I'm going to wait until the demo comes out or I hear more about it. I hope it makes much more use of voiceover then NWN did - not that I mind reading but hearing someone "talk" to me gets me much deeper into the game.

I wasn't a huge fan of neverwinter nights 1, but I have high hopes for this one. The first time I played NWN 1 was 2 years after it was released so I don't think it was a fair test (dated graphics etc.)
When I played NWN1 I was lucky enough to find a kicka$$ server where there was a DM on constantly....it was a really indepth world he ran.....perma character death, and item loot from players...was great...I hope NWN2 is just as good.
I was a huge fan on NWN 1. Played on a PW, always 1 DM, often up to 10 DMs, 60 slots for players, great world.. Can't wait for NWN 2. The graphics have been updated, the tiles have been removed from the toolset, and it have been updated to D&D 3.5ed rules.. I know what to expect, i know what i jump into, i'm most defently buying it.
Ive had mine reserved for awhile now. I just got the shipping notice and tracking number from Amazon a few ago, will be here Wednsday.

hrm, so how does the online play work with this game? is there like a multiplayer tab on the main screen that brings up a list of servers? or do u gotta join the player created worlds some other way? ive never played so im curious lol. thanks.
I will get it, maybe not tomorrow, GameStop/ EB has a way of charging extra $5 for last few titles I've reserved.. Yes, I prepaid in full for reserve, then you show up for your copy and they hit you for an additional $5... I'll wait a week, also has added virture of getting first reviews... But I cannot deny my Halfling Rogue that I have fully templated on looseleaf paper atm, true pnp'r

One mans trash is another mans gold. I didn't like the first one, though. xD I'll try this out when I get enough money (I just blew all my money on a new PC. xD).
Originally posted by Trinexx Neverwinter Nights was a horrible game, so I dunno how this one is meant to turn out. It is meant to be quite dynamic.
Well, it was nothing as cool as BGs or IDs, but it was still a fun game IMO. Many flaws, but still good.
I can't wait to play NWN2 myself I wish it was BG 3, but since this may never happen (or is it the MMO BioWare are making?)...NWN2 is a decent alternative.

Im probably going to get it, i just want to see some reviews.
Although im CRAVING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Some PnP D&D, just chill for hours and hours with a group of real pros and such. DAMN i want some D&D. I hope theres a gaming convention coming up, they always have the best RPG games going.
Got the game yesterday night. Played it until 4 pm , and had to wake up for work ... So i am bit tired now.
If you have any questions about the game , feel free to ask.
Let me just sum it up.
If you are D&D fan (like i am) this game brings D back to d&d ... whatever that means What i really want to say. It has adherence to 3.5 rules + faerun rules + much more of originall NWN It has gameplay functionality of Baldurs Gate And the story is better than anything i seen so far (as i only played first chapter, i can guarantee that)
And for the most - this is the first D&D game - that really made me have that "I AM THERE" feeling
In one word. If you like D&D , you better dont return home without this game.
If you never played D&D , get this game and see what all the hubbub is about

From playing with the toolset it appears you can record your OWN voice overs for conversations!

I used to like these view from above style rpg's.... but not anymore =/
You can play it 3rd person or top down. They added that into NWN1 FYI although it was sorta wonky. NWN2 is basically designed to look like a standard 3rd person RPG.
Thats what they claim anyway, there are several dev movies to take a look at on Gamespot

Your opinion is duly noted. And discarded NWN2 is getting prime location on my hard drive a.s.a.p.

Oh why haven't I got a call about my preorder box yet!?
Not a fan of the D&D rules, but when you find a server with likeminded people to play with it can be nirvana and you forgive Wizards of the Coast.
