Neverwinter Nights 2 is much better than this game.

[Sean Maxhell]

I've played Neverwinter Nights 2 single player, online, and hundreds of custom adventures from 2006 to 2022.
Only Elden Ring managed to get me away from that game.

I think that in a couple of years we won't hear about this BG3 anymore, and the large community of multiplayer D&D lovers will still find themselves orphaned of a multimedia product in step with the times.

I know that NWN2 is a little dated in terms of graphics, but from a gaming D&D point of view it is still the most rewarding option.

Well yeah, I've played it a lot, and also developed three very popular downloadable vault projects, especially my very very very own re-imagining of Dark Souls 3 and a Town Simulator.

Even NWN is better than NWN2.

Points of view. To me they are practically the same game.
Although I know many still play the first one because it's so much easier to make your own adventures.
For me it's always been laziness, but it makes no difference: this BG3 won't replace NwN or Nwn2.

"this game i'm hyperfixated on is better, because-"

yes. we know you feel this way by that description alone lmao

[Lord Adorable]

I disagree, so that balances it out.

So why are you here and not playing that then?

[Slithy]

So I just recently went down nostalgia road with a lot of RPGs including NWN and personally believe that BG3 is definitely way better. But NWN2? Are you farming jester awards or something because that is a great way to earn them. NWN you have some wiggle room with but NWN2 was awful.

NWN 2 had some really awesome things going for it. I cared about every character to include those whom betrayed you. The mechanics were a bit wonky but I loved all the spells. The court scene was awesome and Tyr help you if you were unkind to Shandra. The last fight was something. I replay it now and then.

If you're a romantic at heart especially (or just like the ruleset) and like high fantasy it is definitely worth seeking out.

I wouldn't do either game service by comparing them though. I *wish* we lived in a time where that game was a bestseller. But we don't.

I will never let it go. It is on my Bugout Game drive (More like if I am stuck with X games this is what I bring.) LOL

Besides, I use the Aurora Toolset.

NWN2? That game I never finished because theres game breaking bugs that were never patched, that one? I enjoyed it, love that its 3.5 and wish we got more 3.5 games, but no by every metric BG3 is a better game xD

Which is exactly what your OP is. So what's the point of this entire thread?

[Rin Palora]

Real time with pause makes it inferior from the get go for me.

If they add a module editor like NWN then it will be just as good if not better. I loved NWN so a campaign editor would be a dream come true.
