Well, there's Neverwinter Nights 2.

Neverwinter Nights is unique, apart from the sequel, there aren't really any other games like it. But if you're looking for older RPGs with similar graphics, you could check out Dungeon Siege, Dungeon Lords, or Avencast: Rise of the Mage. Or, more similar to NWN2, Drakensang and Drakensang: The River of Time.

To be clear, I'm not talking about the official single player campaign but about the game's many different facets, single player, multiplayer, modding, even guiding a group as dungeon master. The official single player content is not that unique, but the combination of all the different parts is, and especially the possibility for everyone to create their own adventures or host their own online worlds. I know of no other game editor that is this versatile and at the same time easy to work with, even for beginners. There are myriads of free, fan-made but high quality adventures and campaigns to download and dozens of multiplayer online worlds to play on, all created by a prolific modding community.

Not trying out the Balder's Gate series is a real shame as it's one of the greatest CRPGs of all time. But everyone's taste is different of course. I just think if you liked this game you like them too. All the BioWre D&D rpgs were excellent.

Come to think of it, the only thing I can think of that comes close to the style of Neverwinter nights is another BioWare game called Dragon Age. Maybe give those a try, they are all fantastic.

Ah, true, Dragon Age. Maybe also Knights of the Old Republic and The Witcher. If I'm not mistaken they are both based on a variation of NWN's engine.

And if it's only the age that keeps you from trying Baldur's Gate, there are more modern games trying to mimick the style, like Pillars of Eternity, Tyranny, Pathfinder: Kingmaker etc.

Jade Empire too.

Torchlight 2 is an action hack 'n slash, with charming graphics, from around the same time.

Oh yeah, I thought of mentioning Old republic but it's SciFi and I figured they wanted fantasy
But yes, very much in the same vein as NWN

Please note their are dozens of mods for NWN at the NWN fan sight. All of them are based of the NWN engine.

That's true. NWN is the game that keeps on giving long after the initial price. It's had a strong fan base ever since it was released :) tons and tons of fan made content.

I guess we should mention The Elder Scrolls series, of which Skyrim is perhaps the best.

It's not quite D&D, modding is harder, but gameplay feels somewhat similar.

Echo that BG series is highly worthwhile, too.

i will suggest Dragon Age Origins and Inquisition, they are the spiritual succesors and in my opinion they are fantastic, they are basically NWN 3, but they needed to removed some D&D aspect, for example you wont see the Dice throws and stuff

Also Valheim reminds me a lot NWN1 specially my days of multiplayer

I give my eye teeth to see Baldur's gate redone in D& D 3.5
