    The Neverwinter Nights multiplayer project A Land Far Away has posted their report from E3.

    Before I go on to some tidbits I gathered at E3, I want to share my overall impression about NWN at E3:
    It is everything we asked it to be. I can still see some areas for improvement, but on the very sweet gaming rigs Infogrames had set up on the display floor, NWN looked gorgeous and played sweet. The gameplay in fact was so nice that I quickly stopped noticing it. I can easily see players, once they get the hang of the radial menu, ignoring essentially transparent gameplay issues and focusing on the story and action unfolding around them. Neverwinter Nights had the nicest overall graphics I have seen on any game, and the ease of use was standout (but quickly faded top the background as it should). If you were worried about NWN, if you thought it might not live up to the hype, set your mind at ease. With the sole exception of some kind of Domain Name Server (DNS) forwarding, the game looks like it will make everyone happy (currently the game only forwards via portals listing IP address. The much vaunted feature of linking servers together won't be much good to people without static IP's unless this is fixed.)

    You can read everything here.
