    I am surprised that no-one has mentioned the game since it has been released. I just got a copy very cheap from Play.com (£14!) and I am not disappointed, even though its not a true M&M game IMO. This game is very similar to Morrowind and Vampire the Masquerade.

    What I like:

    You use the enviroment to your advantage
    You can see your weapons in use this time
    You can use many creative ways to kill your enemies
    Good graphics
    Voice acting is good
    Kicking enemies out of windows to their death :demonic:
    Using traps meant for your char against enemies


    What I miss

    Wizard eye and the wizard eye sound effects
    The variety of spells and spell schools
    Having a party and spending hours choosing class and skills
    The freedom to go where you choose

    I talked about it. No one noted. I basicly agree with everything you said, and I want to know if you know anything about the history of the world.

    It's a fun game: decent story to keep you moving and not bored (*cough ElderScroll games *cough). But, alas, it's a one trick pony. The single player is essentially on rails so once you finish, there is little need to finish again (one or two actual options exist). As for multi, well, i couldn't tell you but i hear that, when its not glitching to the nine-hells, its fun.

    I played it for a bit, but NWN2 took most of my gamingtime away, i guess i'll pick up the pace later on. So far it looked good, and it was quite challenging too as far as i recall.

    It was fun, and there were a few alternate endings...or seemed like there should be before my harddrive crashed. I haven't reinstalled as of yet, and probably won't since i got NWN2.
