    Here are today's Neverwinter Nights 2 forum highlights, collected by NWVault. Please take into account that these are only single parts of various threads and should not be taken out of context. Bear in mind also that the posts presented here are copied as-is, and that any bad spelling and grammar does not get corrected on our end.

    NWN2 Edges and What I See
    Actually, I believe those are "unofficial" from what I understand. The only "official" shots are the B&W ones you see in the back of the Dragonshard manual.

    However, to answer your question about the trees...you can walk up to those trees. They are not part of the new "edge of the world" system.

    Also, this game really looks nothing like Kotor2. Kotor2 was not a normal mapped game. Again, those high rez color screen shots are old and unofficial.


    The french get first official color screens!
    For the record the purple thing in these "unofficial" shots is a dead Blade Golem. ;)

    The unofficial thing is related to the fact that only "official" shots of anything at this point are the B&W ones in the back of the Dragonshard manual.

    The fact that these shots were released in an "unofficial" manner (hence making them unofficial) is being addressed.

    The sword is placeholder art. You can tell mostly because it doesn't have any specularity.

    To be completely honest, the game doesn't even LOOK like those screens anymore.

    In the current build of the game we have stars, skys with moving clouds, celestial bodies that rise and set, fog that moves in and out depending on the time of day, fogs of different colors, and much more.

    I think the PC Gamer in December will make a LOT of people happy.
