    I can't wait for this expansion and it's the new content that I'm interested in more than the new campaign. However, the guys working on the campaign (Flood Gate) could make a really cool campaign based on the fact that many of those guys have made really great games in the past.

    I think I'm also more intersted in the new content more than the actual game that will be packaged with it. The more the persistant worlds I play on have to work with, the better I say. Official ruins....snow....deserts? Sounds like a good plan to me.

    kinda depends how much they ask for it. $20? I'm there. $30? I'll take a good hard look at what it adds first

    I'm not really sure what the point of Shadows of Undrentide is. It doesn't add anything substantially new, and it doesn't even raise the XP cap, or allow you to play with your high-level characters. You have to start with a level 1 character again. So, what, I should shell out money again to finally get a decent single player campaign that was missing in the original package? Eh.

    I won't buy any expansions for NWN, because it is too slow and buggy (WinXP... :( )

    I was really looking forward to the inevitable expansion pack because I was under the impression that it would be a continuation of the original campaign, of life after Morag, and wanted to see what the high-level abilities would be like. Looks like I was wrong on both counts. I'm pretty disappointed about that and see no real benefit in buying it now.

    I have not been pleased with NWN as of yet, possibly because it has a very hard time running on my comp. If many players say that an expansion is worth buying, I may go for it, otherwise I have better uses for the money.
