Review

 

Following on from the critical & commercial success of Neverwinter Nights comes the much awaited sequel Neverwinter Nights 2.

Bards sing tales of heroes from ages past, but never have the Forgotten Realms so desperately needed a champion. Years have passed since the war between Luskan and Neverwinter, almost enough time for the wounds of war to heal. But the brief peace the Realms have known may be at an end. Tension growing between the mighty city-states means the Sword Coast again teeters on the edge of open war. Unnoticed, a greater danger stalks the City of Skilled Hands. Unbeknownst to the denizens of the North, deep in the Mere of Dead Men, dark forces from across the Realms have been rallied under the banner of a legendary evil. If left unchallenged, all of the North is doomed to fall under its power.

Even in this darkest hour, hope remains. A mysterious relic is borne to Neverwinter in the hands of a lone hero so that its secrets may be unlocked - secrets that carry the fate of all the North. So begins an epic tale of shattered alliances, noble acts and dark deeds to be told across the Realms for generations to come.

Customer rating: 5 out of 5 stars Good game, worth buying

Though it took me a few attempts to get the settings so that it played properly, I am glad I did. While the game is not as...ordered or full as NWN, it is good nonetheless. Some of the spell graphics and as flashy as I like them, but they work just as well.
The companions are necessary for some parts of the story, unfortunately, as I like doing things myself. Other than that, very good.

Customer rating: 5 out of 5 stars Perfection or Vanity? Very close to the first option

Though the game had some major bugs when I bought it (back in the day it was released), it was more entertaining than any game I have encountered. Sure the controls were, and are clumsier than in the first NWN, but the incredibly addictive story, scenes, character customization, balance, variation and graphics do pay back more than well! Five stars no doubt. Best game I ever played, along with Mass Effect and TESIV: Oblivion.

On Windows XP I met no problems. (Athlon 3800+, HD3850 OC, 2GB RAM)

On Vista (Q9450 @ 3,9 GHz, SLI-8800GT/512MB/OC, 8GB RAM), Windows Aero does not seem to turn itself off until you alt+tab out of the game and back, increasing performance by couple hundred percent.

Customer rating: 5 out of 5 stars Good value for less than a tenner.
