Zarien Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Would you still feel you got a lot of value out of it as a new player?I've been looking at the games (Both NWN and NWN2) for a while, and noticed they have a nexus site now, which sparked my interest.They went on sale today for $5 and 10$, for NWN Diamond, and NWN2 Platinum respectively, so I'd really appreciate any opinions. Thanks :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naktis Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Both Neverwinter Nights and Neverwinter Nights 2 are excellent games and I strongly recommend to play them both. Just because there are lots of other new games doesn't mean that you shouldn't try the older ones. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tchos Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 (edited) I picked NWN2 up last summer, and I'm completely hooked. Does that count? Edited March 12, 2012 by Tchos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubjectProphet Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Seems like a fair price for a great game. Damn nexus, got me back on it and now I can barely stop playing it. Anywho, buy them BOTH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MokahTGS Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Speaking as a player/builder I can say without any doubt that the NWN series (both 1&2) will give you the greatest bang for your gaming buck, hands down. The sheer scale of the amount of content available is just huge. Even TES game fail to offer as many new stories, and gaming options as this game. And there is more being made all the time. If you buy NWN for $10 that is money very well spent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zarien Posted March 12, 2012 Author Share Posted March 12, 2012 @Tchos: Yeah I think that counts lol Went and bought both games as soon as I got home, can't wait to get playing, looks like it's going to be a good week! Thanks everyone :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the NWN series is still one of the greatest series' ever developed and due to it's unique gameplay, it can easily be purchased either alongside or competitively with Skyrim. The NWN series also offers more moral options than any other game I've yet seen, safely competing with even the Fable series*. * = Although tbh, that's not that hard due to Fable's being more linear than claimed, but that's an argument for another time...

I disagree. Potentially Skyrim could compete, but the modding communities work completely differently. For modding, you will see a majority of new, stand-alone stories in NWN 1/2 where the majority of modding effort for TES game is modding the main game. I'm not sure why that is exactly, but if you are looking at hours of gameplay, I have many more invested in NWN 1/2 than in all of the Beth games combined. Texture packs, while technically mods, are not what I'm talking about when it comes to game play. Morrowwind and Oblivion both had their share of new adventures, but NWN 1/2 still has more.
