Pros: Amazing Aurora Toolset Cons: Nothing special about the single player game.
Im a big fan of Bioware games. The Baldurs Gate games are some of my favorite games, especially the second one. In fact, I dont think Ive seen a bad game come out of Bioware, and thats just not something you usually see. Every...
Pros: Visuals, customizability, unlimited replayability. Cons: Included single player mode is not Bioware Quality, poor sounds, some balance issues.
Neverwinter Nights was probably one of the most anticipated games for me. Offering a revamped visual engine and an awesome quest tool, NWN (as fans call it) has an almost unlimited replay value.
Pros: Flexible 3rd editionD&D ruleset; Powerful adventure editor, DM modes Cons: Harsh system requirements, interface can be clunky at times
Bioware Corp, the group responsible for bringing the epic computer role playing game (CRPG) back to the forefront with the hit Baldur's Gate series, is back with Neverwinter Nights. With promises of a robust scenario editor and the ability to...
Pros: Wonderful story lines and characters Cons: Some bugs, needs a good video card
Wow what can I say, I LOVE this game. The last game I can compare to this was GemStone III (another review) which was strictly a MUD text game, a bit like controlling what happens in a book. I had stopped playing that game after 6 years because of the...
Pros: Infinite replayability, great mulitplayer, fun. Cons: sometimes slow, difficult to go up in levels.
Neverwinter Nights is a massive game. Even people who don’t like role playing games will find themselves obsessed with Neverwinter Nights. The game starts off by introducing the story. You are in a time of turmoil for the vast town of Neverwinter. A ...
Pros: Nice idea, create your own modules Cons: Too buggy, annoying interface, high system requirements
Buggy games like Neverwinter Nights are the reason why I stopped playing computer games and switched to consoles. This is the first computer game I’ve bought since last Christmas, and I am reminded why. This game is so buggy and slow that I cannot...
Pros: Good graphics, excellent multi-player potential, toolkit for designing your own adventures. Cons: Not strictly D&D 3rd edition, toolkit learning curve is high.
Neverwinter Nights Manufacturer: Bioware
Platform: PC
Category: Role-playing
Genre: Fantasy
Price: $54.99 (USD)
ESRB Rating: Teen
Pros: Dragons! Superb implementation of 3rd edition rules. Good base and good length campaign. Cons: Visually (graphics) looking dated now.
I am a geek. There I said it. Ever since I could read I have been into reading fantasy books. I have table roleplayed, played computer games into the night and from the early ages of computing I have loved dungeons and dragons esq games but there has ...
Pros: It is a nice game. Good story, more user friendly than Baldur's Gate series. Cons: Crashes more than Evil Keneivel. Minimum requirements are false.
Here is my reveiw of the final release. Once again, Epinions doesn't have a section for it, so I put it here.
GAMEPLAY:
Neverwinter Nights (from here on described as NWN) is the next chapter, or rather "incarnation" or the long running...
Pros: Entertaining with nice visual effects. Good story overall. Cons: Stiff graphics with a lot of loss from the traditional D&D games
We are going on a classic Dungeons and Dragons adventure. I can't wait to assemble my party, work everyone's strengths and weaknesses, and then go out into our isometric world just like Baldur's Gate (BG), and solve some super story. Wait. That's not ...
Pros: All the elements of D&D at the game master's fingertips. Amazingly rendered 3d characters and areas can be built and added. Finally a true multiplayer D&D computer game! Cons: We will have to wait and see.
Ever since I was a young snip of a lad in my seventh and final year of primary school (Probably better known to those in the USA as "elementary School") I have been an avid fan of TSR's classic Advanced Dungeons & Dragons gaming...
Pros: Good multiplay and sound effects Cons: boring single player, primitive graphics
Overview I was sorely, disappointed with the single player experience that Neverwinter Night's offered. A linear story that I completely lost interest in after the first chapter or two was not what I was expecting when I purchased this game. ...
Pros: Solid RPG experience, lots of options, beautiful graphics, a rich storyline, excellent sound and controls Cons: Interface and rules take some learning, some elements differ from tabletop AD&D rulesets.
Neverwinter Nights stands out in the crowded mass of PC Role-Playing titles for two primary reasons: 1) It lives up to its hype, and 2) It actually possesses a “story”.
Merely saying this is a good game doesn’t do the title...
Pros: Excellent translation of classic game, cool graphics, long gameplay. Cons: Tricky ending, repetitive quests, lack of party flexibilty.
There have been countless computer games over the years that have attempted to recreate the magic that sent thousands of nerds scurrying into their basements to play Dungeons and Dragons for hours on end. Very few of these games have been particularly ...
Pros: Good 3d engine, Fairly good adaptation of 3E rules, need I go on? Cons: A resource hog, and a tad buggy
