(12-27-2012, 01:20 AM)Bridge Wrote: As much as I appreciate Neverwinter Nights' faithfulness to the pen-and-paper D&D game mechanics and the great story/music/gameplay/everything, I hate the interface. It feels more like using an editor, with the dialogue being nothing more than a pop-up (probably the worst dialogue system in an RPG) and the camera system oddly distanced from the gameplay most of the time. It just rubs me the wrong way and I wish it had a more traditional third person or semi-isometric camera system and a more involving dialogue scheme.



Also, and this is much more minor, I don't really feel the player needs to know what the game is doing when it's loading. All these modules when you go to different areas, it really brings you out of the game in my opinion. Anyway, NWN is one of the more moddable games out there so most of my complaints are fixable, but I prefer to experience stuff the way it was intended, absolutely unadultered, before I install mods.
The camera system didn't disturb me that much. I remember that the game had its flaws, but it was so long ago that I played it. The thing I remember really liking was the customizability(?) of the character you created. So many choices!

I remember stepping away from the roleplaying part of it, playing on a pvp multiplayer server. You would basically "cheat" a character to maximum level and create gear for it using the level editor. The server restricted use of certain stats which would make you "immortal" or "overpowered". Anyway, the end result was probably the funniest pvp rpg I've ever had! Constantly pondering builds and tactics, familiarity with the users and a sort of reputation once you started winnning against more seasoned players.

aah... sweet nostalgia.
