He's probably referring to the fact that when NWN was released there was widespread criticism that the Official (SP) Campaign was pretty crummy. Bioware's main object with NWN appeared to be producing a program that was multiplayer friendly, and in particular good for use in the traditional D&D manner - with a controlling 'Dungeon Master'.
The 2 add ons since and hundreds of mods seems to have since blunted the criticism that the original SP campaign was poor value for money if you only bought it for SP. And not everyone disliked the original campaign. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
But on the subject of DD2 release - have a look at RPGdot's release list. They have DD2 coming out THIS month!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shhh.gif" alt="" /> On the other hand, they have The Bard's Tale coming out on PS2 and X box this time NEXT year! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
The somewhat out of date RPGdot list EDIT:
OK, since posting the above I emailed RPGdot with some comment on their release list. I got an amazingly quick reply from them saying that they would amend the listings for The Bard's Tale and DD2 (which they now have done).
They now list DD2 as coming out in the first quarter of 2050 - so only 45 years to wait now. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> I can't wait to see what Larian can do with 45 years of development time. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
2050 should be a fabulous year for games as they also list Arx Fatalis 2, Gothic 3, Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion, Jagged Alliance 3, Dragon Wars, and a host of other titles all coming out at the beginning of 2050.
Should be a cracker year - pity I'll be 103 by then. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" />
