I don't like NWN, and therefore I have always had discussions with a friend of mine, who is also a big RPG gamer (like me).
He likes NWN, and I don't that's why we have lots of discussions. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" />
So, why don't I like NWN ?
There are basically two reasons for it :
A) It was halfway translated into german.
Don't be fooled by what I just wrote: I meant it ! NWN was halfway translated into german, which means half of the text / program is german, half is still english. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" />
I think, a company, which isn't able to properly a game into ANY language doesn't deserve my money. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" />
B) The Single-Player Campaign (someone at RPGDot.con even called it a "Demo" <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" /> is simply too boring as far as I have heard ( and I usually collect lots of infor,ation before buying a game ! ) : It seems to me like a simple demonstration of what the Multiplayer Part could be like. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" /> And what the game could be like with well written modules. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" />
In fact, NWN didn't receive much points by some gaming mas just because of that: They tested NWN only with what shipped with it, and decidec that it wasn't as good as it could've been.
What's more: I don't like the idea behind this: The devs emphasized the Multiplayer part, leaving the Soloplayer part behind. I won't búy a MUltiplayer-oriented game (that's what NWN is for me) when I'm not able to play it (I cannot play within a LAN or by Internet: I don't have friends for that and playing by Internet would still be too expensive for me... )
In short: I don't like NWN because it's so MP oriented, and because it was so badly translated.
