I have mixed thoughts here. I don't have the game, considering buying it for the editor. However, I made that mistake in D:OS, and feel very shy about doing it again.
Pros:
- There is probably a learning curve here, Celludriel, that might be worth it.
- Editor seems very powerfull
- there is a wiki, with some stuff already, that didn't exist with the D:OS engine
Cons
- As for the Aurora engine not being good, what is the point of having a great editor, if only the devs can use it properly ? I mean, just give NWN2 toolset with up to date graphics, plug ins, and enjoy the show the community is going to give...
- from what I can read here and there, it is complicated to do basic things, as it was in the D:OS editor.
Conclusion:
Hopefully the learning curve make it worth it. However, it seems that we, NWN2 modders, are still orphans...
(btw, I am EAGERLY waiting for the Mount and Blade 2 "engine"...)
Cheers and love, modders
