NwN2 sucks. It just doesn't have enough sex appeal.

:lol: Okay, so is there anyone who just doesn't like the game? You know, not really impressed, answers with a shrug when asked for an opinion on it, etc.? I'm finding that most people who like it only like it barely so, and those who hate it, do so with a deep, abiding hatred that rips right to the very core of their existence.

The drama is kinda funny.

But drama and conflict elevates an otherwise boring conversation. Calvin says so!

What's funny to me is that a lot of those who hate the game with a passion are the same people who though the original NwN was a masterpiece. Frankly, i don't get it...

I'm still optimistic I will quite like NWN2. It arrived in the post this morning; I had enough time to install it but I've yet to fire ti up. Will do when I get home...

I despised the first one though (the OC at least). It felt just like Dungeon Siege with the D&D ruleset slapped on top. Endless encounters and thousands of rain barrels to check for phat lewt.

This time round I might see what the toolset and multiplayer community is like...

If your saying that I thought NWN1 OC was a masterpiece, shoot me in the fucking brain than skull fuck me in the hole you made.

EDIT: The best NEW game out there right now is Gothic 3. period.

I'm talking about the people at Bioware's, which is where most of the hatred comes from.

I already assumed the codex would have, at worst, nothing but indifferent contempt for this game (though a few might play it for lack of alternatives). I mean, how many here are surprised of shitty RPGs any more?

There exist people at the codex who thought NwN was a masterpiece? I know that there are people who didn't hate it, like Volourn, but I'm not sure anyone would go so far as to call it a masterpiece.

Again, I ask, who on the BIO baords though it was a 'masterpiece'? Wjo is this mysterious person? I doubt this person truly exists?

There are plenty of people I'm sure who liked NWN OC just fine (I'm one of them); but I doubt the number of people who genuinely thought it was a 'masterpiece' outnumbers my fingers on one hand?

So who is this soul that Suite is bringing up?

You haven't been relegated to Volourn status, and if you think you have, you possess a pretty bloated sense of self worth. As of now, you're not rapid-fire posting insane babblings. You just really hate NWN2 and you want all of the Codex to know just how HARD-FUCKING-CORE that hatred is.

Piss poor attempt at that.

Well, since I'm fairly new here, i quess i have to get the "newbie" fire-of-the-youth routine out, kinda like being a teenager. Give me time, then i will give you less "insane babblings" so i wont have to bother the royal, righteous "you" anymore. :wink:

It's about correct criticism, you don't have to go ape shit about it. The only reason the codex appears over the board sometimes is because modern RPGs are exceptionally shitty to begin with.

Note, i haven't played NwN 2 extensively and for all i know could be the biggest piece of shit ever conceived, i'm just saying...

We might as well give it a proper name. How about "The Oblivion Effect"? I know there's worse RPGs out there, but Oblivion has served as a focal point for not only bad RPGs but a fanbase you really wish would spontanously combust.

Crap, now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure I hate Oblivion fanboys much more than the game. At least I got a good 30 hours distraction before I lost interest in playing. With the fanbase, I wouldn't last 5 minutes in a room with some of them before I'd seriously beat the fuck out of someone.

So rational thinking/criticism instead of blind faith is over-criticism nowadays...
