So I finally thought okay, I'm going to install NWN2. I do. After installing, I then get asked if I want to update it. Thinking that's always a good thing to do, I say sure why not. It starts downloading an 89 MB patch. Fine.
When that was finished downloading, it installed the patch and then started downloading a second 50.3 MB patch.
Then a 19.9 MB patch.
A 19.4 MB patch.
... and finally another 77.2 MB patch.
BUT THEN WAIT THERE'S MORE! There's another 27.5 MB...
... and then there's another 26.9 MB on top of that! And so by now, you're probably thinking it's finished and there can't possibly be any more than this, right?
~~BZZT!~~ WRONG!
There's another 24.2 MB of course, which gets NWN2 PC English version from 1.11.11.52 to version 1.11.11.53.
That's a total 334.4 MB for 8 patches. The game takes up about 7 gig on the HDD and you just about download the entire last fucking gig.
How many fucking patches does this thing need? Anyway, after thinking I'd install it and spend an hour and a bit playing it, I've instead spent three fucking hours downloading patches. It'd at least be nice if there was a way to toggle the speed on it, so I could browse the net at a decent speed while it was downloading, instead of having this shit clog up my entire connection. :australian broadband:
So far not enjoying the NWN2 experience.
Also:
According to Vista, it's recommended requirements match Crysis?
