This one will have readers either nodding in agreement or stunned at the insult. Gamespy have posted an editorial exploring their list of the 25 Most Overrated Games Of All Time - with Bioware's Neverwinter Nights coming in at 25. Note that this doesn't imply it was bad - just overhyped in Gamespy's estimation. Here's why:Neverwinter pegged the hype meter during the whole D&D 3rd edition hoopla, even going so far as to have a sexxxy Maxim magazine ad worthy of satire. When the game finally came out, the single-player adventure was pretty solid. But the much-hyped DM tools? They were an enigma wrapped in a mystery controlled by an incredibly obtuse and almost completely undocumented scripting system. Forget running an adventure; most budding DMs couldn't figure out how to get doors to work. |
