Neverwinter Nights: 10/10 points |
Ok.. I'm voting a 10.. do I believe it's a 10.. no but I would honestly say a 9.. and there are people throwing this game 1's.. that's total crap and it doesn't deserve that..
Why do people not like this game?
Initially buggy
Not perfect
Doesn't have everything that pen and paper does
Now look at those 3.. does any game you have ever played .. even the good ones not have those problems? Of course they all have them.. The problem is these people thought that the hype meant they would get everything they ever wanted and that didn't happen. Bioware never even claimed that would happen and many times told people what was going to come out, but people never listened and so were pissed when the game came out.
Ok.. so what is good about the game that would make me give it a 9 or a 10
Good graphics - better than DS and many other recent CRPGs - the multisource lighting is simply awesome, and with full AA, and high res this game looks sweet..
The animations are simply amazing compared to anything similar (DS).. that game sucked in animation, in this you will see parry's, ducks, dodges.. etc. It really looks nice...nuff said
Good gameplay - it's fun, is it as good as BG II? Not quite but it's not far off, it's single player so if you like the strats available with the group of course you are going to think a little less.. but that's part of the genre.. if you like clicking of course you are going to like diablo.
Simply awesome toolset - is it buggy and is it hard to add some things?
Of course.. but what isn't? It's definetly easier than making HL into counterstrike but yes it takes work. Is it hard to learn what to do? No.. it's pretty easy, I say if you can learn HTML you can learn to script in this game. If you can't.. well then nothing is going to help you. The tools could be better but considering what they were trying to do I think they accomplshed more than what any other company would have.
Fun multiplayer - don't like the Singleplayers ruleset.. use the HCR modules online. They are very nice for those who would rather stick to true D&D 3rd ed. There are some pretty original modules coming out and the community is doing a better job than I have seen with anything else considering the time. |
