Gamer's Pulse published a preview of Neverwinter Nights: Shadows of Undrentide earlier today. Again, here's an excerpt:
Bioware|Floodgate is also working a lot at differentiating the different normal classes from one another in the expansion pack. An example of this is that druids are now capable of speaking with animals, who may provide them with some extra information (or perhaps even a sidequest). No other class can speak with animals (with the potential exception of rangers). However, on the topic of rangers, they can now track. Tracks are objects that can be laid down, with scripting events associated with them. While a normal fighter may notice tracks, and a barbarian may be able to tell you what create made them, the ranger can glean even more information, such as the number of creatures and how old the tracks are. All of this is done with the scripting, so members of the NWN community will be able to use features such as this in their upcoming modules as well. |
