The player creation process, one of the most involved in an RPG to date, could keep you busy for hours, especially if you're unfamiliar with D&D. When creating their character, players can choose from an array of eight races (some with two to three sub-races), 12 classes, and (eventually) 16 prestige classes. The strength of the Neverwinter Nights franchise has always been in its customization, and NWN 2 doesn't disappoint. Unfortunately, some all-too-familiar annoyances drag the game down, notably a frustrating camera that hinders as much as helps, and suspect AI.īut first, the good. An engaging sequel to 2002's RPG Neverwinter Nights, Neverwinter Nights 2 offers a fresh single-player campaign, new classes, spells and items from the Dungeons & Dragons 3.5 edition rules, and updated tools, tiles, and other goodies for budding Dungeon Masters.
