Can't find a demo out there. Anyone planning on getting this? How good is it? A let down like NWN I?

There isn't a demo out yet afaik...and according to the first reviews I read the game isn't the RPG juggernaut we all hoped for. I mean, the general consensus is that the game is cool and atmospheric, but also that it's been sloppily made and contains quite a few bugs...that's the second time Obsidian manages to mess up a much-anticipated sequel by being sloppy (KotOR II anyone?).

I guess I'll buy it when it goes budget or something...meanwhile I'll be having a lot of fun with (apparently) real top games like Medieval II and Dark Messiah. And Football Manager 2007. And hope Bioware or Bethesda come back to the scene with another top class RPG (Bethesda is working on Fallout 3).

About NwN1, may i suggest not playing this after a game of IWD2 or BG2. NwN will suck so bad, you will wonder how on earth the game is so popular!

Here's a

Mm, about the general reaction I've been hearing: good game, definitely worth playing, but buggy. I'm getting sick and tired of playing bugged games on release...I mean, a few bugs in MASSIVE games like Oblivion, ok...but when a 'normal' game is riddled with bugs - minor or otherwise- I get annoyed. That just means they haven't thoroughly tested it, which means that they're taking you for a suckah.

I don't know ANY other industry where it's acceptable to release 'broken' products and just patch them along the way. Sure, it happens in other industries, but nowhere as systematic as in the games world. It sucks.

So, I'm just gonna wait until the game is properly patched and (hopefully) downpriced. I'll be replaying Kotor 2 in a few weeks too, now that the fanbase (!) has almost completed its restoration project. I mean, wtf...can you imagine a group of fans working on a movie to make up the crappy original editing?


P.S. moving this topic to RPG forum

Well how should i put it, the game is friggin awesome . It improves on every aspect of the previous NWN apart from the loading times.

The first thing i (or all who played NWN) noticed the more natural feal to the protagonist and his followers. They move more like a living being should move and they feel more "human"

The enviroment has more natural feel to it aswell. Not saying NWN had something wrong but the game felt more like someones dream rather than plague torn city (comparing to the original story excl expansions).

I've encountered some small errors here and there, mostly about peoples text lines, but never had the game crash on me.

I cant really tell how far i am, without giving away any spoilers, lets just say that they call me Captain now

And now the reason why i am writing this posting, I need help with a riddle. Basically what i need are three numbers:
