NWN is one of (if not my all time) favourite game, both offline and online.
I played through the NWN2 SP campaign and thoroughly enjoyed it ( though I started and never finished the final expansion.)
The biggest disappointment for me was the changes to multiplayer that made it a lot harder to drop into servers. If I am recalling correctly, you had to pre-download (outside of the game) the meshes for landscapes before joining a server. It was a huge barrier to entry, and even dedicated communities that tried to move from 1 over to 2, faltered.

That was a pretty solid RPG. The first expansion is exceptionally good.

Was this the one with the weirdest camera system I've ever encountered in a 3d game? I remember just constantly fighting with it.
Also D&D 3e is not something I want to go back to. What a janky system.

Yes! I had put off playing it based on the rumor. I'm looking forward to it!

Ah I remember trying to play this on a below min requirements gpu when it came out. Besides low performance, the sky was super messed up.
Can't wait to dive in with an utterly overpowered pc in July.
