Neverwinter Nights 2

If by Bioware's "design", you're referring to the battle style, it was present in the original Everquest which predates your precious gay-ass Star Wars game by half a decade, n00b.

Everquest had a three-member party with controllable teammates where the battles unfolded in both real-time and turn-based execution?

And which Star Wars game is he refering to?

Baldur's Gate came out in 1998. Everquest came out in 1999.

So, it's your contention that XII is ripping off BG's design? Or that Everquest ripped off BG? Both are serious reaches.

I know a bunch of you assholes are playing Square-Enix's sad rip-off of Bioware's design, but who got this?

Aside from some battle system similarities, FFXII is a much different experience than any Bioware RPG, and hardly a sad attempt at anything as it's very well made.

Anyway, it sucks to hear about the bugs in NWN2. By the time I upgrade my computer and play it, it will probably be patched up pretty good though.

Truth. The real reason to play NWN2, like its predecessor, won't be apparent for another 6 months or so anyway.

Indeed. I shouldn't even have taken the bait, but, eh, it's an excruciatingly slow work day.

As for NWN2, I'll be waiting since I, too, lack the caliber of machine sufficient to do justice to its purported graphical splendor. That, and I still need to start/finish BGII (definitely) and NWN1 (admittedly unlikely now that I've waited this long).
