Neverwinter Nights 2: Enhanced Edition - July 25th 2025

That's an Enhanced Edition I can get behind. Instant buy if it works well. I tried playing this a few years back and it didn't work well.

never got into NWN because i was a dumbass when younger and didn't appreciate RPG's nearly as much as i do now. long as reviews are solid i'm totally on board

Never did try NWN 2. Definitely grabbing this.

I thought this had a thread. were we talking about it in the BG3 thread, or gaming news?

some key info to think about for those considering to buy.

-Enhanced edition. not a remake. not a REMASTER either. this is more like the baldurs gate: enhance editions that came out a few years ago. works on modern hardware, new textures. but the art is still the same. Added gay shit I'm sure.

-Neverwinter nights 2 had HORRIBLE camera controls. it came out in 2006.
it was directed by Chris Avellone. core story is ok. Mask of the betrayer DLC is consider top 3 best of all time.

-NWN 1 and 2's status was also both built on modding, and player campaigns. you can still find some repositories. but, good luck..
without the persistent online communities, etc, its probably not really the same. its like playing warcraft 3 without custom maps.

maybe this EE, will smooth out the gameplay and controls a bit. but, otherwise I watched someone play nwn2 for the first time last year. and it didn't really hold up well.

-its 3.5e
