NWN 2

[stingerhs]

in light of this being a forum dedicated to a great RPG series, i think we could use an 'infusion' of news about another RPG. anyways, i picked up this bit of news about Neverwinter Nights 2.

 

interestingly, OE decided to use a completely new graphics system while largely keeping the original Bioware RPG engine intact. the section on modding support was something else that i think a lot of us will also find a bit interesting.

 

so, thoughts on the news and the game???

Seems to be a trend - Obsidian is making sequels to Bioware's games. KOTOR II, NWN II... and hopefully, Jade Empire II.

This news makes me start to believe that Obsidian and Bioware are planing on making a partnership. Looks like they will be working together from now on. (And, hopefully, together on KOTOR 3)

actually, Bioware already announced that one of their upcoming projects is indeed Jade Empire II, so don't count on that one heading over to Obsidian anytime soon.

That's actually very cool. When Obsidian took over KotOR, I at first assumed it was a hostile thing -- Bioware and LA got pissed off at one another, and decided to part ways. But really, they seem to be getting on rather well. It wouldn't surprise me to see a merger in the future now. That seems to be the way industry is going. Then again, Bioware's always bucked industry trends, so who knows?
