New Preview of Neverwinter Nights

Posted by Hemos on from the must-wipe-droll-from-mouth dept.

H3resy wrote to us with a new preview of Neverwinter Nights. The game continues to look great - and combined with its release date being right around Warcraft III, I suspect sleep will not be an option.

    I'm betting Morrowind will turn out to be as "Free-form" as its predecessor, Daggerfall. As in "free of form." Daggerfall was a souless, monotonous, not to mention bug-ridden, piece of junk.

    Sure, there were a few masichists who enjoyed the repetitive, thinly-veiled FedEx quests... the cornucopia of completely useless character skills... the game-killing bugs that were so bad that Bethseda, instead of correcting them, included and encouraged the use of cheats to get around them... the huge, random, recycled-texture-laden dungeons used for every two-bit quest... the complete lack of meaningful NPC interaction...

    But they were idiots.

    I have every expectation Morrowind will be just as bad, if prettier, at least. I wish it were otherwise but I have no confidence in that company.

    Well done Tomb of Horrors? Impossible ;) I can't wait to see it either, but it will be unplayable just like the real thing, at least if it's true to the module.
