Neverwinter Nights Add-On Analysed

Posted by simoniker on from the always-summer-days dept.

Thanks to the nice people at Gamespot, we have an in-depth look at the first expansion to Neverwinter Nights - Shadows Of Undrentide. This add-on to the popular PC RPG title, which ships in the US on June 17th, is easily classified as 'more of a good thing', with an all-new story, prestige classes to extend your character's abilities, and the vital Bigby's Crushing Hand spell. You can find more info on the official Shadows Of Undrentide site.

    It's not whining. It's constructive criticism.

    Like it or not, it's a lot easier to read under 30 comments by people who, for the most part, have something useful to say, and the experience to back it up.
    Have you actually read the comments? IMHO, 90% is garbage. The median number of posts per article is 17. Of those 17, 4 have a score of 3 or more. Personally I felt that two of those posts were irrelevant. When one considers the size of the Slashdot audience, and target demographic, it is quite strange to see so little activity on games.slashdot.org. I believe that the problem is caused by the low quality of stories; esp. when compared to the front page.

    As it currently stands, I don't think I regularly check up the games section. I'll stick to the front page and developer section.
