Neverwinter Nights Add-On Analysed
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.
This expansion seems to 'merely' add a bunch of classes and abilities. The extra 20 hours of game time isn't much. And perhaps I'm a tool (okay, a definite) but I just don't get much replay value out of games of this type. However, for those running a campaign, or wishing for more out of the original, this sounds like a decent expansion.
