Thread 723072809

Just finished the main campaign (the wailing death) and it felt like a tech demo, i'm now unsure if i should play the 2 main dlcs, are hordes of the underdark and shadows of the undrentide tech demo too?

Because that's effectively what it is, even if it does have some neat as hell moments.
The DLCs are the real game. They even start a new story with a new character.

You got it wrong like anon said. DLC are the main juice.

>>723072809 (OP)
TWD is literally that, just an example of what players could themselves make if they wanted. It was the big selling point of the game, alongside persistent worlds. Virtual DnD at its finest.

My condolences. You will never get those hours back

>>723073456
than why do people say it's better than the main module of nwn2 when it's clearly not?

>>723073971
I've literally never heard anyone say this. I've heard some say that the DLC modules are better than NWN2's OC, which I'd say is true. But then MotB blows everything out of the water.

>>723073971
I have no idea. NWN2's OC can be a bit boring but it's a competent single player experience.
I'll chalk it up to out of control hyperbole.
Even the wailing death isn't that unplayable.

>>723074035
I have, a lot.

>>723072809 (OP)
I played and completed NWN but can't remember a thing about it.

>>723074065
>I have, a lot.
I'd put it down to witless groupthink desu. Wailing Death's not exactly interesting, but for a simple rags to rapeforce progression it's quite enjoyable and you scale quickly enough you can test out various classes.

Both DLCs are vastly superior than main game, specially the second one. Go for it, you will have a pleasant surprise.

>>723074075
aribeth's a hoe, that's all you have to remember, but apparently she redeems herself in one of the dlcs or so i've heart

>>723073971
i heard some people say that

>>723072809 (OP)
play hordes of the underdark, shadows of the undrentide is mid but still better than the original module

>>723074805
Then you took your meds.

>>723074348
She's a traitor, not a whore. They framed and killed her husband, so she joined the dark side.

In the 2nd expansion pack you go to Hell and meet her there, she becomes a party member and a potential love interest. She stays a ghost the whole way through though, you don't magically resurrect her.

>>723076704
You can redeem her right? Turn her back into a Paladin from a Blackguard.

>>723076806
You can, yes. It ends terribly.

>>723076704
so the hero of neverwinter kills her canonically? or could end up being executed by nasher u guess

>>723072809 (OP)
The OC campaign basically is that - it was included largely to advertise the Aurora toolset. The expansion campaigns are more robust.

Just start with Hordes. You start at level 15, the story is good, and the only relevant thing about first expansion is the kobold.

Gonna hijack the thread to ask about the current state of Neverwinter Nights 2 EE.
Is it better than the original yet? Controller support aside.
Are there any new mods that make it worth migrating over?

>>723077725
Last I checked, it was bugged out the ass. Ended up refunding and just playing Complete Edition.

Which premium modules/community modules should I try? I played Tyrants of Moonsea and thought it was pretty good

>>723077427
Canonically, she was convinced to surrender by the Hero of Neverwinter, but was promptly executed by order of Lord Nasher Alagondar.

I see why Aielund and Swordflight are Peak nwn. Are there more modules like those? I like the CEP content a Lot, used to tamper with It in the toolset just for Fun 21 years Ago.

>>723077571
Also the Relic of the Reaper. But overall, Shaodws of Undrentide is a better low-to-high-level adventure than the OC.

Dance with Rogues is peak

>>723079574
Peak dogshit.

>>723079574
Isn't that the one where you play as a chick that can get fucked by dogs and shit?
That's the kind of thing one of those fat tiktok broads that cream themselves over the minotaur milking book would enjoy.
Is there an equivalent for dudes?

>>723080125
>Is there an equivalent for dudes?
Yes
A Dance with Rogues

>>723078760
lmao don't they say multiple times "nasher has learned from fenthik's execution and its consequences, he's show mercy this time"

>>723072809 (OP)
NWN1 main campaign is genuinely crap. The expansions are better. The modules even more so.

>>723081068
Turns out, nah.

>>723079474
>Playing SoU
>Act 2
>find that isekai tome about Karsus being stuck in hell getting gangbanged by succubi as a *punishment*
The orb

>>723081068
Nasher turns out to be unwilling to pardon a traitor, and has Aribeth hanged. The bitter argument between the Hero and Lord Alagondar regarding the execution resulted in the Hero leaving Neverwinter in disgust, and Nasher having many of the Hero's contributions stricken from official record.

>>723080609
Explain.

Peak.

>>723072809 (OP)
The hate for the original campaign is overblown and unwarranted.

>>723077725
If you like more intro screen (around 10 more iirc) and more bugs you get the D&D NWN 2 EE instead the GOG complete edition
