5-star DLC with an unofficial bugfix
I always find it difficult to give a numerical ratings, because there are so many nuances that it is often difficult to just assign one numerical value that would account for all of them. This is one of these cases. The module itself is one of my favorites. Wyvern Crown of Cormyr is fairly linear (which is not necessarily bad, as it allows it to be more focused), though there are quite a few side-quests. Note that you often cannot return to areas you finished your adventures in, the only place you'll be visiting regularly is the town hub of Thunderstone. The story is great for the most part, though the ending is unfortunately rushed (it doesn't just "feel" rushed, the DLA team back in the day admitted that it was). The music this module introduced to NWN is my absolute favorite OST in the series - it's mysterious, melancholic and simply beautiful. Horses are advertised as the module's main feature. Many people dislike NWN's horse-riding system and I can understand that opinion, because they are clunky at times. I like them, but even if someone doesn't, they are needed only occassionally in the game. The jousting mini-game is another big thing of the module. It's a rock-paper-scissors variant for the most part, though you can collect rumors about various riders' strategies to increase your chances. I like both horse-riding and jousting as extras that set this module apart from the rest. All in all, I'd easily rate the module as 5 despite the few shortcomings I mentioned, if it wasn't for one thing: the DLC is bugged and you can get stuck in a joust unless you win in one bout, which is very annoying. I prepared a fix (you can find it on Neverwinter Vault by searching for "Taro94's premium module fixes"), but wasn't sure whether I should give it 5 stars if it's broken like that. Still, I believe it is very much worth purchasing, so I wanted my rating to reflect that. Especially with how many silly unwarranted 1/5 reviews it has.
