Regardless of it's rocky beginnings, this game is a worthy addition to any PC game collection. The main campaign is a monster of an adventure and a thrill every minute. Mask of the Betrayer is a fantastic follow-up with a much more grim and dark premise with visual storytelling unseen in many RPG's. Mask of Zehir brings the much requested feature of creating and running an entire party of your own creation a la Baldur's Gate albeit with a much shorter story mode. Even once you've conquered everything this collection has to offer, you can keep your game going with fan-made content from the NWN Vault website.

NWN2 is great. Mask of Betrayer is phenomenal. Storm of Zehir is just average. You can skip SoZ if you want, but make sure you play MoB! The epic story, the player choice, the multiple endings... It's the best RPG I've played so far.

I have been playing this game for a few years now and I am NOT getting bored of it. It suffers a bit in the technical department (some bugs, glitches and unfinished content) but makes it up fivefold with it's other features: -If you like Dragon Age: Origins' party gameplay, you get a very similar experience here. -You get a ton of races, classes, prestige classes, skills and spells here. You can make any combination you can imagine almost. Dwarf Battlemage Necromancer? Possible. -The first expansion, Mask of the Betrayer, takes you into epic levels, with a really deep and dark storyline and characters. -The second expansion, Storm of Zehir, goes the opposite way. It allows you to make your own characters and full party, focusing on exploration in a jungle, as well as letting you be a merchant, with your own base of operations that you upgrade. -You get a powerful toolset. It might be complex but allows for great customization to make your own adventures and campaigns. -You can play online. Even though they pulled the plug officially, online functionality has been restored with Skywing's Client Extension. And online here, doesn't mean deathmatches or grinding with a friend. You can play on custom roleplaying servers that have their own rules, settings and quests, totally different from another. Neverwinter Nights 2 is not perfect but it's a great game with a huge replayability.

Original stories in the campaigns, many hours of play, choices that matter, runs beautifully on any modern pc or notebook, not any game-breaking bugs, multiplayer, mod support, memorable companions, what else to ask for in this genre of gaming 10 years ago? Stands pretty well even today.

This game simply does not function. The UI frequently breaks down and becomes unresponsive. The companion AI is atrociously designed. The game needlessly features three separate control modes and all of them possess the same dodgy imprecise movement and obtuse camera. The game lacks basic user options that might have done something to make the camera and controls somewhat workable. Bugs and glitches abound. The combat is pathetically simple. 90% of this game's challenge is in fussing with the obtuse camera, babysitting your obstinate and suicidal companions, and reloading or restarting when glitches occur or parts of the UI stop responding. The only good thing I can say about NWN2 is that the companions were somewhat entertaining. Sad, the NPCs deserve better than this inexcusable broken mess of a product. BUYER BEWARE!! You Are Purchasing A Broken Product
