Neverwinter Nights 2

Game Description and Comments

Neverwinter Nights 2 is a retail RPG that can played both offline and online. Like the original, NWN 2 offers nearly infinite replay value due to player-created modules. New things to look for in the sequel include new races, new prestige classes, and bigger groups. Many of the new races such the drow, duergar, and svirfneblin should be familiar to readers of the Forgotten Realm novels, especially those with the popular drow elf known as Drizzt Do-Urden. Prestige classes that were first introduced in the Shadows of Undrentide expansion for NWN 1 are back with several additions to help players fully customize their characters. The additional races and classes are nice, but the biggest fundamental change in the game has to be the ability to have a four member party instead of just one companion. This allows the game to feel more like its pen and paper roots where a small group of friends would tackle a module together.   

Key Features

  • Advanced tools for making modules.
  • Modules bolster replay value considerably.
  • Groups can now consist of four members.
  • Uses Dungeons & Dragons 3.5 edition rules.
  • New races that include drow (aka dark elf), duergar (aka dark dwarf), svirfneblin (aka deep gnome, sun elf, wood elf, and gold dwarf. 
  • New prestige classes added such as the duelists, trickster, war priest, and frenzied berzerker. 
  • New base class with the Warlock.
  • Each character can now have up to four classes.
