Neverwinter Nights 2: Mask of the Betrayer

[Guardian]

Konačno, najavljen je prvi expansion za NWN2, Mask of the Betrayer.
Najavili su nove klase, rase, iteme, Epick levele.
Priča treba da se nastavi tamo gde je original završen. Tebalo bi da se pojavi na jesen 2007. Can´t wait

E igrica je stvarno extra usla mi u top 5 jedva cekam expanziju,ali kako je pocelo kad izadje bicu (BTW 13 mi je )

[Marti Misterija]

Meni je samo pitanje koliko cu modula da odigram dok se ne pojavi NWN2: MotB - cisto da ne ispadnem iz forme, a on kad bude dosao dobro dosao.

[Ekiman]

kakvi moduli oficijalni ili...

[Marti Misterija]

Ma ne, oficijalni jos nisu izasli (bar ne da ja znam za njih), ali moze se naci i dobrih modula koji su izradjeni od strane ljubitelja same igre (podpadaju pod ono "ili").
Cini mi se da ima pojedinaca koji su se dobro izucili izradjujuci module za prvi NWN, a i koliko sam uspeo da vidim ovaj toolset pruza stvarno dobre mogucnosti za izradu kvalitetnih neoficijalnih modula.
Sve u svemu lep nacin da se spoji lepo sa korisnim, tj. da se ubije vreme u iscekivanju MotB.

Jedna odlicna kritika od strane jednog tipa iz Q&A odeljenja Obsidiana:

I’ve been trying to think of a way to describe Mask of the Betrayer that’s useful to you guys but doesn’t give away any information that Obsidz and Atari don’t want you to have. At this point, I think most of you, who have been following the game, know quite a bit about the story, the characters, and the setting. That works in my favor, since it frees me to step back and assess the game from a distance. For example, I don’t need to focus on Rashemen. You guys know that the story is set in Rashemen, at least in part, and most of you can make your own judgment about the setting.

For my part, setting isn’t really important. I prefer some settings to others, but a good story will shine in virtually any setting. Since I’ve already mentioned Rashemen, however, I will point out that I’m not a fan of the region, which only serves to highlight the fact that I’m not a Forgotten Realms fan in the first place. How many times has Thay invaded Rashemen? How many times has Rashemen killed the invaders or driven them back to Thay? If Rashemen has had the strength to overcome so many invasions, it surely has the power to go into Thay and take care of the problem altogether, right? …But nooo, they don’t. Believe me, I don’t praise MotB for the Forgotten Realms setting and I certainly don’t praise it for the particular area of the Forgotten Realms in which the story takes place.

Nije da te palim, ali nece izaci pre oktobra... I to verovatno krajem pomenutog meseca...

[player1]

Nikad nije receno da ce biti za jul...

@Sarmatian: bas je nabio poredjenje kad je spomenuo PS:T. Bas me zanima da vidim sta ce biti sa ovim, jer ako hoce da popravi NWN2 onda ima puno posla.

[player1]

Inace, zvanicni datum izlaska je 9. oktobar za americno trziste i "kraj septembra" za evropsko.

Nema tu sta da se popravlja, posto je sve novo. Rashemen kao osvezenje (jupiii), novi kompanjoni koji izgledaju kudikamo interesantniji nego stari. Red Wizard of Thay, undead cleric, neki polubestijalni druid i rana na grudima koja te primorava da jedes duse ili da umres (brrrr). Kazu da svaki od kompanjona ima duplo vise teksta od svakog iz originala... No videcemo za nekoliko dana, da ne prejudiciram... I originalna kampanja nwn2 je obecavala na papiru pa je ispalo... drugacije.

Kada vidim sve ove nove klase prosto se odusevim. Sve mi nesto toplo oko srca, majke mi. Jedva cekam da je nabavim. I tek sad primetih da sam sa Novi clan presao na Clan, tako da momci i devojke(ako ima koja) popijte koje/u u moje ime... Ja castim

Eh... sreca tvoja. Ja te klase znam ovako napamet iz knjiga (FR Campaign setting uglavnom, i pomalo Complete Warrior/Mage itd..). Necu da te razocaravam... Prestiz klase u DnDu su mahom vise smek. Jer prakticki uvek oslabe lika vise nego sto ga cine jacim.

Spellsword je extra prestiz klasa doduse (smanjuje arcane spell penalty sa teskih oklopa tako da mage moze na kraju da nosi - full plate - bez penaltyja!), nju bi voleo da vidim u nekom od DnD RPGova.

[ThEmperoR]

MotB watch out, here I come. Ali dok je ja ne nabavim, ajde neka neko opise barem da li je dobra?

[Marti Misterija]

Evo sta kazu:
Following the climactic battle against the King of Shadows, you
awaken alone and stranded deep beneath the earth. A dark hunger
grows within you, threatening to devour your very soul. Will you
fight against the hunger within or will you embrace it, revelling
in your newfound power?
Set in harsh, spirit-rich Rashemen, near the powerful nation of
Thay, Neverwinter Nights 2: Mask of the Betrayer presents players
with an exciting new 20-30+ hour campaign filled with meaningful
choices, rich characters, and surprising outcomes. Continue the
adventure of your Neverwinter Nights 2 character or create a
completely new epic hero - no previous Neverwinter Nights
experience required. Hundreds of new gameplay options include epic
levels; feats, spells, races, and classes; powerful weapons,
armour, and crafting options; and hordes of diverse creatures.
* Major improvements to the Neverwinter Nights franchise: enhanced
graphics, including extensive use of specularity, environment
effects, and normal maps; improved performance; streamlined
party control; and an easier to use and more powerful toolset.
Experience Neverwinter Nights 2 at its best.
* Epic storyline provides the most riveting RPG experience since
Planescape: Torment, with the compelling characters and
plotlines for which Obsidian Entertainment is renowned. Play the
official campaign either alone or online with your friends.
* Stunning new environments include the Astral Plane, sunken
Imaskari ruins, a Thayan wizard academy, and the Shadow Plane.
Immerse yourself in the Forgotten Realms as you've never seen it
before.
* Explore an amazingly reactive world, where your decisions affect
those around you and the passage of time realistically impacts
gameplay.
* Switch seamlessly between exploration and tactical combat with
the immersive, over the shoulder view of Character Mode and the
top down perspective of Strategy Mode with its RTS-like
controls.
* Combat and negotiate with dozens of new creatures including many
D&D favourites such as blue dragons, treants, hags, solars, and
the two-headed fell troll.
* Choose from over 20 classic and exotic D&D races, including the
new genasi: planetouched humanoids hailing from the elemental
planes of air, earth, fire, or water.
* Customize your character with over 60 epic feats including the
monk's Blazing Aura, the rogue's Epic Precision, and the druid's
Dragon Shape.
* Master more than 50 new spells, including epic spells such as
mass fowl, damnation, and vampiric feast.
* Play new D&D classes such as the Red Wizard of Thay, spirit
shaman, and invisible blade.

Mislim da niko ovde u nasoj zemlji Srbiji jos uvek nije poceo da je igra posto se tek pojavila na zapadu tako da cemo malo da sacekamo dok neko ne bude poceo da am tera vodu na usta.

[Asmodeus]

Konacno sam zavrsio MotB.
Nisam imao poteskoca u fajtu. Previse lak uzevsi u obzir epic featove i spellove od 21lvl+. Epic vampiric feast, hellbal, i epic gate na 3 lika u grupi, i nema problema ni sa jednim protivnikom...
Enchant je mocan i previse dostupan, tj. mogu jedno 15 itema da enchantujem bez prevelikog istrazivana van main questa, dok sam nwn za jedan bolji enchant trazio sastojke pola igre.

Spoiler za spoiler:

Prica je dobra, mada mislim da je mogla biti jos dramaticnija tj. da se promeni kompletan poredak planes-a i zakoni bogova, tako sto bi glavni protagonista unistio wall of the faithless. A to se nije desilo zato sto je God of the dead zapretio da ce ga proterati iz njegovog domain-a "with a single thought". A nije ga proterao u startu kad je napao city of the dead. Prilicno naivno. Nisu se developeri usudili da menjaju nista drasticno, ostavili su za NWN3,4,5... BTW, odusevio me razgovor sa Myrkulom, very cool talking to a dead god

[Guardian]

Mislim da Obsidian nemože da uništi Wallof the Faithless, to je već maltene brand za D&D, a wizard of the coast ga ne bi dozvolili srušiti, pa ni u igri po D&D pravilima!

[Asmodeus]

U kom smislu je brand?
Ko odlucuje kakav ce storyline biti? Wizards of the Coast ili Obsidian?
