I'm having a lot of fun with the NWN expansion packs at the moment ,my Cleric is kick ass! :)

it only takes about 'an hour' to do the Xana Endings :p

since you now know how to navigate the Necropolis ....

i guess *most gamers* don't actually *finish* their game
:Q

but in the case of BOTH G3 and DM ... they make no sense whatsoever
:confused:

and *CORRECTION*

Gothic 3 does NOT use the same engine as Oblivion ....

it uses the 'custom' Genome engine
:p

Gothic 3 is powered by a custom engine called the Genome engine; it supports Pixel Shader 3.0, has a multithreaded design and includes dynamic lighting (including self-shadowing). Physics simulation is provided by Ageia's PhysX physics engine. It also uses Bink Video Technology from RAD Game Tools for the cutscenes, as well as the FMOD Sound System from Firelight Technologies for sound playback.[1

PS: i am having a LOT of fun with *patched* NWN2 ... runs flawlessly [all night]
:thumbsup:

Yep apoppin it is a great game like I have stated many times ;), with the 1.03 patch no reason why you won't get a very stable/good game.

i guess *most gamers* don't actually *finish* their game

Depends on the game,if it is a game I really like I tend to play all possible endings,however sometimes like at the moment I have too many games to play,just received my beta vanguard key today so I'm downloading that at moment and I have yet to install 9Dragons as well,and as you know finish off NWN expansion packs too.

Sometimes I wish we had 1000 hours in a day :D .

Vanguard is in Beta?
:Q

please give your impressions

as to NWN2 ... 1.03.840 is just what the doctor ordered ... NWN2 is out of Beta!
[--except for the "turn based'" fighting, i like it ... ]

Xana >>>>> Sword of the Dragonclaw

I don't know if you have noticed but if you charge your attack up completely and hit with the tail it 1sk enemies. On top of this it also replenishes your life for every kill you get. The reason you think the sword is better is because after you get the sword you get to face a lot of undead right away and the sword does extra damage against undead.

oh, i *noticed* allright. :p

she is not as good as the Weapons you get for flushing Her - and that is Still my opinion -- but as i stated previously, she is Awesome against UNarmoured Foes ;)

Try Her against a Mob of Armoured Foes ... She Lacks Big Time and you are forced to fall back on your own Skills.

And i didn't use the Sword ... i was a Mage [and a Thief] ... Staff [and Daggers] ... all the way ... although the Shield of Lightening Reflected the Undead CowPie's attack back at it for an EASY kill.

cow pie?
:Q

my bad :eek:

Pie cow

:D

and DM M&M should not really be compared to Gothic3 ... i'd say "Fable: Lost Chapters" is closer
[so far]

I only did the evil endings. And I didn't go back and do the good endings because I liked the choices I made.

You can either put the item back away and become a god in your own right. Or summon your father and lead by his side. Those are the evil choices. They are weird though because of what Xana says when you grab the object. She literally confused the hell out of me when I picked it up and was trying to figure out what she wanted me to do with it, but it turns out she just wants you to put it back on the pedestal. Yea, weird.

ALL you have to do to be *good* ... no matter how "evil" you are ... to get the Good Ending ... simply REplace the Skull on the Pedestal . ... HOWEVER, if you want "Ms Goodie Two Shoes" you have to go back about an hour --to the cathedral; and purge Xana ...

i'd recommend it ... you get some GREAT weapons to replace Xana ... and THOSE two endings make SOME sense ;)

i am glad SOMEONE agrees -- thanks, skace :) -- that the Endings with Xana make NO sense ... whatsoever ...

... at least till the xpack :Q
{i'd buy it}
:thumbsup:

and i am FINISHING nwn2 ... AFTER 40 hours [or so] it finally gets "interesting"
:roll:

:Q

i thought she was *fused* to your DM? :p
[i wanted to leave "MS Goody TwoShoes" in the web]

[i was SO glad to get rid of Xana ... she is a nag, anyway]
:roll:

i'd pick the *5th choice* and send her to Live with Dad. :D

No, I left goody 2 shoes there. Without her I couldn't get into the monastery to be purified. Meaning if I wanted the good endings, I'd have to go aaaaaaaalll the way back and save her from the spiders and redo all that stuff between.

I liked Xana. :)

:Q
