What the heck...NWN demo -- 300+mb for this!?

[jlee]

It was quick/fast/...only leveled up twice, then the demo ended. For an 800mb+ install, I expected more..ah well.

Is the full game worth buying?

NWN = suck

PreLevel 1 = easy
Level 1 = Long till you figure it out
Level 2 = Exceeding Long
Level 3 = Insanely Short
Level 4 = Even More Insanely Short

The game is fun for a while till you tire of all the leveling and repetitiveness. If you like this short of game, try a MUD or play EverQuest.
However, I must warn you from personal experience that MUDs are definitely video game crack. EverQuest is no exception as it's just a graphical MUD.

Lol.. I dont know many people these days that would play Muds..

I personally think the game is great. I'd recommend buying it.

Oh yeah, and to elaborate on the repetitiveness. Once you figure out the optimum way to play each character, you will play them virtually that way for the rest of the game. Even w/ the higher levels, your character will just gain more of the same abilities which just gets tiresome.

Ya - I played them like 5 years ago - but the main principals are the same. Although you can do much more w/ a MUD b/c everything is text. Like a big choose your own adventure game. Played it for a total of 1.5 years. Played for a year on and off in HS - then during a quarter - I documented how to get everything in that particular MUD - and once I was sufficiently satisfied that I had beaten the game in my mind - I was able to quit.

Actually speaking of gaining different abilities as you progress the game, Fallout 2 wasn't bad. Although it too became tiresome after a while b/c if you want to gain all these cool items in that game, you would have to steal them for NPCs. So you would just keep saving/loading to make sure you stole everything and that they didn't detect it. I wish games like that made it more difficult to save.
