Can a neverwinter nights player fill me in the neverwinter nights games?

Ok i am a siner and never played neverwinter nights... not even the first, iv seen that the camera is kinda.... free, overhead, id prefer to be either like an action rpg or the camera set on the top like diablo fallout 2 or sacred or aracnum or planescape torment... i think you get the point...

1 can i creat my own character? how deep the character creation is

2 what happens when i get a level how deep the skil upgrade is? or it's automatic?

3 is there a worldmap or you follow a linear path? can i explore the map in wide and kill enemies to get xp as long as i want?

4 are there diffirent ways to do things or diffirent dialogues that will result diffirent outocmes and story changes?

5 do the character feel something for each other like kotor or mass effect, or its dungeon siege style?

6 do the series got good or great stories?

7 are there hundrends of armors and weapons? like mmos?

8 difficulty? too high too easy?

9 sidequests? many? or few?

10 how many towns each game has? few or plenty of them?

And how much time did you spend in one playtrough?

1 can i creat my own character? how deep the character creation is

NWN 1 & 2: Arguably the deepest character creation system ever.

2 what happens when i get a level how deep the skil upgrade is? or it's automatic?

NWN 1 & 2: You can add skill points to your skills every lvl up. Every 4th level you can choose which attribute to raise. You can also choose feats but when you do so depends on your cIass. CIasses like Sorcerors and Bards also choose which spells they can use at lvl up.

3 is there a worldmap or you follow a linear path? can i explore the map in wide and kill enemies to get xp as long as i want?

NWN 1 & 2: Some parts are linear and some parts are non-linear, but you don't go running around killing things for the sake of getting XP. That's an MMO. You gain experience mostly through quests, and most quests just happen to have things to kill.

4 are there diffirent ways to do things or diffirent dialogues that will result diffirent outocmes and story changes?

NWN 1: Yeah but the story is not very engaging.

NWN 2: Yes and and the different choices are more significant than in NWN 1.

5 do the character feel something for each other like kotor or mass effect, or its dungeon siege ****

NWN 1: You don't even have a party, only a single mercenary. There are some sides quests for each mercenary and they reveal more and more about themselves as the story goes on, but it isn't very fulfilling.

NWN 2: Party dynamics are closer to Baldur's Gate II.

6 do the series got good or great stories?

NWN 1: Not especially. Community Modules do however.

NWN 2: Yes but not really until you get Mask of the Betrayer.

7 are there hundrends of armors and weapons? like mmos?

I don't play MMOs.

8 difficulty? too high too easy?

NWN 1 & 2: Combat has an uneasy learning curve, and so does the character creation... assuming you have never played a D&D game. Some cIass are easier to play than others. You can create eccentric characters that overall are difficult to play.

9 sidequests? many? or few?

NWN 1 & 2: Plenty.

10 how many towns each game has? few or plenty of them?

Pointless question. Quality > Quantity.

And how much time did you spend in one playtrough?

I don't know. In both games I probably created at least 50 characters before I finished the game with one of them, and have several hunderd hours playing time total.

You're no sinner dude. There's no such law out there that every gamer should play every games . Don't live in fear or inferiority complex. Chill out :)

You've got the all answers already. Just few more things to add from my side.

2. There is one button 'Auto' which you can use while leveling up. It automatically adds points to specific skills, feats which depends on the package you choose while creating a new character. Manual option is best in my opinionto customize your character as you want.

3. you can stay at your current place as long as you want. no specific time-limit to finish your given task. Kill as many as monster you want before you move along.

4. NwN has no different endings AFAIR. But you'll be given multiple action/dialog options. Depending upon your choice your character's nature can change. No effect on game endings.

7. weapons are really plenty.

9. I felt too many side quests. Didn't finish all. If you love FPS or fast paced game, then too many side quests will make you bore, may be. :)

NwN is one of the legendary RPG whicha must-play for all RPG lovers. It's a almost true representation of DnD 3.5 rules.

I found NWN just before I discovered MMOs, and I'll never forget it. It was the story lines! Not all of them, but some of them . . . when they were good, they were REALLY moving.

It was the first time I realized a PC game could move me emotionally. Also, great graphics and gameplay . . . I can only speak about the original one, though.

thats why am a sinner... as for being bored... i play far cry 2:).. but again i love fps i dislike the free camera rpgs... in any case this game got one bad point.. no worldmap..

Particular level map can be shown on-screen using TAB button IIRC.

Pressing M will bring you Map dialog-box. You can see both level map and world map. There is toggle button to toggle the mapmode. I played Nwn long times ago and can't remember exactly, check it out yourself. :D

I enjoye dboth Neverwinter Nights and Neverwinter Nights 2. I havnt beat NWN2 yet, but i did beat part1 and i spent ALOT of time on it.

I say get them both!
