Which should I buy, Guild Wars plus all expansions or NWN 2 Gold? I'm interested in both but ill only have time for one. And if I end up getting NWN2 should I play through NWN 1 first or does the story not carry over to NWN2?Adam-117
I have NWN2 and its graghic engine is badddd, hard on computers and laggy, game is boring for me.
Guild wars was alot more fun! plkayed it for a long time!!
But i wouldnt get either, save your money for a better game
I don't know about NWN 2, but I do know GW is a fun game. I put about 600 hours in before i got bored by it.
Guild Wars was awesome, but the community seems rather dead now.
NWN2 was...a good RPG, and the expansion pack was fantastic. The game engine is a bit clunky, but the same is true for just about every other good RPG ever, so it's not that much of a problem.
well, almost all favor to GW? I however think it depends on what you like to do now --
if you want to have online multiplayer fun, of course GW;
but if you want single-player solid CRPG experience, then it's NWN2+MotB.
if somehow you decide to go NWN2, no, you don't need to play the first NWN, they are quite different games and no connection story-wise.
I would get nwn2 gold (original + expansion pack). Main reasoning: new mods will still be coming out years down the road, giving the "100s of hours" of gameplay guild wars has. Meanwhile, guild wars 2 is set to come out this year supposedly, and at the least it'll come out early 2009.RT_Jackson
There is no release date set, unless you have some solid source to back up your statement. And definately go with Guild Wars.
well it depends upon your choice i would say. if personally prefer nwn2 + expansion much more over guild wars, because i like solid sp rpgs more than online hack n slash.
also, the recent patches improve performance by quite a bit for nwn 2 and i was easily able to max all settings using 1 8800GT
You type "/age". Only took me around 5000 hours to know how to check that.....same here probably...but how do you check how many minutes you've played total?

Just a quick note, NWN2 is getting another expansion later this year (if release date of Q4 is to be believed). I am sure they will release another "combo pack" too, so it might be worth it to buy GW's first, then NWN2 + 2 expansions after that.

NWN2 is a pretty decent game, not quite as good as I expected but was fun. I haven't played MOTB, but word is it's a better campaign, and from what I have read the new expansion will be very good.
Oh, and like everyone has already said, Guild Wars is a fantastic game. I haven't played in years though so I have no idea what it's like now...but I am guessing it's still pretty populated.
