One of the most overrated games ever.
Basically if your the sort of person who is patient & forgiving with the worst camera in computer game history then you will probably find lots to enjoy. But, if your like me & have zero tolerance to bad camera's then avoid like Posh & Becks. I had read in reviews that the camera was iffy but i was simply not prepared for how bad it actually was. Why oh why oh why would you put something like this in to scupper your game.
It's a shame because NW2 seems to have lots of things going for it. Decent voice acting & sound effects, it's huge & has a very deep system that takes a while to master. However i found the story to be hopeless. This had been the only reason i'd played for 10 hours or so just to see if the story panned out into anything interesting. The game just feels so generic & geeky with little imagination on show. To be honest i think i liked this less than the very dull original game. I guess i should have known better, but i was still expecting a lot better game than this. This must be for hardcore d&d geeks out there who also like masochistic control schemes because i simply can't see what all the fuss is about & i think 10 hours or so was enough to give a fair review.
