I hate it, but this happens every time I fire up "Neverwinter Nights" (yes, the orginal). I get through character creation, I get through Chapter One (out of four) by saving the city of Neverwinter, and then *poof* I grow bored.

The game is just SO SLOW!

The **** thing is, I'm enjoying the game. I enjoy it every time I start.

I don't quite know what to do, but I'm hoping that a little break will do me some good.

On the off-moments, I've been playing Diablo II and Ninja Gaiden Black. Diablo II is good, but I have yet to get to the second land, which is where I left off before a trojan destroyed all of my data. Ninja Gaiden Black is fun as hell, but it's also damn difficult.

I feel like I have gotten myself into an uncomfortable gaming position; I'm replaying old games, I'm behind the points where I last left off, and I'm no longer having fun.

Easy fix, right? Just start a different game. Well, I (currently) hate having a ton of games installed on my computer, and I'm on the precipice of too many and just enough games installed.
