NWN - Is single-player worth it?

happyclappy · Post by **happyclappy** » Mon May 27, 2002 10:01 am

Sorry, but this is a very newbie question:-

I am looking forward to NWN being released but am unsure whether I should get it or not. More than likely, I will be buying it (if I do decide to buy it) for the single player aspects, rather than multiplayer - tho no doubt I will look into multiplayer.

With this in mind, is it worth buying NWN - is it really more for multiplayer with just a slight nod to single player or is the game worth buying for the sole adventurer?

Obviously with the game not being out yet then it might be difficult to get a definitive answer to this, but any help from those in the know would be welcome

I don't think this question can be answerd ... yet.
I've been told it will be about 60 hours long.

We'll just have to wait and see.

i a mbuying the game mostly for the single player and with the toolset comming out there sould be plenty of mods to use

i will try the multi player but will not use it much

I've been told it will be about 60 hours long

i read that on the NWN site but it does not say if that is the average playtime or just the needed quests for the game

I'll be buying it just for the sake of it being a DnD roleplaying game, anything is better than playing counterstrike for the 99999999999th time or trying to prevent BG2 from crashing AGAIN.

Ok, now this is my sort of question!

Of course it's worth buying! The single player game lasts for around 60-80 hours, will take your characters to around 16th, 17th or 18th level (this has been checked!

) and the storyline is from the great minds of Bioware. It really can't fail, do you know the storyline for it? It couldn't be any better!

*Nippy imagines playing through as a Paladin, then Monk, then Fighter, then Cleric, then Rogue, then Mage, then Sorcerer, then Bard, then Druid, then Barbarian, then Rogue*

Mental overload! Oh my God!

LOL

I didn't have any doubts either about its worth, and to consider that IWD was about 50 hours pure gameplay. 60-80 hours on SP for a generally multiplayer game are more than enough, and a solid game to buy. This is going to be a long summer
