BG(1/2) and IWD(1/2) use 2.0 rules.

PoR and NWN(and exps) use 3.0 rules.

If anything you should just try one more time to load the game instead of giving up after it freezing once. It did this to me a few times and it still works..just the game is buggy in some areas (such as the saving/loading screens).

It IS a good gam,e you shouldn't give up on it. You miss so much. Check out your graphic settings instead! Are you sure your graphic card is set up properly? Maybe it has something to do with that (at least it was the problem in my case).
Up the IRONS!

Most of the rest of the 3E games in the market have either mixed reviews or horrible reviews. Ruins of Myth Drannor comes to mind. Many like the combat system of ToEE, but I found the lack of a proper storyline boring; furthermore some equipment and joinable NPCs disrupted the flow and balance of the game.

Well, KOTOR is somewhat 3E, and I think uses an official Star Wars setting (correct me if I'm wrong). I enjoyed it, because gameplay was great and it had a somewhat decent plot. However it was a little too short (I finished in 36 hours).

One thing that you really miss out on are the community modules created for NWN. Some modules are without doubt world-class, up there with the likes of BG2 and PS:T... of course, the length and effort put into BG2 and PS:T are far more than the modules; the modules are free in the first place.
