Is anyone going to start up their own guild or just going to join other ones. There could be a gamebanshee guild I suppose. Anyone seen any other guilds floating anywhere?

I have saw some, but I don't get the reason behind them. :confused:


Is it for groups of the same kind? (Paladins in one group, Mages in another)


Or is it for a group of 6?


Or is it for the group you plan on adverturing with?


I'm lost in this guild thing.... :confused:

I suppose the whole point really is to adventure with a group of people who like the same class of characters or roleplay the same way. Some people actually go really far and build codes of chivalry etc. I've even seen an assassins guild that actually assassinate characters in games!

I can see joining a group who RP the same way, but I really don't want to be adventuring with 6 Paladins all at the same time. :D or any 6 of the same kind.

See this is the thing. You can join a guild that has the purpose of fighting evil or good. You can join a guild that prefers to keep balance etc. The whole point is that sometimes it is more fun/easier/better to travel in a group.

@Nippy: Will you be joining a guild full of Paladins or a guild based on alignment(Good,Evil)?


I can see joining one from the stand point of alignment.

@ Weasel

I'm a Paladin but I'll join one on alignment. Maybe the guilds already present will start Neverwinter guilds. What alignment type will you join?

@Nippy


I perfer a Paladin as well, so I guess it would be a good alignment.

What race of Paladin are you going to start as? You can be a dwarven/elven etc Paladin. It's gonna be good!

Most likely the same old human race. ;) Boring I know;D

I agree I can't wait till it's released. I'm going to keep track of my adventure with the groups I go with and post it in a story form.


Bad thing I read it was being delayed till March of 2002. :(

I honestly can't understand sites putting up release dates. Bioware haven't even put one up yet so people are just speculating. However even if it was that long a wait (which I hope it isn't) I would still buy it. Do you think it's going to get a good reception, after all the coverage has not been brilliant.

I agree :) on both points..speculating and no matter how long it takes.


I believe when the time gets near release the coverage will improve.Right now everyone is IMHO rehashing what little news they have and a little is better than none. :)

Absolutely! :)

We seem to have a two man discussion going on here! Are you going to create any areas? Drakron said he was going to make Waterdeep, what a task!

LOL :) I most likely will try my hand at building some area's. Drakron knows at lot more than I do about D&D, so my area's will be a lot smaller.

Size doesn't really matter (you know what I mean :D :D :p ) as long as the areas look good and have good combat scenarios and apply to the quest.

True and there will be a lot of people building them, some good some really bad.

How are you going to choose which ones to do? I imagine some sites will do a rating system or if your in a guild they'll decide or something.

I believe anyone can make one, the thing will be getting someone to host it I believe.

I have to agree to that. Do you do any PnP stuff? Maybe that will help in the construction of it.

I have some books I downloaded off the internet. Most of the stuff in the game will be prepackage I believe.
