Nightfall and now, Neverwinter Nights 2

Nightfall came and I got myself a Collector's Edition. It came with goodies inside and I am fine with it. The art book is nice but Factions' one was nicer. However, the making of Nightfall DVD was excellent. I hope someday in the future I get to work in an environment such as the Arenanet office. Anyway, Nightfall itself is very atmospheric. It oozes the mystical Arabian enchantment. I like how the game developers manage to portray Elona. The storyline however is quite longwinded. I am not sure if its me for not getting into character or something along those lines but I think the quests are too numerous. And there are things that you must do in order for the storyline to progress. Although thats normal, its not fun when it borders on grinding. However, on a general scale, Nightfall is an awesome game. The inclusion of heroes gives us more options for playing alone (which is ironically enough, going against the MM in the MMORPG). The bad side of this is that there are even fewer people who wants to play with another human being.

So Nightfall is great and all but I am waiting for the grand-daddy of all RPGs: Neverwinter Nights 2! Woot! I was supposed to get my hands on it yesterday but because of work and family dinner I didn't have the time to actually get it. Although I asked a guild mate of mine to get it but when he reached the shop, it was closed (15 minutes early!). Oh the mockery of it all. Hopefully I will get it by today. Simply because I need something to play in offline mode since tmnet started screwing up again. But whats new right? To quote my Singaporean friend who came up to KL and tried our broadband "Now I know what kind of hell do you guys have to live with."Is he being overly dramatic? I think he hit the nail on the head with that comment.
