This is a good game with an interesting, classic story and good gameplay. The character customization options allow for a wide variety of gameplay options.
Only gripe is that the game has some frame-rate issues. …More182 of 275 people found this useful

Neverwinter Nights 2
Amazing Game.
Written by PS from Windsor
Apr 27, 2008
I've been a gamer for as long as I can remember. This game is now at the top of the pile of my favourites. The only problem that I've had with the game had nothing to do with the game itself, but with my laptop. The graphics card in my MacBook can't handle this game and the chip isn't upgradable. I've been playing it on my home machine and have been loving it!!!
Word to the wise, be sure to look at the specs of the game and compare to your Mac to see if it will work. This game is amazing if your machine can run it... …More143 of 202 people found this useful

Needs the update that isn't coming
Written by KB from Minneapolis
Nov 2, 2009
This game was probably awesome on a PC when it was released but is basically unusable on a newer Mac with Snow Leopard. That they are charging $50 for a game that crashes nearly every time a character attempts to transition to a new area is irresponsible. That I spent money to buy this game was just stupid on my part. You would be better off using an old PC or using bootcamp and running the PC version than attempting to play this on OS X, which in truth, is too bad. …More

Neverwinter Nights 2
Will not work
Written by TR from Santa Cruz
Oct 24, 2009
This game simply will not function with Snow Leopard. This was the first thing I bought after having bought a brand new Imac with Snow leopard preloaded and it consistently crashes. I stopped playing after getting to an inn and being unable to leave the main room without a crash. A patch was rumored to be in the works but there has been no further web comment to my knowledge since early Sept '09. Avoid buying until you hear of a specific Snow Leopard patch from Aspyr. Less than useless as currently sold. …More

Neverwinter Nights 2
Totally Linear, Utter disappointment.
Written by GP from bristol
Oct 12, 2009
Imagine playing a game using a walk-through word for word..? Got this game hoping that with all the good reviews and press it got it may be something like Baldurs gate / Fallout, which i have replayed for years and a huge fan. NWN2 was an utter disappointment. There is NO choice in any actions you do, but even if you try really hard to effect the outcome in the opposite direction they just happen anyway?!
Im really not sure why people keep saying there is this huge difference that your actions make, there is none at all?! The story line is slightly split (some good quests, some evil ones), so you might be able to play this game TWICE before its like reading a not so interesting book repeatedly. There is only 1 way to walk through a map section, through a path about 2ft wide, only 1 choice in map section to go to unless you want to stroll though the empty valley you just left behind, no jumping ahead or to the side of the fixed main quest.
Without trying to compare this to high budget games, the developers could have also hired some real voice actors as they are some what tragic.
Possibly the 'greatness' of this game is hidden away in the expansions which are yet to come out on the mac, until that id strongly recommend fishing out your old Baldurs I/II gate or Fallout I/II CD's (or buying new ones) and replaying them.
In defense it does have some nice ability/character selection process which would have been nice to explore if they hadn't been the sole reason for playing the game. …More2 of 7 people found this useful
