Neverwinter Nights 2
Good game, awful performance
Written by JP from Mountain View

This game is entertaining, and the epic storyline and good side quests and mini-games really satisfied me, but the performance of the whole thing is so abysmal that it almost ruins the whole game. My computer meets the "recommended" specs (well above the "minimum" specs) but even with all of the high quality graphics turned down or off entirely, I still get an awful 6-10 frames per second.
Performance matters in games! My experience here was ruined! Unless you have a 8-core machine with the top of the line video card, I'd stay away from this one. Not worth the price for the frustration you get.
(Yes, I'm using the latest available patch from Aspyr here.)20 of 29 people found this useful

Neverwinter Nights 2
Good, But Description Is Misleading
Written by GG from Cleveland

Neverwinter Nights 2 is a solid, fun western RPG if there ever was one. Based off of D&D, it portrays the feel and rules of the traditional game to every detailed line. However, Apple store's description is misleading. It claims that the game has a toolset for making your own maps and modules, though the program to do so was never coded for mac. Still, a great game.

Neverwinter Nights 2
Amazing Game.

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...147 of 206 people found this useful

Outstanding Game

Excellent all around--interesting and in-depth story line, with dynamic characters and interaction. I especially like the voice actors and the characters you can add to your party. If there is a weakness, it would be that the story ends more or less the same way. Still, if all roads lead to the same place, there are many different ways to get there, and it definitely matters what kind of character you play and how you play it. I look forward to the expansion and a sequel!

Solid game

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.188 of 281 people found this useful
