<a href="http://www.sorcerers.net/Main/Articles/nwn2_mow_interview.php">Sorcerer's Place</a> has a nice <a href="http://www.sorcerers.net/Main/Articles/nwn2_mow_interview.php">interview</a> with <a href="http://www.ossianstudios.com/">Ossian Studios</a> on their upcoming NWN 2 urban adventure pack, Mysteries of Westgate. It's supposed to be more difficult than MotB and offer about 15 hours of highly replayable RPG goodness.<blockquote>SP: You've mentioned that there are several endings in MoW - have you made sure that the adventure pack doesn't lead the player into one favoured course? Is there a feel of a "right" way and "wrong" way of completing it?
<br>
<br>
Luke Scull: There are no favoured courses, really. We put the same amount of effort and care into each path. There are no wrong and right ways to complete the game. The evil path is pretty evident but it makes sense and thus will tempt players to take it. This differs from evil paths in many other games, which frequently seem designed for “chaotic stupid” characters or outright psychopaths.</blockquote>

Does this mean there won't be a "right" path for my chaotic stupid psychopath ?

 

[TalesfromtheCrypt]

That module sounds very promising. It always bothered me that being "evil" in RPG means that you're killing people without reason, stealing old grandma's purse etc.

I always wanted to play that kind of evil character who pulls the strings in the background and takes advantage of every situation to get the maximum profit out of it in order to advance in the power structure, using (deadly) force if needed - also against innocents- but never for the pure "fun" of it.

I SRSLY want to play a cleric of Gargauth.

 

[Demnogonis Saastuttaja]

At least it'd be nice if you weren't considered evil in this game if you want to be paid for your hard work, or refuse to do people's annoying chores.

(Hi all, I noticed all the Oblivion hate here and I thought I'd fit just right in.)

You thought wrong. We had enough of your sort and it didn't turn out good for us. Get the fuck out of here. Now.

 

[Jasede]

Welcome to the Codex, Demnogonis!

 

[thesheeep]

Ahhh... the rituals for a beginner

 

[Demnogonis Saastuttaja]

Thank you for the warm welcome.

 

[OSK]

Thank you for the warm welcome.

Weak. That's the best you got?

If you think that's bad, maybe you should go join your kind at http://www.bethsoft.com/bgsforums/

 

[Demnogonis Saastuttaja]

You just don't appreciate solid craftsmanship.

 

[Transfiguring Roar]

Nice entrance, Demnogonis Saastuttaja.

This module/adventure pack is sounding more and more promising. Just wish they would hurry up and release it.

 

[Edward_R_Murrow]

Thread needs more seasoning.

There's a new interview at GameShark but the only new info is that the game is supposed to be released in January.
