Tags: GOG; Neverwinter Nights 2; Neverwinter Nights 2: Mask of the Betrayer; Neverwinter Nights 2: Mysteries of Westgate; Neverwinter Nights 2: Storm of Zehir; Obsidian Entertainment

GOG.com just added Neverwinter Nights 2 to its catalogue, and it even includes all the three expansions: Mask of the Betrayer, Storm of Zehir and Mysteries of Westgate. The current, slightly discounted launch price is $14.99, valid until Thursday, January 31, at 10:59AM GMT; the game is going to cost $19.99 after the promo is over.

Welcome back to Neverwinter!

Bards sing tales of heroes in ages past, but they rarely mention those that are yet to become heroes. One such hero is a farmer in the small village of West Harbor. Raised by the elven ranger, Daeghun, as his own child, our hero will embark on a grandiose quest against the King of Shadows. Neverwinter Nights 2 is the tale of his deeds. His adventures continue in Neverwinter Nights 2: Mask of the Betrayer. Our protagonist discovers that an ominous spell has fallen on him. A curse of perpetual hunger--one which can only be quelled by consuming the souls of spirits. In order to remove the curse, he has to travel to the Shadow Realm, which harbors dark secrets and tormented souls.

Neverwinter Nights 2: Storm of Zehir gives as a breather from grand quests of destiny and epic ordeals. You simply assemble a group of four adventurers (either by carefully picking out each of their statistics and skills or by randomly re-rolling your characters until you find the ones that suit you) and go where the wind takes you. Just make sure to get a good look at the map as you will need it to explore the wide open region of Samarach and the Sword Coast. Then, yet another adventure: in an ancient and forgotten tomb you found an unusual mask. It made you quite powerful but changed your life into a living nightmare. Strange, terrifying visions torment your psyche. Every time you try to get rid of the accursed mask, it secretly makes its way back to you. There's just one solution: set sail for Westgate and discover the secret of the Night Masks in Neverwinter Nights 2: Mysteries of Westgate.

Neverwinter Nights 2: Complete is an epic RPG set in the fantasy world of the Forgotten Realms, one of the most popular campaign settings of Dungeons & Dragons. Use all the wicked spells, feats, and prestige classes from the D&D 3.5 rules. Create your characters any way you wish, choosing from a wide variety of races and subraces, such as Tiefling and Aasimar. As if the pre-made campaigns weren't enough, you can take the reins and use the powerful Obsidian Neverwinter NIghts 2 Toolset to make your own adventures and share them with friends!​

Good. Buy it guys, even only for MoTB. Neglected MoW is also worth it, great urban setting. Now, go, buy it, support the dex!

Not to mention Obsidian. If their deal is still valid after Atari's collapse, they might be getting royalties from this.

MotB is one of the finest RPGs ever made, mainly due to the excellent writing, and weird and wonderful setting - finally a modern D&D game that isn't on the Sword Coast. The spirit eater mechanic is a retard detector, stops you exploiting the game mechanics like resting, and gives actual gameplay consequences to acting like a monster (instead of just butthurt NPCs and ending slides).

I've only played MoW once but I remember enjoying it a lot, there were different routes through the game and different endings depending on your choices, IIRC.

NWN2 OC is not as bad as the Codex makes out, well worth a playthrough at least once - and be sure to import your character into MotB.

I refused to buy SoZ.

This game is not that old to end up on GoG.. runs fine on Win7 x64.
Strange, i remember buying it (full NWN+MoTB+SoZ pack) at Steam store for 1.5$ a year ago.. I admit, it was a region-locked version, but it was in English : x

I'd add that ambient music added an excellent atmosphere on top of that.. i even ripped Shadow Mulsantir mp3 from the game

GOG stopped being 'Good Old Games' a couple of years ago. They sell new games too.

NWN2 on Steam was never available to people in the UK, maybe Europe too. And from what I've heard, it is no longer available on Steam for the US either.

Seems the discount is until "Thursday, January 31, at 10:59AM GMT" according to the news post, so a week.

MotB and MoW shouldn't be missed. The OC and SoZ are fairly forgettable, though they have some good things here and there (like the trial in the OC and the last battle in SoZ).

I don't get the flack against SoZ. Gameplaywise it is vastly superior to both MotB and OC (MotB is coll too but when I think of pointless encounters and boring gameplay I lose all the Steam I'd need to replay it). Now the phenomenon of MoW is ssomething I don't understand. It was pretty boring, IMO (not to mention I ran across a gamebreaking bug).

I'm surprised that there wasn't more made of how NWN1+2 were specifically designed to run third party modules. There's far too many people who think that the official campaigns are all there is.
