Now depending on where you allocate stats, abilities, yada yada yada…will dictate how combat, dialogue checks, and intelligence levels perform stacked to a dice roll. I’m almost positive anyone will be able to find their niche and I wish more games nowadays had this depth.
For example, you could be a half-elf, half-human who specializes in dual-wielding with the practices of a monk. There are of course classes like a magical, arrow slinging elf or a human warrior, but there are levels to each class. The number of playstyles is also impressively varied. It got to the point where I was overwhelmed and just randomized my appearance until I found one. There are loads of possibilities on how you can create your person and what path to send them on.
Which makes a lot of current character creators seem incompetent mind you. Neverwinter Nights Enhanced Edition is still a third-person RPG though where stats affect chance rolls and all of this starts with the character creation. World and gameplay mechanics are still built around an MMORPG-like structure with Dungeons and Dragons combat ascetics. This wouldn’t be an “Enhanced Edition” remaster without those I feel like after all. Those were called premium modules believe. That also doesn’t include the small additions and fixes from devs and fans alike. So, your fifty-ish hour adventure is greatly extended. The two expansions released after Neverwinter Nights Enhanced Edition’s original release appear as well. After doing so you discover there’s traitors, conspiracies, and even primordial entities all with a role to play in this expansive adventure. It has ravished Neverwinter and brought the land to its knees. The story remains unchanged as you’ll still be a user-generated character who must aid the nobles and find the cure for a plague. Just pay no mind to the tops of maps being nonexistent. This title holds up exceptionally well in almost all areas. Oh, Bioware what happened to you! Regardless, after almost twenty years I get to play Neverwinter Nights Enhanced Edition albeit with outdated mechanics and old engines. Believe me, I feel dirty saying that being one of Bioware’s earlier titles before this modern chicanery. Ergo I did not play Neverwinter Nights back in the day. I missed out on a lot of the seminal ones from the ’90s and early 2000s. RPGs are one of my favorite video game genres.
