    This isn't bad at all, but it needs a Triple A remake. Something on par with BG3.

    Not a bad game at all, but definetely not for everyone.
    Neverwinter Nights is famous and widely regarded an almost classic. The gameplay, story, dice rolls, stats, classes, etc. are direct game interpretations of the D&D board games, problem is they left you to be the Dungeon Master, almost that is. What I mean is the story is predetermined and has a path that cannot be changed, but a lot    Not a bad game at all, but definetely not for everyone.
    Neverwinter Nights is famous and widely regarded an almost classic. The gameplay, story, dice rolls, stats, classes, etc. are direct game interpretations of the D&D board games, problem is they left you to be the Dungeon Master, almost that is. What I mean is the story is predetermined and has a path that cannot be changed, but a lot of your experience inside the quests will need your imagination to truly be appreciated. It is a simple main story, I remember the beginning much more than the ending, which normally it's not a good sign, I got invested in the beginning, the game pulled me in, but the more answers I got the less interested I was, it wasn't a bad experience, but can't say I was overjoyed at the end.
    Most quest are simple quests, inside a non linear wide location with linear maps.
    The biggest problem is the amount of traps and locked chests and doors, if you don't like a rogue class you will need the only rogue companion in the game and you can only choose one, this makes the others non viable which in turn makes the replayability almost non existent, with the exception of going through everything again but with a different class.
    The DLCs expand a lot in enjoyment and story wise, and adds new classes, the graphics are better, the ingame cutscenes too, it's like the devs had finally figured out the engine and could flex a little bit.
    If you are a fan of RPG, you'll like this.    … Expand

    Gameplay is very troublesome and the newly updated version has optimization issues. Game stutters all the time for no reason. It's not a game that everyone can go to the end of the game and endure. Story is interesting but you have to work very hard to see it. But when the gameplay is this difficult, you're not sure if it's worth the effort.

    Neverwinter is still a solid game (especially the Hordes of the Underdark expansion is worth the time) but it was remastered so slightly that the originally hideous game became merely ugly. [06/2018, p.50]

    The legendary role-playing game comes back to life with very few improvements but with the hope that the updates will do even better. We expected more from Beamdog.
