NWN Gold Edition Announced

[Oct 09, 2003, 2:35 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

Atari Unveils the Neverwinter Nights Gold Edition is the press release announcing plans for a repackaged version of BioWare's D&D RPG, slated for release this November. The Gold Edition, obviously enough targeted on keeping the game on shelves for the lucrative holiday sales season, will include the original game, the Shadows of Undrentide expansion, the Aurora tool kit, as well as four modules. Here's a bit on the modules: "The Neverwinter Nights Gold Edition game will also give players a chance to experience some of the most popular and exciting modules created using the Neverwinter Nights Aurora Toolset. Modules are complete stand-alone adventures that allow players to take part in entirely new stories and adventures within their favorite Dungeons & Dragons worlds. Each of the four included modules has been created by the game’s original designers at BioWare."

Don't buy the gold edition, hunt around and buy the NWN Collector's Edition. You get a neat shirt, uber large cloth poster of Aribeth (whistle), an art of Neverwinter Nights book (lots of glossy high quality illustrations), the NWN soundtrack, a much better bound edition of the manual and a few other things I forget about. I really enjoyed NWN. It was the first D&D based game I've really enjoyed because it didn't require that I know anything about D&D for it to be fun While the first part of the original campaign moved a bit slowly, after that I really enjoyed it. I've also been playing Shadows of Undrentide at home, and I have to say I enjoyed the original campaign more so far. But I'm not very far in the expansion yet. I think the thing that has always stuck out most to me about NWN is the character artwork and some of the voiceovers which are really awesome to me. NWN is great for an RPG, because you can sit down and play it for an hour and feel like you've gotten somewhere. Unlike other ones I've played where it's only a 60 hour long game because the player has to backtrack over the same area a ridicolous amount of times.
