Oh I'd have to disagree with mr. Desslock. I think that, in some instances, they are far superior to Oblivions even. Though yea, the requirements are awefully high. I suspect it has more to do with the aged engine running in the background, but I couldn't say for sure.
I've not played it all, not even close. A few hours of it. I must say in those short hours it certainly was marvelous! I cant wait for next tuesday to roll around.
And yea it's getting some real serious critical praise by those who've been lucky enough to play it extensively. I hear Desslock said something akin to
'Who ever decided to let Obsidian do NWN2 is an f'ing genius!' lol.
