Yeah, doesn't get much easier to source than GOG. Fair deal. Bit of a reflection that yes, the game is friggin' old.

That's great news! Also, we should totally post on their forums, pimping ALFA.

As a bonus, it seems that GOG provides CD keys normally for NWN2, which it did not for NWN1 (you had to email them requesting keys).

How about I go back to coding, and someone else does the PR thing. :P

Please add an update to front page of our website "Neverwinter Nights 2 Complete Game with Expansions can be bought here " with a link to this. We do have the links now, but you have to click on "How to connect to our servers" on the left menu to get to the links, a bit clunky imo. Big bold link with something like the above text so there is no mistake.

This one is better i think.

http://www.gamestop.com/pc/games/dungeo ... tion/99051

No NWN2, but has temple of elemental evil which was waaay under-rated.

And only $4.99!

BG1, BG2, IWD1, IWD2, Planescape, TOEE

Didn't buy it, but i would if I had time to play any of those (well not IWD1 or 2 which i thought were sucky)

1st one has TOEE as well as NWN2 + expansions, which is probably more useful for most of us.

btw if anyone gets TOEE this site is simply a requirement, otherwise the game out of the box is rather unplayable and definitely far less enjoyable:

http://www.co8.org/forum/index.php

There's two versions of the mod, standard version (99% original game content aside from bug fixes and such) and NC (new content, new adventurers, spells, lvls past 10, etc); both are well done though NC does end up being a rather different game experience. The original game based on the module by Gary Gygax isn't very interesting story/plot wise unfortunately (GG wasn't really known for those kinds of adventures).

As an aside, TOEE is a decent way to learn many of the basics of 3.5e pnp turn based rules as it's much closer to pnp out of the box than NWN games.
