The world of RPG has always been a rocky one. It is like a group of statisticians looking for the grail. Still, it is one of the purest game forms. not bend on impossibility, but on imagination. A world that was formed by hundreds of books telling tales of mystical times, of magical challenges and the principles of the war artisans.
A game like that partially existed and was called "Baldurs Gate". These designers took a long look and improved an a great concept. the result is "Neverwinter Nights". It starts with the challenge of finding 4 creatures that form the cure for a plague. When at last you find the 4, and when you make the cure, then you will learn that it is only the introduction to something far more. walking around this world. fighting the creatures of evil, searching the places of darkness is so compelling, you can be at this for many many months. And to top this all off, there is a toolkit that will allow you to design your own challenges. For you or for your friends.
If you are new to the RPG world, then this game is a great place to start. If you are a RPG fan, then you cannot afford, not owning this game.

BEST RPG IN THE WORLD!!!!!

This game is definitely the best RPG ever!!! When I started playing it, I couldn't get off the computer for a week!!! If you're a fan of RPG's at all, then you should defintely buy this game!!! Even if your not, you should still buy it!!! that's how great it is!!! This is also a totally great deal!!! For just $..., you get the game($...), which comes in a collector's edition DVD case, a book of never-before-seen Neverwinter Nights art, an official BioWare t-shirt, a huge poster of Aribeth (thats printed on canvas, not paper), a mousepad that doubles as a map of the Sword Coast region, a game guide, and the official soundtrack on a CD!!! The box is also totally great!!! It has a picture of Aribeth on it, and is made of this hard, heavy duty cardboard, so it wont break or get damaged!!! The price might seem a little high, but it's not. I bought it at the reduced holiday price, which was only $...!! If you guys didn't then you totally missed out!!!
Also, even if you didn't like the game, Aribeth is still totally SEXY!!! ; )

That is all

Everyone is saying that oh man this game is great! But I believe it is not. I am a fan of just about all RPG's but I have to say that this did not meet my expectations.
First off this game requires a tremendous system with a 3d accelerator which is not included in most video cards.
Next is the complexity level.. To do most things like casting spells it requires clicking on average about 10 times.. now you can set hot keys but they do not make it very easy.
Lastly the amount of reading you have to do is just to much to handle. I've beaten the campaign that came with the game and for about half the time i was playing, I was reading.
I would ONLY reccomend this game if you have a amazingly powerful system, a knack for being in COMPLETE control, and a lot of patience.

super cool

I started playing this when I was seven. I've loved it ever since. See, The graphics are really cool, but could use some getting used to. First you start in a training place after you make a character. The character can be a wizard, sorceress, druid, fighter, ect. It is alot of fun because you can pick from already made characters or you can make your own. Then you have to complete your training and then talk to Aribeth where mages attack you. Then you gotta get to the Waterdavien creatchers, but they escape. Basically its alot of fun. You have to get them. Thats all I got up to. Once outside, there are four places you can go to to fight. I say you should first go to the Beggars Nest specially if you have the power to turn the dead. If you can, it will be so easy to kill all the zombies. You can even make up your own game. And your own conversations, you can even make up people to fight in the game and place them anywhere you want. The bad part is that when you can do majic and you find a scroll that can summon a dire boar, when you go to sleep to regenerate, the boar disappears and you have to sommon it again, so if you are planning to summon something like that, either become a scorceress and when you're making the character, all you have to do is put that under your 'spells' or you can become a wizard and learn that by putting the scroll in your spellbook. Basically, I reccomend this for all people who like RP games and Fighting. If you've played Diablo, or Diablo 2, this game is somewhat like that only better.
