Also, more importantly, the modules for these games are a big selling point, so are there any that you guys like?

the OC has some decent enough moments, act 2 in particular is pretty neat. at the risk of spoilers i'll say it's centered around a big trial with you trying to gather evidence to proven your innocence of a particular deed, and then the actual trial itself you get to show off those noncombat skills (or let the sarcastic smartass elf do it for you) and it's really quite fun
the early parts are kinda shit however, the engine sucks ass in general, most of your companions are either forgettable or actively awful, the castle management sim later on can get tedious, and the ending is the close to the most horrendously fucking bad ending a video game could have. thankfully this is alleviated by the expansion but still.

Oldfag here. Played the game when it released back in the day, just once and never bothered with it again.
Basically, what >>3470890 said. MotB is an order or two of magnitude over the OC in terms of writing.
The graphics were really goid for its era, but the animations were a bit clunky, the charactets move lile tgey have arthritis all through the body.
Also, the writing and characters are filled with the quirky humour and edgyness characteristical from its era, what you now call reddit. In itselt the game is a bit tone deaf, the comedic relief clashes woth the super grim story it tries to tell at some points. It's like the writers couldn't decide on the tone.
Ruleset is DnD 3.5, I never cared enough to decide if I like it more than the 3 in which NWN1 is based.
Over the years (decades now) I've chosen NWN1 over 2 always, so I don't know which, or if there are, good modules worth playing. The NWN1 community is way more active, so that says something.
At the very least, NWN2 is worth a playthrough.'

Other crpgs, BG, ToEE, etc are great but they cannot have the variety of campagin material because of thier engines and how they are made. Users can't go off and make custom BG adventures.

Arguable, NWN takes a hit in the aestetics because of this. Blocky, frequently ugly, never beautiful. But its customisable, so its a trade.

NWN 2 is even uglier and has way less material made for it. I'll take blocky over 2005-era 'realism' any day.'

OC characters are all paper cut-outs of class archetypes. Meanwhile SoU has more nuanced companions, although they lack in dialogue a bit.
OC has horrible level design where you have to do shit fetchquests 4 times before getting to do the main quest, repeated each chapter. SoU has an organic quest structure in the first act, linear in second and a lite-version of OC shit in the end.
OC has dogshit loot design with dozens upon dozens of locked boxes and doors as well as random enemy drops. All of that is trimmed in SoU, along with addition of more predetermined cool loot.

You said fine enough. SoU is a steaming pile of shit and it annoys me you tards give it a pass. The story is shit, characters are boring to tears (only Deekin is passable, the other ones are a travesty), dungeons are not fun and it wasted Netheril for a low-mid level adventure when it should be an epic level adventure.

On that I agree. I never used Xanos, sometimes I take Dorna to take care ofctraps and locks (not really necessary anyway), but she's a bore. Deekin at least is colorful.

>dungeons are not fun
Dungeons in the OC were pointlessly long and the devs overcorrected in SoU by trimming too much. I'd say HotU hit the sweet spot, at least in undermountain.

>If you can't defend the campaign without hiding behind another, then you already failed.
I think a lot of the creative decisions regarding SoU took into account the criticisms regarding the OC. Hard to talk about a reaction without putting on the table what it's reacting too. Things tend not to exist in a vacuum and sometimes context is needed.
That being said, I think the OC, considrede as a showcase of what the aurora engine was about, ain't that bad, save for the million -locked and trapped- containers and the overgenerosity with magic items and gold. Among other flaws, of course.
Leaving all that aside I lament that there was never an official campaing that really shone. The best modules are fanmade.
But then again, I beleive the devs wanted to steer in the direction of MP and persistent worlds which was exploding at the time with other games, rather than focusing on single player.'

Wise words, or rather they would be if they existed in a vacuum. In context, you use them to defend a shit game.

If you stand in a room of downies, are you a genius? If you stand in a room full of geniuses, are you a retard? If you grab two games, both of them shit but for slightly different reasons, is the better one not shit suddenly? Comparison has been a folly of humanity since before we started counting time. Don't use it as a defense, especially for a game as worthless as SoU. You could have compared it to BG, PS:T or Arcanum but deep down you knew you couldn't without ruining your argument.'

The community stuff is often rather well done though and the animations and effects are great for its age.
Nwn2 looks like ass with maybe a third of the variety and a tenth of the module editors functions than NWN 1 engine wise.

On a certain level, one where I am likely giving them too much credit, it feels like that was on purpose. To me it does sort of help make MotB feel more impactful as well, starting from this swamp bumpkin loser to an adventuring do-gooder to the commander of an inexplicably important keep all while being some vague chosen one in a cliché story with a shit ending to suddenly waking up in a foreign land where everything you just did doesn't matter and you're pulled into something far bigger than some swamp idiot could have ever comprehended. Basically the contrast makes MotB stand out even more for me.

It doesn't matter. As long as their system is fun and interesting it should do well. If they're dumb and too heavy handed every imbecile will figure out the one or two good options or only viable option.

Everything. Setting was weird but not in a good, intriguing way. The story bored me. None of the companions I found interesting. The writing was a cumbersome word diarrhea. Also the stat system was a head scratcher, like they took DnD but decided to make it worse. The biggest offender was the OC donut steel every where. I know it's actually the least problem as you can, and should, ignore them but for a person who knows nothing of the developement, they might be tricked into reading all this nonsense. Additionally, I wanted for the game with a lot of excitement and had high hopes for it. Hopes that were shattered, which means I hold an old grudge.
Another proof that comparison is inherently stupid. I compare the existing PoE to PoE that I dreamed of, making my experience much worse.'

That’s so weird coming from the guy who made Pentiment. I never played PoE, but Pentiment was very engrossing. The characters felt fleshed and believable, the story I guess can’t be attributed to Sawyer because it’s really In The Name of the Rose by Umberto Eco, but overall the game hit well in every department. I wonder if this is a kickstarter thing where the lead designer must meet promises made to the supporters even if they’re detrimental to the design.

Not quite. It's about how books shape your perceptions from someone attempting to shape your perceptions.

nta, but the moment I left to city in Swordflight and ran into massive enemy mobs that required extreme amounts of micromanagement to kill (even with 4 companions, one of which is a fucking lich) I stopped playing.

my build was about as minmaxed as it could be too. bizarre spike in difficulty compared to all the Calimport content. having to slowly prebuff before every single trash mob is simply not fun, nor is having to revive companions each time they die due to having literally no control over them.

Also the respawn system is so fucking shit that the creator of the mod is literally telling magic users to just go ahead and die to respawn and get their magic back.
And you will probably want to do that rather frequently because encounters are overtuned and numerous, your companions will get also shredded like tissue paper, especially if you get the good aligned companions so no help there.

I really don't get how people like these modules, the story is shit the combat is repetitive the characters are shit because of the constant text dumps and even a lot of the maps are annoying to navigate because they're too big and open.
