NwN 2 is a RPG, the game that made me buy it just becouse it was the sequel to NwN, a game that i played and i liked more as an rpg than any other game.

The dialogue in the game is ok, allowing you to talk to any one, allowing you to make your one choices and suffer the consequnces of your choices .

The first impression of the game is ok, the game is very coloured, the spells make a real lights show, the fights are very cool, and the landscapes are ok.The player character is a resident of the tiny village of West Harbor, the place of a titanic battleground where the King of Shadows was thought defeated. The player character’s fate is intricately tied to this historical battle, where the character’s mother was killed and infant character raised by the elven ranger Daeghun Farlong. As the game begins, the player character is a young adult, never having left West Harbor and with little knowledge of his or her history.

The hero’s companion’s are:

Khelgar Ironfist - the good-hearted, fight-loving, mouth-smashing dwarf that will never hesitate to break someone’s theeth if he get’s on his nerves

Neeshka - a neutral thiefling that will join the main character, that will always help around with her lockpicking skills, and sneaking and thing that thiefs do

Elanee - a neutral-good wood-elf, that will join the main character, she is a wood-elf and a druid and will always have nature-oriented and good opinions

Qara - a chaotic-good sorceres, that will join the main character, and beeing one of the main damage dealers because of her fiery powers

Grobnar Gnomehands - a Chaotic Good, Rock Gnome Bard, that will always sing a courage song for you and you team-mates

Casavir - a Lawful Good, Human Paladin, that will join the main character before fighting the big, bad orc boss

Bishop - Chaotic Evil, Human Ranger

Shandra Jerro - Neutral Good, Human Fighter

Sand - Lawful Neutral, Moon Elf Wizard
Zhjaeve - Lawful Neutral, Githzerai Cleric
Ammon Jerro - Neutral Evil, Human Warlock
Construct - True Neutral, Construct Fighter

Graphics, a yeah, one of the most important part of the game, the game’s graphics are pretty decent, but not revolutionary, that means it dosen’t really hurts your eye, but nither please it so it’s ok if i can say so.

The sound track is ok, and it suits the game.

The game life-span is about 40 hours for an average game, and with the side-quest 50 hours.

The game’s price is 29.99 $.

Overall it’s a good game, and worth playing.

8.2/10.

 ”In the first two parts of Gothic, you fought along a hard way from being a prisoner to becoming the hero of Khorinis, the strategically important mining island. Now the time has come for you and your friends to discover and fight across the mainland of Myrtana.

The situation is desperate: The orcs have beaten King Rhobar’s troops and are ruling the most important parts of Myrtana, enslaving the human population. Only the tricky inhabitants of the south and the wild barbarians of the icy north are holding against the orcish domination.

And there are rebels, lurking around in the shadows of Myrtana’s forests and trying to fight a hit & run guerilla war. It’s your choice if you want to join them or the orcs - but whatever you do, the destiny of Myrtana will depend on you!

Gothic 3, is a action-RPG game that was very rushed and it wasn’t very successful because

JoWooD released it before the guys from Piranha games finished it.

Now the game has it’s good parts, like the Huge world worth of exploring, and you have a forest most of the land in the middle, in the north of Myrtana is the cold Nordmar, and in the south there is the hot dessert of Varant.

Now the combat has changed a bit from the two other games that Piranha games produced, because it’s an all around combo fighting not one target like in the two other games.Personally i liked the other fighting mechanics but these are good as well, talking about the game’s graphics, most of them are very impressive because it’s a huge world you can see and be amazed about it.There are a lot of weapons you can use in this game varying from small swords to huge demons swords and crossbows and bows, and you can also use magic if you are a magic adept, but i personally prefer combat not magic.The game’s AI is not very intelligent and someties it can kill itself.Another AI defect is that a simple boar could kill a full armed till it’s teeth that’s not cool.The game was very bugged because of the rushing.

Overall it’s a little disappointing becuase of the rushing the guys from JoWood.Let’s just hope Gothic 4 will be better.

“The northern lands - that is the Nordling Realms, described by Andrzej Sapkowski in his novels and short stories, are threatened by unspeakable doom. According to the prophecy of Ithilinne, an elven seeres, the world will be destroyed during the Time of White Cold and White Light - frost, snow and a glacier that will cover the lands from the north.

A cruel and bloody war with the southern empire of Nilfgaard and the elves has recenly ended, but left the northern lands ravished and destroyed. The reign of quarrelling and short-sighted kings is falling. Amongst the chaos and confusion, a new bastion of peace rises - The Order of the Burning Rose. The monk-knights promise to bring peace and prosperity, and unite all the Nordling realms. The knights claim that the coming frost may only be defeated by the power of fire, which they worship. However the ones to survive the cataclysm are generally the pure-blooded Nordlings. The Order is getting more and more powerful. It has been given lands in the kingdom of Aedrin and fights there against the elves from the Valley of the Flowers. The monks want to win favors of the monarchs from the twelve northern realms, and strive to acquire the wastelands inhabited by elves.”

The Witcher, let’s just say that 2007 wasn’t a too great year for the RPG-s, it wasn’t just a not so great year for the RPG-s, it was the WORSE DAMN YEAR for the RPG-s, but it all this thing, one of the only 2 good RPG-s is The Witcher.

Now, talking about the game, The Witcher has some very interesting combat mechanics, pretty simple, and yet very intresting, and it’s about timing your atacks to result a combo of 2,3,4 or 5 strikes.Now the game main characteris Gearlt, a witcher, who everyone thought he died, but wakes up follwed by something, and he reaches at the Fortress of Kaer Morhen, an ancient witcher fortess, where all the witchers have thier origin.

Now, talking about witchers, they are a special kind of human, mutated by using of specials potions, and all looking pale, almost like a dead.They have super human strength, agility, preception(and in Geralt’s case also charisma).

Now the main porpuse of the witchers are monster killing, because witchers are professional monster killers, and they are born and trained to do that thing since childhood.It is said that a witcher has no emotion, an unparalled sword mastery and skills to acomplish anything.What will you see in the game just proves everything that is said about a witcher is true, becouse Geralt is a witcher, if not the best witcher.

In Drakan: Order of the Flame, you play Rynn, a warrior-heroine who teams up with a wise and powerful dragon named Arokh. With their souls bonded as one, Rynn and Arokh embark on an epic quest to rescue Rynn’s younger brother from the clutches of an evil sorcerer. This gorgeous 3D adventure seamlessly blends aerial and ground-based combat, challenging puzzles, and a host of bizarre creatures as you battle it out in the stunning fantasy world of Drakan.Ive played this game a long time ago, but was one of my favorite.

With good play engine and and fantastic music, this game make fill like i was in a real story. What did i like so much was the mode that we can control two personages in the same time, this give me power.

I was sorry for not could play the second one, Drakan 2 on PC.
