That is why genres exist. Finally, the fact that IWD2 is coming out does not change the fact that NWN was a sell out, and not the game which most gamers waited five years for. [/b]

Whatever your opinion in the matter, NWN has on the whole been very well recieved - the reviews are positive and the game is selling well. Then, of course, after so many years of waiting, expectations are bound to be high and not all players are satisfied with the result.
Genres is a way to categorize different games, not to exclude them from your gaming experience. You could very well play games from different genres without any negative effects, fear not.
I actually prefer BG2 by far myself but think NWN is fun as well.
I still cannot see what makes NWN a "sell out". Under what obligation is Bioware to produce exactly the kind of game you ask for? Have they promised NWN to be anything else? To my knowledge, Bioware have been rather forthcoming with information about NWN already from the beginning.
I mentioned IWD2 in hope it would bring you some consolation but apparently I was wrong.
