Neverwinter Nights Chat Record

For those in attendance last night to the House of Commons: Neverwinter Nights chat with BioWare, lots of new specific questions were asked... though neither mine nor Buck's two apiece made it in. Have a look at the complete chat log, posted graciously by Neverwinter Stratics. A gander:

Question from A0ij: Will amulets, cloaks, quivers of arrows, etc show on character models?

Response from bio_marc: re: equipped stuff... We are of course showing armor and weapons-in-hand, but we have decided not to show the full range of 'accessories'. There are two main reasons I can think of right off One being perfomance - we want the game to run on as many computers as possible, so keeping the total number of parts in play at once as low as possible is very important and also the HUGE number of custom character models You have such a wide range of characters you can play, we simply can't be sure that cloaks and quivers will attach properly to every possible armor combination... You do have your custom portrait, and you can show yourself equipped any way you like there...if that helps...
