GameSpotting With NWN

GameSpot's most recent GameSpotting column talks almost entirely about Neverwinter Nights, but it isn't as positive as most of the reviews out there. Instead, the article is very critical of NWN, which you can see from the snippet below:

    I played a lot of Baldur's Gate, and I miss having a party of characters instead of just one. I know the one-character limitation in Neverwinter Nights is some kind of pen-and-paper thing so that everyone can log onto a dungeon, but for me that takes away 90 percent of the strategy that made Baldur's Gate so much fun. That game was a tactical battle simulator with magic in it. Yeah, you had to talk to some people, but whatever. It didn't get out of hand like in Neverwinter Nights. And the 3D battle thing now looks more cool and realistic, but that's not exactly a replacement for the strategy. And it doesn't really look all that cool, either. Not like Dungeon Siege, anyway.
