Why do so many people say NWN1 is better? 2 has a much better story, much more reactivity in dialogue and quest outcome, companions w/ friendships, rivalries and romances, and so on.Compared to 2, NWN1 is just a glorified dungeon crawlerIs it just the old = better crowd?

>>3941444old IS better. If it wasn’t, there wouldn’t be a huge creative void in video game franchises where all they can do is re-release old games with updated graphics because nobody has original ideas and/or the ability to write a compelling story anymore.
>>3941444It looks better, it have better animations, it have 3 gorillions modules that better and longer than original campaign and dlc to it, while nvn 2 barely have any at all. I guess if you want to compare just official nvn and nvn 2 plot-vice - nvn 2 is winning there, but mostly just because of Mask of Betrayal.
>>3941451okay but they're both old you retard, or you think older=better? go play tetris loser>>3941453>It looks better, it have better animationslol nope>better modulesonly argument, and this is extra-game content
>>3941454>lol nopelol yes. Fraudebsidian was soo fucking lazy, they couldn't even bother to do basic things like animating cleave attacks, not to mention more obscure stuff like - visible wings for dragon disciples. Everything just looks cheeper and lamer than in nvn generally. First nvn animations was filled with sovl, fights feels dynamic(, you and enemies constantly clashing sword and moving around without input. Second game have nothing of it. >only argument, and this is extra-game contentIt's really big argument actually. nvn2 generally don't even have much good content, outside of the Mask, and maybe Westgate, but this one was pretty short. OG campaign and Zephyr are pretty mid entries. All the potential pros of this game, like expanded classes and spells, are fucking ruined, cause there's barely any good "content" to run them with.
>>3941444NWN2's engine is liquid ass. Runs like shit to this day, it has a fucking rubber banding bug even played single player, total dogshit ally AI that interferes even when you have it turned off. MotB is good in spite of the engine it's on.
>>3941454>and this is extra-game contentthis is what the game is about
>>3941471well here is your answer oponly anons who hate obsidian's guts and build their entire online-persona around that would hold such an opinion strongly
>>3941444The people who say 1 is better were likely multiplayer server/custom module focused and weren’t talking about the single player campaigns.
>>3941444NWN2 was hated only because there was no BG2 style "romance". WHO CARES.
>>3941541No it's because NWN1 plays much more smoothly even in singleplayer.
>>3941681nwn is nigh unplayable, the module system engine thing is straight up broken and bugged
>>3941454This "extra-game content" is the main reason to buy the game in the first place.
>>3941683No.
Well, if you just want build variety out of the box without the hassle of downloading dozen of mods, then yes, NWN2 is definitely the better choice, since it's based on the 3.5 rulebook
>>3942044>downloading dozen of modswhat mods?
>>3941444NWN2 is just kind of goofy looking and dogshit. NWN1 is a malleable, blank slate that players can customize to their liking and find a metric shit tonne of downloadable modules. It's as close to a D&D campaign as you'll get in a single & multiplayer videogame. Yes, 1 looks pretty dogshit graphically, but it's got a retro dogshitness that stands the test of time, whereas 2 was trying too hard to make people say 'wow' and just kind of falls flat because of it.
>>3941844>it gets good with mods the argumentthat could mean the mods are good, it could additionally mean the mod-tools are goodbut it doesn't make the game good
>>3942089Not "mods", modules. You TES babbies are confused by this.
>>3942097>NOOO YOU DON'T GET IT!!!!1>this player/fan-authored alteration of a video game namely a set of modifications, that either alter an existing game or add user-generated content is called a module not a mod!!>although quoting a wikipedia page "videogame modding" perfectly describes itwhat can I say, semantics is a retard's last line of defenseanyway I'd like to see you argue there is some fundamental differences that make my argument invalid when applied to NWN "modules"
>>3942106It isn't a "modification", it's a module, an adventure module. NWN1 does have mods too though. But the game is designed to run modules.It's like Unlimited Adventures.
>>3942089>>3942106Do you even know what's the difference between a module and a mod, you collosal tard?
