<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Over the past decade, Dungeons & Dragons has gone from a nerdy niche tangled up with a satanic panic<\/a> to a mainstream IP where a bunch of nerds can sell out Madison Square Garden playing it<\/a>. Stranger Things<\/em>\u2019 kids on bikes<\/a> helped shed a positive, post-satanic-panic light on the game, and its popularity has only grown since. Plenty of folks, myself included, played it for the first time over Roll20<\/a>, and plenty more got to experience D&D through Baldur\u2019s Gate 3<\/em><\/a>, 2023\u2019s Game of the Year<\/a> (and contender for game of the century).<\/p>\n

But before Stranger Things<\/em>, Roll20, and Baldur\u2019s Gate 3<\/em>, Dungeons & Dragons enjoyed decades of adaptations and multimedia projects, from several novels to 2000\u2019s bomb of a live-action film. Neverwinter Nights 2<\/em><\/a>, originally released in 2006, adapted D&D\u2019s 3.5 edition ruleset for a sprawling RPG. I\u2019m a more recent D&D player who\u2019s played as much Baldur\u2019s Gate 3<\/em> as the tabletop game it adapted, so I was curious to check Neverwinter Nights 2: Enhanced Edition<\/em> out. After its opening hours, I wish I had just started up a new Baldur\u2019s Gate 3<\/em> playthrough instead (it\u2019s got new subclasses!<\/a>).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Neverwinter Nights 2<\/em> is Obsidian\u2019s sequel to Bioware\u2019s Neverwinter Nights<\/em>, a neat detail considering that Obsidian also<\/em> followed up Bioware\u2019s Stars Wars: Knights of the Old Republic<\/em><\/a> with a sequel. (Bioware also developed the first two Baldur\u2019s Gate games, because time is a flat circle.) I loved KOTOR2<\/em>, and especially its combat, so I thought Neverwinter Nights 2<\/em> would just as easily suck me in. That wasn\u2019t the case. Neverwinter Nights 2<\/em> has similar combat to the KOTOR games, but it struggles to translate the turn-based, planning-intensive aspects of the tabletop game I love to a video game.<\/p>\n

Two of the most fun words a DM can say are \u201croll initiative!\u201d Whether your party has accidentally triggered a trap, been ambushed, or instigated a fight, rolling initiative elicits excitement (and maybe a bit of anxiety, depending on the situation). There\u2019s no roll for initiative in Neverwinter Nights 2<\/em>, and therefore no pre-battle rush of excitement. It lacks KOTOR\u2019s automatic pausing when an enemy is sighted. Instead, you just run around areas freely. Utilizing your turn\u2019s movement to carefully position your character in the tabletop game is absent in Neverwinter Nights 2<\/em>.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s also no turn order; combat is real time, in a way. Like in Knights of the Old Republic<\/em>, you\u2019ll select an action for your character, and the animation will play out. Your actions are on a short cooldown, mimicking D&D\u2019s idea that a round of combat is six seconds long (that\u2019s right \u2014 your climatic, 10-round, five-hour fight against the Big Bad Guy only lasted about a minute in-universe). If you actually want<\/em> to stop and carefully plan your turn in Neverwinter Nights 2<\/em>, you\u2019ll have to pause the game every six seconds to get the lay of the land.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I started playing as a Cleric with only healing and protective spells, and the real time combat really sucked away the fun of preparation as I rushed to cast a protective spell on a companion. The dice rolls are relegated to a text box on the lower part of the screen, and I had to pause the game to keep up with their outcomes. Ultimately, Neverwinter Nights 2<\/em>\u2019s combat doesn\u2019t capture the methodical approach to slow, turn-based battles I enjoy playing so much on a tabletop (virtual or real).<\/p>\n

The abundance of combat sessions can work in a tabletop campaign\u2019s favor, if that\u2019s your group\u2019s jam, but works against Neverwinter Nights 2<\/em>. It gets in the way of the storytelling, which didn\u2019t quite hook me in the first place. Your character\u2019s village is attacked, and your father sets you off in search of some macguffins. It\u2019s a perfectly fine premise, but every D&D campaign I\u2019ve played has engaged me from the start (shoutout to all the incredible DMs out there and their storytelling abilities) and Neverwinter Nights 2<\/em>\u2019s dull hooks slipped right by me instead of sinking in.<\/p>\n

So for anyone like me, coming off Baldur\u2019s Gate 3<\/em> and wanting more virtual D&D, perhaps look elsewhere. You might be better off playing Obsidian\u2019s other RPGs, like Knights of the Old Republic 2<\/em><\/a>, or exploring the first couple Baldur\u2019s Gate games<\/a>. Or, do what you really wanna do: restart Baldur\u2019s Gate 3<\/em>.<\/p>\n
