Just a thought!
I was just comparing the Chapter Length to BG. It seems to me that the Chapters are longer than in BG. Is this true the whole game or just for Chapter 1 (the one I am currently in).

because I see you are just new to the game. trying playing till the end, you'll see that NWN is short compared to BG2.

its short compared to bg2 try comparing it to bg. bg2 has like 6 chap i think. and the only real long ones are 2nd chap. the rest only take along time to beat cause "people are slow".bg2 really depends on how much exploring you wanna do.another thing that dragged BG2 on for a long time was completing a romance. i beat Bg2 in about 30 hours rushing thru it.

with NWn i still take about 40 by going thru fast and knowing what i have to do. the difference between bg2 and nwn is nwn incorporates all its main missions into exploring every last corner of every map. bg2 you didnt even have to leave the first map to go onto the next chap.bg2 just had alot of side quests that where optional for exp.
