I consider myself to be at the very least smart enough to install a game properly
and then to fix any problems that might occur .I also consider myself to be patient with companies releaseing games with some flaws.

That being said I would like to take neverwinter nights out to the trash can and burn it into a smoking pile of melted plastic. I recently received it from my mother in law for a christmas gift(I new she hated me). The thing that bugs me is that after 4 hours of trying get the game to run past the opening sequence, I still am not able to play. I've gone to the web help pages, called the technical support line,( don't even get me goin on that %$%$%$$ ),uninstalled ,reinstalled,mokeyed around with directx,tryed to get the auto-updater to work,
changed every system setting that is possible on windows 2000, and still the game locks up at the start new game screen. I've had enough, it shouldn't be this hard,it makes me want to weep.

If bioware hadn't released such agood game in SoA and ToB, I would curse them.

It's back to Irenicus's dungeon for me.
