The problem with that system is pretty self evident. Which coders are you going to pull off the actual game coding to research/write the needed codes? Is it possible to code PW's into the NWN 2 system, yes. Is it going to be cost effective in the long haul? No. That kind of thing isn't really relevent to the game. The stuff that really should be, and is being drastically under emphasized, such as the DM Client, are where they needed to place priorities. All in all, if they resolve the walkmesh issues, and reduce the actual content the players would have to download to play, and make it work within the game, as with the updater in NWN's, then it won't be a game breaking issue. If they just blow that kind of stuff off, it can be.
