What's the max party size JrK? Is it still only four as in the OC? If comparisons to BG are to be completely valid, I think it really should support the classic AD&D party size of six. I've only just started the OC and aren't finding the combat half as interesting as it was in the BG series.

Whilst the character influence system is an improvement from what was offered in vanilla NWN, it still leaves a sour taste in my mouth in the combat department most of the time. Having said that I'm not yet into Act II (up to the Archives).

I've also heard some fascinating things about Storm of Zehir's economic system. Sounds like there's more dynamics and that it's a tad more complex than from previous games. The lack of forced party members sounds like a good thing, as well.
