This is a review of NWN and the author urges you all to send him emails about his review, whether you liked it, whether it sucked, what's wrong about it and such. He really wants to hear your opinions [img]smile.gif[/img]

bad review imo, I mean he's saying its slow on 128mb ram? is that suppsoed to be alot? its about minimum these days. Then he has a go at character creation for being too easy by saying the recommended button sucks, well it doesnt make the char exactly how you want it, what if you want him to be a charimatic mage for eg? most ppl think pause is a good thing to let you organise your spells in the middle of an attack or to got afk for a few min, obviously not him..theres loads more he says against nwn but looks to me he just had something against this game from the start, up to what I read I couldnt even see 1 nice thing. My review of his review - 0/10

p.s he obviously knows nothing of the game and didnt even give it a chance, going on about everything except fighters being crap and there being no way to find traps.

p.p.s "It’s too bad the concept of modding a game is restricted to the FPS genre, as Neverwinter Nights is sorely in need of something like this." - ahem came with 1 of the most user friendly editors to date?

Did you email him your opinion? I'm sure that he'd appreciate having such a horrible review corrected....

I noticed the site says real reviews by real people...was this review written by you Neb?

Neb · 07-25-2002, 01:10 PM

Nope. The review wasn't written by me and it's 100% BS. The person who wrote it might not even have played the game [img]smile.gif[/img] The "Truthmedia" section of Something Awful is dedicated to such reviews of things.

Of course there's a disclaimer in the main Truthmedia site saying so, the purpose of the reviews is to draw flames from the most retarded and idiotic people who somehow managed to get online. And then laugh at the fact that they take the damn game/movie so seriously as well as fail to check if something as wrong as the review is BS before flaming the hell out of the author [img]smile.gif[/img]

OMG I can't believe I actually read the whole thing, utter crap, I can't believe how they managed to cram that much ignorance (both about the d&d game system/WotC and about the game in general) into such a small article

I thought it had to be a joke that site has got a few very clever yet twisted guys working there. I flammed anyway...

I told him he smelled like turnips and his uncle must own the site ^_^

It's sort of a joke site. People write reviews that are totally off and throw in a few outright lies. They want to see how many people are so into the game that they can't take a joke. It's a funny site, they have some good EQ stuff.
