About this Episode
Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross roll on through the first portion of Neverwinter Nights 2.
Let's face it, this is an awkward, awkward game. They heydey of Dungeons and Dragons CRPGs didn't involve 3D graphics or voice acting, and Neverwinter Nights 2 leans on those when it ought not to. But that doesn't mean there's nothing to recommend it. Beyond the infuriating camera, you will find a really fun adaptation of the D&D 3.5 ruleset, and some very inventive story beats.
This episode covers the entirety of Chapter 1. The next episode will cover Chapters 2 and 3.
