just running through the eve 21 day trial. Not going to subscribe as school starts in 4 days. However I am waiting to see if Darkfall does get released on the 22nd.
I recently got a hankerin' for some old-school Baldur's Gate action. So I went back and played through Baldur's Gate with the bg1tutu mod that allows you to play under BG2. Beat that a couple of days ago, and now I'm playing through Baldur's Gate 2. This stuff is quite fun after not playing it in a long time 
What manual had had the best smell?
I rate manuals from games I buy regarding smell, papper quality, thickness and coating.
How close are you? Does this include just installs or do you rip the discs to HD too?
Well, I'll probably snatch myself Storm of Zehir before too long. We'll see. I've heard some crappy things about the camera, so I think I'll wait until a patch is released.
There's a lot that I like about NWN2. Unfortunately, there's also a lot I don't like so much. Primarily the slow pace of the game and the long load times. I still enjoy it enough that I've beaten it a number of times, mind you, but I don't like it quite as much as some other modern RPG's (like Oblivion). Maybe I'll find the game more enjoyable after my next computer upgrade...
There's a project out there somewhere to update Falcon 4.0's engine, part of the result of which is so that it can run on newer PC's. It's been a long time since I looked it up, but I think this is it:

I haven't played the expansion, but vanilla NWN2 had camera issues. Was it never fixed, or did they actually release an expansion that reintroduces problems from earlier games?
It was never really fixed IIRC. They tried a few times but no cigar. Once I got used to it it was okay.
They changed it significantly with the release of the first expansion, and I rather came to like that new camera. Or rather, pair of cameras: you get a choice between a more personal behind-the-character view (whose name escapes me at the moment) and something more akin to isometric (strategy mode). There's quite a bit of customization available, too.
So I dunno. Like I said, I'll probably get it, but not right away. I've got other things on my plate at the moment...
Character Mode and Strategy Mode. Strategy Mode is purely top down and plays sorta like an RTS. You can select multiple party member with click and drag to issue orders and you never 'embody' any one particular member. In Character Mode you can move the camera freely around the character you're currently controlling and you only directly control one party member at a time. I liked Character Mode from a top down perspective.
