Where to buy NWN2?

Post by Relic »

Ok, so my main computer crashed, finally got a replacement, and when I try to reinstall NWN2 I find my main game disk is too badly beat up. So....any recommendations where I can get a new one, preferably as a download? I am stateside, and playing on windows. If I have to buy from Amazon, I can do that, just would prefer not to use a disk again.

GameTap also has the complete package: here.

Most digital distribution alternatives to Steam are run by existing bricks and mortar stores like GameStop and do not keep such old titles. Steam is your best and cheapest bet if you want just NWN2 and expansions.

Sweet, thanks guys. I bought it off Steam, and downloaded and installed, when I get back home from Disneyland this weekend, I will log back into the server, and get all the ALFA haks. Look forward to creating another PC and getting back into it then.

Hmmm, if Relic is going to play again, maybe I should get NWN2 again and make a PC ....

I've been looking all over, trying to find the game and all expansions for Mac. Anyone else got better luck finding anything?

Apparently they removed it.

It was on the mac app store and on aspyr's store but they removed everything.

Should be a problem with Atari.

Your best bet is to buy the PC version and run it with bootcamp.

If you want I can try to upload the executable I have but it is signed for the Mac App Store so you'll need to find someone who is able to crack it...
Might be easier to find a cracked version with BitTorrent.

It's actually not for me as I wouldn't be caught dead with a Mac. But it's for a member who's found himself a Mac-user right now and I want him back into the game so I figured i'd find a copy and buy him one :)

Maybe it will come back in a while with a different price.

You'd best ask Aspyr.

Duck, playing with you again would be a hoot!!!

Ok, I've got a problem all, and I'm not sure how to deal with it. Got the game installed, updated, and it looks like all the Haks downloaded correctly, but when I log in, I get to the character selection screen, pick my character, and then get booted. Is this something on my side? Help? :lol:

Someone smarter will be able to give a full answer, but almost sure it's a CD keys issue... you may "somehow or other" be known as associated with keys to a prior NWN2 install... but the new install, means new keys. I am afraid that may only be a hunch / half clue, it's something that happens to people who buy the game more than once. I think. IRC may assist.

LOL, the exact same thing is happening to me. Probably the CD key, I'm still trying to figure it out.
