Buying NWN2

Post by Curmudgeon »

NWN2 is available as part of the Neverwinter Nights Complete package, including NWN1 with both Expansions, NWN2 and both Expansions, and a couple of the Premium Modules as well. Vendors listing this package online include Amazon, GamersGate, and GameStop, among others. Prices run as low as $29.95 for these multi-disc packages.

Fine thing to see it on sale-- the longer it survives, the more enjoyment we get out of work put into it.

Those are older posts I am afraid, my friend. Here are the pages which did offer them, but they are no longer available except perhaps for Gamersgate:

Amazon - it is so rare here the price is $75 and is not directly from Amazon

Gamestop - It says the game is Currently Unavailable

Gamersgate is the only one that I can get it to post to a checkout, but I don't have the $30 to purchase it. This one I will ferret out to some others who may be looking for it and update here if all goes well. NOTE: if you do get it and have win 7 64bit, make sure you install with compatability set at Windows XP sp3

Next time you log on to ALFA, instead of doing "direct connect" take a look at all of the servers up on the roleplay tab, and count up the number of players logged on, preferably during a "peak" gaming time. This is pretty much our universe of available players of the current game, give or take. What we need to figure out as a community, is how to distinguish ourselves so more of those players want to play here than elswhere.

Amazon sells all 3 games. it is fairly easy to type nwn2 in the search bar and buy either the complete set, or the gold edition plus storm of zehir. storm of zehir at $43 is what is causing the price issues, so any cheaper source for this should be favored, like the gamersource link.

whoever started the rumor you cannot buy nwn2 anymore should be corrected.

i'd still go with GOG overall.

bottom line is there are at least 2 retailers, one of them Amazon (which counts as multiple retailers), carrying the game

Hello NWN2 shoppers. For those interested in putting their head in the mouth of the beast, you can still walk out your front door and into a WalMart and get the collector set with everything for under $30. I bought one just for fun a couple of months ago, along with a collection of all the Bioware RPG titles for $20.

As was mentioned though, why would someone want to buy an old game unless a server like ours enticed them to do so? Go ALFAmarketers!
