Product Description:
Neverwinter Nights 2 (NWN2) is a computer role-playing game set in the fantasy world of the Forgotten Realms, one of the popular campaign settings of Dungeons and Dragons. It takes the player from the tiniest of villages into a sweeping tale of danger and war, chronicling their rise from a peasant to a full-fledged hero of the Realms, defending it against one of the greatest threats of the age.
In Neverwinter Nights 2: Mask of the Betrayer, players are transported back to the Forgotten Realms shortly after the events detailed in the original Neverwinter Nights 2. Following the climactic battle against the King of Shadows, the player awakens alone and stranded deep beneath the earth. Surrounded by a horde of evil spirits, the player embarks on an epic adventure that reveals his true destiny. Set in harsh, spirit-rich Rashemen, near the powerful nation of Thay, Neverwinter Nights 2: Mask of the Betrayer will present players with an exciting new campaign; epic levels; dozens of new feats and spells; new races, base classes and prestige classes; new companions; new weapons, armour and crafting options; hordes of new monsters; and enhanced modding tools.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - HUGE Improvement
Mask of the Betrayer is definitely the strongest of the NWN 2 series of games. It does shrink down the number of companions you can have, but this means that it is easier to get to the bottom of the various background stories without having to play musical chairs with your party all the time. Also, the companion interface is now better, giving you an idea of where you stand with your group and granting different bonuses on these interactions. The combat has greatly improved, and looks awesome ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A great game marred by a silly "feature"
I have mixed feelings about this expansion. Mask Of the Betrayer has caused me to do something I haven't done since the nintendo days, cheat. I've never used 'cheats' for a game. But when mask of the betrayer introduced the ridiculous spirit meter system, causing me literally hours of pure frustration, I resorted to the only thing that would allow me to experience the game.

The spirit meter looks good on paper - introduce a system that makes your choices and tactics more meaningful ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Wheres Bioware when you need them
the spirit energy angle ruined it for me. Would like to have spent more time in the adventure and less time looking for spirit energy.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - I thought it was actually better than the original campaign
I've played most of the major BioWare (as well as others') RPGs -- Baldur's Gate, Planescape, even the most of the original Ultima series -- and really enjoyed this game. Engaging story line, rich characterizations, good NPC AI, immersive environments.

In many ways I found this even better than NWN2 OC, because frankly, I found all the empire-building aspects of that game very tedious after a while, what with building the castle, etc.

The thematic plot of the game really ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not As Good As The Other Packs
I am writing this review for my husband, as he is the player of this game.

He told me to say that he has always liked (very much ) the rest of the NeverWinter Nights series. He has about everything from the start.

He said they changed some things in this one that made it more difficult to play, also a little boring in spots. Wish I could be a little more specific, but I don't play this one myself.

He just said suffice it to say it is quite a bit different than ... Read More
