Has anyone here tried the new Neverwinter Nights pay-to-download premium modules? I'm curious, as I would be willing to pay the small price for modules that are a cut above the average bug filled theme hashed mess that make up most community modules, but not if these really aren't any better than the well done community modules. The website doesn't really reveal enough information to entice one to buy. 1 or 2 nebulous screenshots and a short blurb of features?

I''m also waiting for some opinions before I take the plunge. And it doesn''t help that I still haven''t finished Shadows of Undrentide or Hordes of the Underdark.

And then there''s this little release called Half-life 2...

Heh, I know what you mean--it''s not like I actually have the time . . .

I finished Shadows of Unrendtide, and slogged my way through 99% of HoTU. I didn''t finish it though, simply due to the fact that the end boss is insane, and my dwarven fighter/priest isn''t even close to uber enough to take him.

Just do what I did: die 3 or 4 times on the final boss, then turn on God mode just to see the ending. Any character that can make it to that point should have a realistic chance of finishing, and if that character doesn''t, I would say it is more of a balance issue than anything else. I had the same problem with the original NWN campaign. I cruised right up to the final boss, then got squashed several times before I turned on god mode and kicked some butt.
