It also depends what Edition Rules we are using.... hopefully 3 or 3.5 and not 4..... I am already planning Story arcs and Missions to be carried out.....Throw in some concepts from some of the best RPG's out there to date......
If my wife divorces me I may have to blame you :o

The entire way NVW is being developed makes this my most anticipated Beta. Unlike STO's Foundry this entire game is being built around it and could very well bring to reality the promise of the Dungeon Master in online gaming. Very very intriguing. The fact that Cryptics had plenty of time to test and debug the tool from the get go will be a plus, as we might be aware of the original technical difficulties in STO and player abuse in CoH. They're not going in as blindly as those other features went in.
Having the power of the character creator in this new setting is also a very good asset. I don't expect the art direction to be as polished as TERA, for example, but I expect unmatched customizability.
The fact Perfect World stopped their launch last year to make it more of an MMO and F2P from the get go I view as plusses. In short, it's pretty promising. I hope they pull it off. It could merge the neverending world openedness desired by sandboxers with the accessibility and mainstream appeal of a themepark setting. I really wish them the best.

Sounds like a good approach, but I need to see an example of this modding's capabilities first.

Originally posted by Suzie_Ford The game is maily aimed at a group of 5 players delving into dungeon in instances as well as open areas. It might be like CO, in which you have quests in public areas as well as dungeons and sewers. Foundry may initially have only instanced missions during launch, but to make public area foundry tool is on the wishlist of devs. |

Originally posted by Obidom Its based on 4e. The setting is post spellplague(100 years after it), same as the 4e Neverwinter campaign pnp book. It seems most content from game itself would be canonical for pnp too. |

This game has the potential to be the best mmoRPG ever made, emphasis on the RPG. It's biggest failing is 4th edition, which was complete trash. Normally this would automatically disqualify any D&D game from being great but the videos show exceptional work being done, not to mention the game looks extremely fun to play.

Originally posted by Suzie_Ford If they really want the NWN modding community to get on-board, they need to find a way to release the Foundry Toolset ahead of time. Bioware did it with NWN1, and Obsidian did it with NWN2. It ensures that there will already be player-generated content from day 1, and lets other people see what regular, average people can do with the tools. I modded for persistent worlds in both NWN1 & 2, and I'm already writing my story for NWO. |

Originally posted by MMOwanderer Exactly. To (selectively) quote Raph Koster: http://www.raphkoster.com/gaming/laws.shtml Never trust the client. Hyrup's Loophole Law Psychological disinhibition ------ So, here we have Cryptic (who really aren't half as clever as they think they are IMHO) not only putting the client in the hands of the enemy... but the whole game. Now, I am sure that in time we will see some real good quality content out of a system like this. But in the mean time we will most likely have to wade through piles of crap. And those piles of crap will drive away a good proportion of the playerbase in the first 3 months (or less) Yeah, those who remember the craft of Role Playing and Dungeon Mastering will love this title and in the end will build a tight (if somewhat small) community... because there aren't that many people who know that craft left. MMO players - as a group - are arseholes. They will - as a group - happily drive other players from a game for "LOLz" even if it means destroying a game in the process. We have all seen it time and time again. As always - I will wait and see - but Cryptic don't have a good history and I really doubt their design team is up to the task of thinking through all the potential abuses and cutting them off. I'm picking that 6-12 months after release (when the majority of the MMO crowd has gangbanged this title and moved on) this game will have a solid (but small) community making good content. Unfortunately for Cryptic - accountants don't like to wait 6 - 12 months for a modest revenue... Nothing says irony like spelling ideot wrong. |

Not only would you have community driven advnetures like PnP, but you would have third party companies paying for content development. This is how I would love to play DnD because it's the best of both worlds.

Originally posted by Gyrus Just a slight addition, based on STO Foundry: they don't put anything in the hands of the "enemy", so while there could be a-holes in the playerbase, you won't have to wade through no piles at all :) I guess, just as in STO, Cryptic will put the user content in-game, meaning there will be a pretty decent filter which will hold back the crap, farming-based or just simply lame content. Edit: maybe not the lame ones, there's a few in STO as well... If they don't break any rules, they can sneak in-game. It's up to the players then, to low rate the lame missions, so they could sink to the bottom of the list, where they belong. |

Originally posted by JimmyYO I agree with your first statment, anyway. I've played pnp D&D since the mid-70s and I think 4e is the best version ever, way better than the utterly unbalanced 3.x To each his own.
