No quest requires killing. This is not to say there are no hostile creatures or no possibility of combat, because there certainly is. But this module can be completed entirely via sneaking past (hostile) enemies, stealing things, disguising yourself, talking, and perhaps running away.<br /><br />Because of that it should be a different experience for people. I expect some people to not like it even after I am upfront about things. <br /><br />People expect combat in NWN2 modules. So this is an experiment to make a module where combat is discouraged and the rogue's strength of stealth and skills are the way to succeed.Kamalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17637115231105776944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7272872431029789665.post-28144484373890481152011-02-02T15:29:29.040-05:002011-02-02T15:29:29.040-05:00So your able to complitly avoid combat in this mod...So your able to complitly avoid combat in this mod?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7272872431029789665.post-87263560936418064372011-02-01T12:13:25.597-05:002011-02-01T12:13:25.597-05:00Well, you can fight in this module. There's a ...Well, you can fight in this module. There's a couple standard "dungeon with monsters" areas. However, the idea is to make it so that if you do fight, you should not fight fairly but lay traps, sneak attack, cause cave ins and other sneaky "rogue-ey" things.<br /><br />Since there's no xp for fighting, there's no inherent incentive to fight. Quests are either conversational (ie convince someone to do something), exploratory (go from A to B), or aquisition (get some object).Kamalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17637115231105776944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7272872431029789665.post-86420068147639489932011-02-01T10:47:00.871-05:002011-02-01T10:47:00.871-05:00That sounds great!

(except that I planned to leave the combat option for a few plot scenes and as a very hard panic way to get out of hostile situations). Now I guess I get to enjoy it without sweating myself :)Amraphaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11831382638321957822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7272872431029789665.post-5518874246887130072011-02-01T05:29:26.882-05:002011-02-01T05:29:26.882-05:00I truly admire your work with the nwn2 toolset so ...I truly admire your work with the nwn2 toolset so many fresh ideas and cool concepts.<br /><br />its gonna be cool to see how this rogue mod of yours plays out :) <br /><br />Best wishes in your continous effort for the community !Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
