Has anyone seen a confirmation on what the party size will be in NWN2? I saw a couple dev post on the BIO forums a few months back stating that this hadn't be decided yet, but that it was likely to be somewhere between 3 and 5. I can't say that I've seen any recent screenshots that show a party larger than 3.

I've been combing the BIO forums for more info on this, but haven't seen any recent updates. Has anyone on these boards seen anything about this recently?

I know it will be a fair bit larger than NWN1. I would shoot for 5-6. But I can't remember it been confirmed anywhere, in any interview or any offical post on the forums.

The parties will be four.

1) You
2) Companion#1
3) Companion#2
4) Companion#3

You state that very matter-of-factly. Care to elaborate on how/where you found this out?

Okay, so apparently I didn't do a very good job searching the NWN2 forums initially, as I just located this thread:
http://nwn2forums.bioware.com/forums/viewtopic.html?topic=488637&forum=97&highlight=%20%20party%20size

I guess when I'm looking for something that's single player specific, I shouldn't spend all my time searching the "general" forums in lieu of the "single player" forums. /sigh.

Thanks for the info Halasz. You were indeed correct.

I should hope we will have control over a full party with VASTLY improved AI.

We supposedly will. They say it will be more like KOTOR and KOTOR2, i.e. you'll be able to actually assume the role of a henchmen and move them around, cast spells, etc.
