I'm playing a female gold dwarf paladin right now and she's working out well.

We aren't implementing Imbue Item. Sorry.
Alignment and conversation (http://nwn2forums.bioware.com//forums/viewpost.html?topic=490627&post=4235610&forum=95&highlight=)
Most of our alignment shifts happen during conversation, always (in the OC) due to the actions of the main PC.

A change of Heart.. (http://nwn2forums.bioware.com//forums/viewpost.html?topic=490620&post=4236508&forum=95&highlight=)
In the OC, I think this will be entirely possible.
If your character starts out as, say, a Neutral rogue, and then makes enough Lawful and Good choices in the game, they will indeed become Lawful Good. As long as that character has the other prerqs for becoming a Paladin (e.g. ability score requirements), you'll be able to start picking up levels in Paladin.
Since there are quite a lot of opportunities to shift your alignment in the game, significant alignment shifts will take a little time and commitment, but can be done.

That build was old.
That is the old GUI. The new GUI interface looks much better, is faster, and easier to navigate.
Also, as to the frame rate, that build is not optimized. Our framerate is much, much better now and it gets better everyday.
Another thing that has happened since the video was made was that Erik got a new personal space system in the makes the combat look a lot better.
I'm trying to think about what else has changed since that build, but it is too much to remember at this time of night.
