Will there be some mini-games in NWN2 ? (http://nwn2forums.bioware.com//forums/viewpost.html?topic=495265&post=4294480&forum=95&highlight=)
I think (hope) that with some of the new script/gui functions (which arent full featured in the game, but there are some) plus some liberal twistings of the world map functionality, the community will be able to do a lot.
I look forward to what the community will come up with.

Devs: Current news on the DM Client (http://nwn2forums.bioware.com//forums/viewpost.html?topic=492990&post=4293379&forum=100&highlight=)
As the programmer that actually wrote the DM Client TDD, I guess I can give you a brief update on this subject that is so dear to some. :)
As always, I have to qualify it with the disclaimer that all this is subject to change, as there are always things beyond my power to control, but what I state here is how things stand at the moment.
Work on the DM Client will start near the time work on NWN2 finishes here (I think I'll take a short vacation somewhere in there =P).
The current plans are to implement the DM Client with 100% of the features the NWN1 one had with maybe some minor additions. Then we'll release it in the form of a patch as close as possible to when NWN2 is actually on the shelves.
Once that pass is finished, there are plans for more things on the DM Client. I have some ideas for it I think DMs are really going to love, but I can't really say anything else about it for now. :)

Dragon*Con: Saving the Best for Last (http://nwn2forums.bioware.com//forums/viewpost.html?topic=495219&post=4293860&forum=95&highlight=)
Chris "The Ave" Avellone, Josh Sawyer and myself are at Dragon*Con in Atlanta for the the next 4 days. These will be the last pubic demos of NWN2 prior to launch.
Who's coming?
