<hr />t seems Obsidian just gave them all fighter out of lazyness. <hr />Both sources (3.0) had favored class as fighters for all four. I would happily change them to the 3.5 versions if someone could point out a reference.<br />

<hr />So boasting "loads of new monsters" translates to 5 eh? I'd consider that, a few new monsters, hardly loads.<hr />I’m not sure where the “loads of new monsters” quote is from, but it wasn’t from Ossian Studios, I assure you. There’ll be 4 new monsters in MoW. As this was our first NWN2 game, we wanted to make sure we didn’t try to bite off more than we could chew with regard to creating new art content, so we kept the art scope smaller (and it was also Atari’s request that we do that). This won’t necessarily be true for our following games. Unfortunately, I can confirm that the gelatinous cube is not one of the creatures in MoW. However, we have definitely made a note of several of the monsters people of have mentioned here. Who knows – you might encounter our jellied friend in the future. <img src="http://forums.bioware.com/_commonext/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif" /><br /><br /><b><a href="http://nwn2forums.bioware.com/forums/viewpost.html?topic=607171&post=5587615&forum=122&highlight=" target="_blank" >Mow right release date?</a></b>
<hr />I noticed that GameSpy has January 25th posted as the release date for MoW. Is this just speculation on their part?<hr />Since Atari has not announced a specific date in this new year, then what you see on Gamespy is only speculation.<br /><br /><b><a href="http://nwn2forums.bioware.com/forums/viewpost.html?topic=611369&post=5587619&forum=122&highlight=" target="_blank" >Walkthrough?</a></b>
<hr />gamebanshee.com usually makes excellent walkthroughs for most RPG games. They made great walkthroughs for NwN 1, SoU, HotU and even most of the Premium modules. They've also made great walkthroughs for NwN 2 & MotB so I'm sure they will produce a Mysteries of Westgate walkthrough once the game has been out for a bit.<hr />I have to agree - GameBanshee does a fantastic job with walkthroughs for RPGs.
