    Here are today's Neverwinter Nights 2 forum highlights, collected by NWVault from Obsidian Forums. Please take into account that these are only single parts of various threads and should not be taken out of context. Bear in mind also that the posts presented here are copied as-is, and that any bad spelling and grammar does not get corrected on our end.

    Ferret, Developer

    Familiars
    The combat abilities of familiars in PnP are far outweighed by the consequences of a familiar getting killed. All of the talk about how we're handling familiars is speculative - but my current plan is that they give their master appropriate skill bonuses, scouting abilities, plus a cool extra or two I don't want to mention (in case we don't have time to implement those bits). Familiars would be treated as non-combatants and can't attack anyone, but on the plus side they can't be attacked in return. P.S. Nutty Boo says "hi".

    FrankK, Programmer

    Employment Opportunities
    In Australia, even a Trainee Programmer position will attract 100+ applicants. How are the things with employment in US or Canada (gaming industry, IT, etc.)? Competition, expertise/experience/knowledge required, etc.
    It has been my experience that the US has had a shortage of experienced software developers for quite some time. We receive about 10x as many applicants for entry-level positions as we do for experienced developer positions and many of those applying for experienced developers are marginally experienced.
