    Here are today's Neverwinter Nights forum highlights. 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.

    Area size:

    Let's put it this way:

    16x16 is the max recommended area size. From a design point of view, you should never need to go above that, if you find yourself in the need to go above 16x16, rethink. From a technical point of view, going above 16x16 is bad, just plain bad.

    Stat caps:

    Quote: Any developer insight on why the stat caps are what they are? Are there any plans to raise them in the near future?

    We looked at raising those caps during the development of Hordes and unfortunately it didn't work out. From a design point of view, this isn't too bad, as, according to the rules, ability score increases should not stack anyway (but they always did in NWN, so we wouldn't change that). However, for a variety of abilities (i.e. mighty rage), it would have been very nice to have the stat cap being raised. No prediction for the future, as I am not on the Live Team, but this topic is definitly on their radar.
