    Maybe one of the first scores under 9 out of 10 at Gaming Illustrated, who gives Neverwinter Nights a score of 8.4.

    Back on the positive is the interface, making a welcome return is the radial right click menu from Planescape Torment, by right clicking a character you get a circle of options, you click one and another circle of related options pops up, its highly intuitive and makes for a far less crowded HUD. There are a series of Quickslots too that you can customize, assigning a spell, a potion, a weapon, a special attack, whatever you like by simply dragging and dropping. The camera is never a problem either, if you have a mouse wheel then you can control it all through that. I did have some problems though with my henchmen, getting my hired Rogue to pick locks was somewhat akin to getting blood out of a stone. Sure he’d tell me he could pick it, but most the time just stood there looking pleased with himself until he figured out I wasn’t just asking if he could do it out of interest…he was actually meant to pick it. Hopefully this will get fixed…
