Here's a direct link to one I liked: http://saga.pri.ee/NWN2/WP/NWN2_SS_1.jpg
I can see an improvement from Fable, too: http://www.vgamers.de/screenshots/fable/fable_e3_12.jpg
That dragon just says to me "Rawr".
If they keep their word punctuality-wise, this will be many DnD fan's dream come true.
Pretty cool that they will have additional core classes as well. So far they have revealed that they will have the Warlock class.
I -cannot- wait for NwN2.
For those of you who missed the first screens (they were taken down :( )
Here is another link, this one also has even *more* screenshots to whet your whistle.
Here's a link to one of nwn2news.net's mirrors.

Disappointing, and judging by how NWN's initial videos were far better than the finished product, I'd say NW2 is going to look like dirt on release.
But anything is an improvement on NWN.
The initial videos were created using a different engine than Aurora, it used an engine from another FR game, who's name escapes me. They switched to Aurora as they got farther into NwN.
Something is bound to go wrong.
Whether it be the graphics, that look on par with Fable, which is comparatively ancient, or the content, due the incredible amount of... I don't like to say whats knocking around on the NW2 forums harrassing Obsidian to spent more time on the OC (Which you can play once before it gets old) and less time on PW support (Infinite fun) as "Online gaming is just full of griefers".
I remain totally skeptical.
I heard there were capes involved in NWN 2.
That's a good omen.
Register for nwn2news.net and they add screenies to the gallery as they are aquired. I have a copy of all if need be. Just ask if you cant view them.
I'm excited about mounts.
If my memory serves correctly, "mounts" was downgraded to "horses".
Say bye bye to your Dog riding for Halflings.
They can have ponys, or something... Damnit! I wanted to see a dwarf riding a warsheep or something.
Why is he wearing a diaper? The thought is utterly disturbing.

[puts down his Dragonlance novel] Ack, so much for my fantasy of having my paladin ride on a silver dragon.
Yes.
Dragonriding went out of the window a long time ago. I'm almost certain someone will take advantage of the horse riding features and make a hak for the dragons though.

Dirt?
That's some sexy dirt, if ever there was some.
I cannot even fathom that you think these screens are on par with "Fable" .. Is there something wrong with your monitor?
What Nawti said. And I've seen some other outdoor screenshots with foggy swamps and stuff. Looks awesome. I can fix the original post some time later.
http://ve3d.ign.com/articles/666/666655p1.html more nwn2 HI Res screenies including HI RES TOOLSET for your delight.

I just peed a little. Those renders are the cat's ass!
They even bothered to make the monsters look like the drawings in the Monster Manuel. How very considereate of them, unlike Bioware who made all those bizzare, cartoonish orcs and goblins. The best bioware model was the Beholder. All of these from Obsidian look fantastic.
Oh man i think im gonna have to get a new pc... my 40 gig 256 ram p4 isnt gonna handle that. :cry:
Have they gone publc with system requirements?
No but a Pixel shader 3 card is highly recommended
whats a pixel shader 3 card? lol
New cards. The 6xxx series and higher for NVidia, I dont know the ATI ones But Nvidia were there first, the game has been tested in NV cards since the ATI range is only just out for testing. I don't touch ATI cards anyway so just get a 6800 and be happy
6800's have been discontinued. The only available 6800 card now is the 6800GS.
