tgarrett5: Diamond worked for me. I have around 10 copies. Now I have a couple of EE to go with it.
It's no money at all. Who cares?
The ten computers and LAN stuff cost a lot more than the copies of the game.
Look, if you like the game it is a good place to spend some money. It's your money so you can buy whatever you want with it. You don't HAVE to buy EE. I don't smoke or drink or do drugs so I have a bit of disposable income and I really like NWN even though I almost never have time to play.
I guess what set me to posting here (oops, won't happen again) was seeing so many people so upset over $50. Life's short, if you spent the time playing the game rather than groaning about the cost you may be happier.
Maybe not, your mileage may vary
either way, play the game. That is what it is for!
The new Arby's Deep fried turkey sandwich is pretty tasty by the way. That with a warm double chocolate cookie would be worth eating whilst slaying vampires in Dark's Eye of the Beholder! (Eleventh level of the dungeon maybe?)
It's such a huge bargain that Beamdog could make all the profit it deserves with the money it would save by buying up copies of it's own game!
