I gave it a try, but wasn’t too impressed. Also, I think the offer has expired if you didn’t already sign up for it.

The game kinda felt like Neverwinter Nights (2), it had equally painfully boring story (7 hour segments of talking to peasants about the latest developments in the potato industry, your dumb family history and the like). Of course, the graphics are better, but there’s no multiplayer, no cool 3.5 D&D system, only 3 frigging classes and no Nerdy Show voicesets, so why bother?

Whining about the crunching was my first post on Nerdy Show page, before I joined the forums or anything, and since it demanded you to have a handle I wrote “M” just to put something in the field. I didn’t expect them to react to it at all, actually, though if you whine to someone “I don’t like you doing X” then what’s the most obvious reaction? And yeah, Nerdy Show has some serious level of audience engagement, which is why you often hear them bringing up listeners by name in the podcasts.

As for NWN2, I quite like it, I have a running game with my wife right now. I play somewhat addled human wizard who has a tendency to ramble on incoherrently about unrelated franchises and blanket the game area with massive spells hitting friend and foe alike.

The voice mod kinda fits since its D&D game. Of course the game itself is old but there is a lot of player made adventures for it since game with pretty good toolset and the ruleset is extensive. I didn’t play Dragon Age super far, but.. from what I could gather it’s basically The Witcher ripoff with DLC’s right?
