No, this won't be scaled back. That was the part that the players liked very much . The problem was that the DM had to do this for each and every NPC and (more or less) monster, which was a huge load of work.I just hope that they scale back the feats and such some. I'm sure they won't, but the most unenjoyable part of NWN2 OC was trying to figure out which feats to pick. I liked the idea of being able to do spells silently or with extra power, but with so many spells, it got confusing. All those extra options were just way too much.
And in NWN2, you could always use the "recommend" button, or whatever it was. This didn't require any decision at all. That's the best for everyone .
