So I just loaded up the Heroes of Neverwinter FB game and was pleasantly surprised! You can recruit your friends (even if their chars are much higher level than you :smallbiggrin:) and the quests are quite fun. At least, the one n00b quest I went on in Normal then Hard mode was fun before running out of energy. The graphics are cartoony, and they kinda bog down on slower systems, but still enjoyable, and while there are only 4 different races and classes (no paladin, sorc, bard, etc), they did a great job capturing the 4th Ed game play.

And not to start a whole conversation on PnP games in the VG forum, but I thought the 4th Ed rules seemed way more adapted to computer gaming than actual PnP gaming (though that could just be my lack of experience), so this game was pretty darn fun.

Anyone else tried it yet? I got me a lvl 2 eladrin wiz, and I must say I love the AoE effect on Acid Arrow, not to mention the DoT it applies to everything within the blast radius.
