The other day my power was out so I went to Best Buy to see what games were out and picked up Neverwinter Nights 2 on a whim. I bought the original but never got through the tutorial, let alone played any other part of the game.
So I installed it and had a lot of fun in the village you start in and roleplaying etc (I'm a chaotic evil duergar cleric). Right now I'm in the castle with a bunch of undead in it (early part of the game, incase there is another castle full of undead later) and I'm realizing I'm not having much fun in battles because they aren't challenging, at all. Its no fun sending the dwarf guy into the fight with Bull's Strength and the Fire Weapon spell and watching him kill everything automatically while it doesn't even matter if everyone else dies because they still get XP and are automatically rezzed after the battle.
So I'm about ready to give up on the official campaign unless anyone here says it will get harder soon. So I'm looking for a module that is actually difficult and has more to it than walking forward in the dungeon and not even having to tell your party to attack because they do it themselves. For reference, I've played through several Infinity engine games (Baldur's Gate 2, Icewind Dale 1 and 2) on the hardest modes (not Heart of Fury because those are just summon-fests), with "tactics" mods installed, etc. so I'm pretty well accustomed to having to pause every 2 seconds and micromanaging every single facet of every single battle and having to reload a dozen times just to kill a few nameless enemies. And thats how I like it. So really I'm looking for a NWN 2 module(s) that have difficulty similar to something like Icewind Dale 2 on Insane mode with the Tactics mod installed. Any old schmuck can give you a level 1 ranger and then send you into a dungeon full of glabrezus and say "LOL YEAH THIS MODULE IS PRETTY DIFFICULT LOL"; thats not what I'm looking for obviously :P
EDIT: Story doesn't really matter to me. As much as I like roleplaying (which is why I enjoyed the village at the start of the game), the module could have you starting in a dungeon with no backstory whatsoever for all I care. A good story is just gravy. I wanna kill me some monsters!
