Neverwinter

Neverwinter is a MMORPG that focuses on the aspect of cooperative. The entire game is based on the principles of the fourth edition of the role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons, and the production is responsible studio Cryptic known among of City of Heroes and Champions Online.

The game takes place in the reality of the created for the needs of the paper original universe Forgotten Realms, specifically in the area of ​​the title of the city of Neverwinter. The action begins a hundred years after the magical plague completely transformed the whole continent. After the old empires, leaving only memories, most of the cities lay in ruins, and the ruins covered in possession hordes of monsters of all kinds.

One of the few survivors of the metropolis was Neverwinter that cataclysm survived almost unscathed. Calm residents lasted 75 years until the eruption of a nearby volcano. This event devastated the whole city, and in one of its districts cracked earth, creating a gap, which began to crawl dark creatures. Worse, using all the fuss, behind the walls przekradły also more common maszkary likes of leprechauns.

At the start of the game situation in Neverwinter has already partially recovered thanks to the intervention of Lord Neverember Waterdeep. He arrived in the metropolis with numerous branches, took part in the areas of order, and then appointed himself Lord Protector of the city. Now calls on all adventurers and heroes to help him restore the former glory of Neverwinter, hoping that after this he manages to win the crown. But dark forces are conspiring to thwart his plans.

Neverwinter does not offer one big virtual world instead of this game is a blend of MMO elements and a more traditional network action-RPG oriented cooperation. Safe areas of the city are open areas for all. We find, among others, guild halls, shops and banks, and the streets run hundreds of players.

While the same adventures are instantiated. Individual tasks similar to those known from the traditional RPG titles. It is in their struggle, exploring vast locations, side quests and enhanced story. The group must always count on the five heroes, and if there is no living people to fill all the roles, the missing space is artificial intelligence. By creating their characters, players choose from five character classes (Warrior, Wizard, Rogue, Cleric and Hunter) and of classic fantasy races such as humans, elves and krasnolody. The authors also took care of a very extensive system of creation of appearance, so that everyone can create their virtual alter ego in its sole discretion. Combat mechanics based on the principles of the original paper, so the key role played by statistics and skills.

At the same time, however, the clashes made clear elements of skill, so a little natrudzimy maneuvering on the battlefield, and we do not find here the option to automatically attack. Instead, each blow and you have to spell fire manually, and to survive is required to perform high-speed evasive and seeking a position of tactical advantage.

An additional attraction is the presence of powerful and yet easy to use tools to easily create your own adventures. Shared editors do not resemble typical instruments moderskich. They are much simpler and their use does not require knowledge of programming languages. The whole developed more as a virtual reflection of the role of the Game Master of paper than the original tool with which currently arise entertainment products. At the same time, despite its simplicity, the editors offer tremendous flexibility and allow you to create virtually any adventure that comes up each user.
