So, playing NWN 2 EE on Steam at the minute. Or should I say I’m trying to.

The performance of the game is absolutely atrocious. Here’s the list so far;

- It bugs out and crashes during simple conversations with NPC’s very often.
-The load times between screens take 30 seconds to a full couple of minutes sometimes
- there’s lag ANY time I open a menu. Be it inventory, character sheet, whatever. It stutters
- broken and glitchy sounding dialogue

I really want to play this game, I do, but for a supposed EE version of an old game it’s running like absolute ass.

I thought at first the issue was the fact that I own the original game on GOG, and my laptop was getting confused were to pull files from or something. So I uninstalled both games, then only reinstalled the EE version on Steam.

This has had no effect.

Is this just the way this game performs and behaves? Is there a fix? Is there something I’m missing? I’m not the most tech guy out there, borderline simpleton with that stuff, but I refuse to believe this game is designed to play this bad

Hey, so I'm playing as a Shifter atm on a run of Shadows of Undrentide and I've just recently found out that gloves and gauntlets don't seem to merge with the shifted shapes (although pretty much everything else seems to). This was just after buying a rather expensive pair of magical Gauntlets of Dexterity +2, which set me back about 8000 gold!

I'm just wondering why gloves/gauntlets don't merge? Is it a bug, or is there some reason for it? It seems a bit weird that they are the only items that don't merge, and that they wouldn't be just rolled in to armor.

So you know how in NWN when you examine an enemy you see which effects they are under? Is there a mod that does that for Nwn2? I know you can see your own buffs when you examine yourself, so it should be possible. If it doesn't exist it's no big deal, but it was a useful function so it'd be nice to get it back.
