Gaming sins

haha, well, then let me rephrase.

Unintuitive game builds because there's only one or two viable options despite the fact it's toted as something where you can toy around with different builds.

At least you can play as whatever you want in Neverwinter Nights 2 and not feel like you went down the wrong path.  The game will take care of your character creation if you're new to the whole 3rd ed thing, and for people who like to metagame, there's plenty of options that are all viable.  (My personal favorite: Enchanter Red Mage.  I lost out on most defensive spells in the game but my DC vs. enchantment spells was absurd.  I just charmed most everything I fought or put it to sleep for a coup de grace.)

Spluff:
Only a couple of viable builds? Dude, you can go through the ENTIRE game of Fallout without even fighting a single enemy, if you want to. There are at least 3 methods to get through the game, whereas pretty much every D&D game's method is : kill the enemies.

clockworkjames:
By LAG I am including "Connection errors/interrupts" and stuff, ping reg interpolation etc. are most likely what you were told about. LAG is an unstoppable force of evil when packets are dropped or connections are lost, you can replicate *some* of the stuff by messing with how you send packets, this is known as rates hacking.

The LAN Commandments

1- Honor thy admins and thy organisers
2- Honor the tournaments and keep them holy
3- Thou shall not eat fish pies or any sort of higgehfidel foods, lest the angel of the lord admin smite thee with his divine  backhand
4- Thou shall not be a drama llama, for it is the way of noobs and satan.
5- Thou shall not leech forth from others during designated game time
6- Thou shall not play Single player games, during the sabbath hours.
7- Thou shall not covet thy neighbours CD-Keys
8- Thou shall not host a network game with a password unless it's an arranged mix or tournament
9- Thou shall not use 1337 in vain
10- Thou shall not commit adultery, by raping the bandwith of a shared net connection

We don't really count hacking because nobody does it. at our LANs.

Yet again,

UNINTUITIVE.

If you loaded the game for the first time, even with the manual, would you have known that?  Or would you have just guessed as to what you should do for a character (like I did) and end up making a really sorry guy?

KvP:
well, as long as you knew the distinction between small and big guns (I originally thought Assault Rifles and such were big guns) it's just one of those things. Melee characters are advanced builds in all games where automatic ranged weapons are prevalent. It's sort of like going through Baldur's Gate expecting to kick ass as a dagger specialist.
