Description
Sapphire Star is a Forgotten Realms module, based on a PnP campaign, the Guardian. The module is developed for a full single-player experience of the Western Heartlands, including character development, non-linearity, good/evil plot courses, lycanthropy for players (werewolf and wererat), large quests and areas to explore, multiple endings, exciting conflicts, new spells, original song and an optional intro movie. See the Readme file to your right for more details.
Well-constructed world, nice event scripting, but the plotline is so stilted and the dialogue so forced that I couldn't bear to continue playing. Not at all my idea of "heavy roleplaying".

Just started SS, and holy crap some of the dialogue is atrocious. I just met the barmaid and 20 seconds later we're declaring love? Yaballa, have you ever dated someone? The module would be greatly improved if that "romance" didn't exist. It's just BAD. Lots of other conversations also force you into very bizarre single choices. For example, the priestess in the bar got pissed at me because I don't respect arcane magic ... huh? Where did that come from? And my only option is to get pissy right back at her? What was the point of that? I'm going to give SS a chance and play a bit longer. I really hope these early failings are just aberrations. Yaballa, what is your definition of "heavy roleplaying"?

Please make your profile public so we could access it from within a module's page (ie, this page). With the new nwnvault interface the "other modules by this author" link is now ONLY available within said author's profile (which is PRIVATE and can ONLY be access by himself by default!) _________________________ I do not have a superman complex; for I am God, not Superman!

Is there any connection between killing Lorna and the beggar outside the first town inn going hostile?

Kayos: the key you got from Bafdor's for the door in the Abandoned Tunnel area. The key to the south door you get from the Dwarven king.

Just started it, played a few hours...and I'm all 'wow'. I've never hoped to see so much of Fallout in a NWN mod. Even though I'm not sure it's intentional (and it seems that no one else has mentioned the similiarities), it just made my day. :D So tell me, I'm curious - is it or is it not Fallout-inspired?

Great mod but having alittle trouble...(kinda spoilery) I got the key from Bafdor in the Dwarven village but when I go to the South door it says I need the correct key.bashed the outside dorr but the key doesn't ork on the second one either... Anyone else?
