Lets hope it will be a better implementation than NWN2.

Don't put much hope in a toolset for NWN3, from what i have read about the subject so far, the game will be more like an MMO then what we were use to with NWN1 and NWN2 and since it's Cryptic making it, i wouldn't be surprise if it end up to be another WOW clone.

FYI From an article I saw....

"Perhaps the most controversial decision made by Neverwinter developers is to not make the game a Massively Multiplayer Online game (MMO). Over the past decade, MMOs like Blizzard's World of Warcraft have come to dominate the game market, with millions of gamers participating simultaneously in a real-time world. Other games, including the extraordinarily popular sci-fi MMO EVE, have also enjoyed success in the genre. In this case, it seems Neverwinter developers are banking on the idea that MMO gamers might be growing tired of a genre which places them in a universe filled with swarms of competitors, many armed with game-breaking hacks and cheats. Sticking to the model of a five player group of adventurers, Neverwinter will cater to those gamers who wish to have an enjoyable gaming experience exploring the vast and beautifully-rendered Forgotten Realms with a group of close friends. It is a direction that will bring the game back to the table-top roots of role playing, where small groups of friends and families gather around dinner tables everywhere to crack jokes, drink soda, and, occasionally, slay an arch-devil. If Neverwinter 3 succeeds in tapping into this sense of ambiance and comradery, it may well become a wildly popular alternative to the MMO."
