Summary: Please join Jastin, Aroen, and Brian from the Realms of Trinity and the NWN Podcast as they are joined by Sebastian aka Pandemic13 creator of the upcoming NWN1 Persistent World, CITY. In the news, we discuss the latest round of NWNP NWN2 Model Contest submissions and the campaign finale rollout of Realms of Trinity 2. Show Notes: NWN1 Night and the City created by haunted_shore based on travel-international www.wix.com http://www.wix.com/haunted_shore/nightandthecity CITY is an open-world module set in a star-lit, urban metropolis.. What started out as a simple PW adaptation of the Thief universe, soon developed into an original setting with factions, stories, music and ideas all of its own. CITY takes place in various urban locations of an unnamed city, where other modules strive to create vast, sprawling vistas (often terribly) – CITY attempts to create a realistic and believable urban feel, with claustrophobic streets, heavy atmosphere and incredible detailed environments and lighting. That’s not to say CITY is monotonous, the designers have moved toward making each section of the city have its own distinct characteristics and themes, as well as creating lush tropical green houses, brooding sewers and colossal underground scrap yards. “CITY is not a post-apocalypse server, or a survival mod or a steampunk adventure. It’s a fantasy module with the lights off, set within an ongoing period of urban decay.” CITY features an extensive universe and allows players to either create a CITY-native or a new arrival, depending on how much reading they’re prepared to do. New lore has been created for all base races of Neverwinter to allow players to remain comfortable in an otherwise intimidating environment. A customised soundtrack is in place with original music written and orchestrated for the CITY module, as well as using licensed music from film & TV, classical and jazz.
