I actually hope to be playing NWN with my GF soon, as she's vouched for the game. As for BGII, it was really the lack of direction which hurt the game the most.

The interface was alright, but I actually wound up getting into a quest which trapped me and led to a battle I wasn't prepared for and could never have handled (which was irritating, since I had already saved).

I also couldn't shake the feeling that the game would've been infinitely better with multiplayer, hence why I expected multiplayer to be the saving-grace of NWN.

Look up the Players Resource Consortium when you get around to NWN with her. The base NWN/SoU/HotU has about 40 classes or so and the PRC adds about 60 more including spells, races...etc.

Sorry to hear about your BG2 experience. Was it facing down Lord Firkraag? That can be an unpleasant "OMG WTF!" moment the first time you see him.

Also, BG2 does have multiplayer.
