CRPGs...but honestly, that is very...fluid.

I've been playing them for the most of my gaming life (so since early 80s), but I wasn't at the first that much into them. Then at second half of 80s I started plying D&D at the table and that was turning point for me - from that point on whenever I'm playing or DM-ing some TTRPG, I'm not playing CRPGs, since I find TTRPGs to be superior experience. But when I don't have anything going on at the table, I tend to go back to CRPGs. So I guess they are surrogate for the real thing for me, no matter how much I like some of them, and why when I have something going at the table I gravitate toward action-adventures and action-RPGs.

You were the only other person I could think of to inform. In case you didn't know, somehow, Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition by Beamdog just got a brand new expansion last month called "Doom of Icewind Dale" and it's actually supposed to be a direct story continuation of NN. I just picked it up for $7.50 to complete my NN collection bundle, and I'm looking forward to checking it out! Loving that those games are still getting some support.

Although this does remind me of the sting knowing we'll never get Icewind Dale II: Enhanced Edition due to the source code being lost

Here's the Steam link in case you're interested.
