The RPGVault continues their interview with Obsidian Entertainment this evening, chatting about the upcoming Action-RPG, NeverWinter Nights 2. Here's a snippet on the multiplayer portion of the game:

Jonric: How will multiplayer work, and aside from more human participants, what differences will there be from going through with just NPCs?
Ferret Baudoin: If you play through the campaign in multiplayer, we do change things around because in single-player we're working on a real cinematic deep experience. What we've found is that most people playing cooperatively through the story want to get to the action a little faster than someone playing alone. So, some sequences have the option to be short-circuited to make it so people aren't sitting in dialogue as much. There are also more challenging and greater rewards so you and your buds have a good time.
