More news from the Neverwinter Nights Vault.

If your curious as to if you'll be able to play NWN on a Mac, heres your answer:

Programming the Mac version will not require a great amount of effort on our part. Our initial design for the game systems focused on the idea of porting the game to various platforms. Due to our early design work, the various OS versions should take very little effort once we have the basic low level support for each OS. On the topic of performance, I will not say anything until I see our game side by side on all the platforms, then I'll make a comment.

Also, heres some information on the collecting of experience in NWN:

The [Character] Vault will allow only limited xp / real world day. Think of the system as an automated bank teller, you can only take out $200 a day. When midnight hits, it is a new day. The plan is to limit cheat characters advancement so it cannot surpass fairly played advancement. We haven't set any numbers yet, but it should take at least 6 months of playing many hours a day to make 20th level.

Well by the sound of that it shoudln't be too easy to become a super power in this game too quickly.
