    GameBanshee is reporting that Atari's Neverwinter Nights 2 has been delayed until late October. According to a representative from Obsidian Entertainment, "the sheer size and scope of Neverwinter Nights 2 and its 50 to 60-hour single player campaign" is what prompted the KoTOR 2 developer to push back the release date. NWN2 had an impressive showing at this year's E3, taking home Best RPG awards from both GameSpot and IGN. Look at it this way, the delay will give you more time to play Infinite Dungeons.See also: Obsidian's Avellone on breaking into the industry NWN mod creator on Atari, Infinite Dungeons Atari halts NWN1 support, in financial ruin

    Over at Penny Arcade, Obsidian co-founder Chris Avellone has some advice for aspiring game designers. A creative force behind RPG classics Fallout 2, Planescape: Torment, Icewind Dale and the upcoming Neverwinter Nights 2, Avellone is always an entertaining read. He values persistence, practical experience, and attention to detail over academic background. And if you want to be a writer, a sense of humor doesn't hurt, either. Just make sure your email address isn't SuperMageCockLord@yourmomma.com. Chris will explain why.See also: NWN mod creator on Atari, Infinite Dungeons Obsidian's Urquhart: happy thoughts on KoTOR 3
