->Now, you shouldn't be surprised that there is magical 'interference' at work here because on the one hand, we can pick up lifesigns so well we can identify the ''species'' of a lifeform from lightyears away, while they're hiding inside of an asteroid field--'''inside''' of an asteroid, no less? But detecting explosives ''within'' the asteroid field? [[HaHaHaNo Ha ha ha, not a chance]]. 'Interference' usually means 'from the writer'.

As it is, all our work, all our effort invested into NWN2 as a game is undone in seconds because Obsidian wanted a 'tragic' ending. It is tragic, mind, but only for the player."''

->''"And then there’s the villain. It’s a completely unrecognizable version of {{Darkseid}}, and not just because ''[Jim]'' Lee’s put him in another one of his awful, overly busy costumes, complete with [[ShouldersOfDoom football shoulderpads]] and knee cutouts. As an antagonist, he’s terrible. He has no motivation, no characterization and worst of all, he’s forgettable. He does nothing but show up, say his name, and then trade punches until this stupid story runs out of pages. He adds nothing. He is nothing. He’s worse than [[TheDeathOfSuperman Doomsday]], a character that was created to just punch one character over and over, because at least Doomsday won."''

->''"A kruel and vastly powerful sorceress from the distant future who seeks to achieve Time Kompression for inkomprehensible reasons only she knows. To akkomplish this, Ultimecia utilizes an advanced version of an Odine device that allows her to take kontrol of sorceresses from the kurrent era in order to find Ellone, who kan take her even further back into the past - which is apparently the only way she kan kast the magik which will result in the compression of past, present, and future.
