I didn't care about a single drop of what you just wrote, until you mentioned "The Foundry".
This is now on my radar.

Hey! Remember that time I was watching a game trailer and came on myself? Well, de ja vu, mothafucka. The co op and dungeon creation features sound great.
Cryptic is careful to say that Neverwinter != Neverwinter Nights. Same universe, different style of play. 4th edition rules. So, that said, adjust expectations accordingly.
As long as they don't make it too action-rpgy (Diablo, Dungeon Seige, Loot-Whores: The Hack and Slashening), I'm in for it. Actually, just fired up Star Trek Online so I can learn how to use the Foundry ahead of time.
Don't confuse the Foundry with the DM tools we had in the NWN games. The STO implementation is dissimilar. It is not a live tool, but something you can prescript missions with.

I was originally excited when I heard "Neverwinter", but then I heard the co-op dungeon crawler part and that excitement quickly dissolved. Don't get me wrong though, I love the genre. I'm REALLY looking forward to Torchlight 2 and Diablo III, but it's because of those games I'm not interested in this one. Runic and Blizzard will just do a better job. Too bad, a true NWN3 would have made me incredibly wet.
Been following this since it was realeased. Seems like it shall be awesome in every single Dungeons and Dragony way.
I am SO excited for this. It might not be a new Neverwinter Nights game, but it looks like a great D&D experience. The Forgotten Realms is my favourite fantasy universe, so being able to go around with a bunch of friends is extremely appealing to me. Can't wait!
"Neverwinter is dubbed as a co-op RPG and attempts to take the pen & paper experience to the PC"
Not with four classes it isn't.

I'm surprised at the excitement for this game. Cryptic's last two titles, Champions Online and Star Trek Online, were and continue to be rather bland, unimaginative, and, at best, average MMOs. Both games suffer from the same "we have good ideas but are completely unable to deliver on them" syndrome for which Peter Molyneux is the poster-boy. Neither MMO has any depth at all.
Further, Cryptic was just sold last week to China-based Perfect World. I have no idea how the change in ownership will affect Neverwinter's development, but it doesn't seem a big stretch to think that the transition will have some effect on the studio and this game.
Anyway, my personal prescription for Neverwinter is a healthy dose of skepticism. Cryptic has yet to prove that it can deliver a game that fulfills even half of its pre-release promises. I'm not sure it's a good idea to get too excited for any Cryptic game at this point.

Yah Neverwinter Nights this game isnt. Its an online co-op action RPG and with a developer like Cryptic Studios. Smells like a disaster. I wish Atari would lose the d%d license all they have made is mmo's and that piece of garbage daggerdale in the last 10 years.
@Lazyman,
what MMO's There's DDO which actually is not bad if you are into that sort of thing. Other then that... I have no idea what MMO's you're talking about. But I will agree I wish Atari would lose the license, but they have it until 2017, apparently.
