Aa already stated, NWN is an entirely different game from BG2. Taken alone I, too, prefer the BG epicness, the grand scope and party control. The 3 campaigns in the official content are mediocre to pretty good, but what makes this game the best value for money ever is the unlimited amount of new modules to play.
The quality of some fan-made mods is pretty damn amazing (many are better than the bioware content!) and the variety available almost endless.
There's humor, epic stories, hack&slash, naughty little tales, puzzle-heavy adventures and philosophical voyages on par almost with PST.
Also, you have about 1 hour time to play? Take a small module. Want something long? There are custom campaigns with 50+ hours of gameplay.
And if you REALLY want to invest time, you can make your own mods (not a chance I could ever try :D )

With science, you can turn a frog into a Ph.D. ...
and still keep the frog you started with.
