@DarthOniXVIII: Basically it's like a real small scale MMO. People make mods and host servers and basically act as the GM for that server. So they determine where you can go, what items you can get ect. From there you can either go it solo, or you can party up with other players. I had some friends that were really into it, though I never had the time to really join them unfortunately. In some cases they decided to drop some of their actual D&D games to just have one of them host a server and then they all play through various modules and such they made. Overall it's was pretty cool. I'd imagine outside of the graphics it would still be a pretty cool experience now.
Theoretically with dragon age one, they were supposed to have been using an updated engine and new mod tools that would basically allow for people to make the same type of stuff that they did in Neverwinter Nights but on a grander scale (more mod support for things like cutscenes for example), though it's been a very long while since I checked in on that, so I have no idea if it's thriving in the same way the Neverwinter Nights mod community thrived.
