Also the way they have every enemy drop atleast some gold when you kill them adds to the game as well. Gives you that little bit extra to look forward to after a kill. I find myself looking for the little pouches of joy while playing NS but they don't show
The ambushes while transitioning and resting in 3T are also great for adding that little bit of uncertainty that makes games more fun.
Was playing the Mount Drassa area, the mountain lions they have that are already in stealth mode and sneak up on you are awesome. Was fighting a giant had just enough health left to beat him, but all of a sudden out of no where this mountain lion appears and knocks me on my rear, after which I was fodder for him and the giant.
One thing NS does that 3T doesn't do it is the way luring is handled. The way enemies can't be singled out and lured so easily in NS is great.
