| If I may interrupt Q's conversation with Q ;)
Part of the reason Thain went with a party message initially, was that NWN assumes you are sharing more information with the rest of the party/you're more observant of other party members than you are with other characters. You always know where they are, you know what kind of shape they're in HP-wise etc.
Adding a party message is very quick script-wise.
I think we later added a distance check to that system for more realism, and there was ... |

| hmm.. too many to recall :p
As yasmyn mentioned there's bobbin the gnome paladin saving the day in his underpants, first words he says when the rest of the party finally catch up are: "so, did you bring my armour?"
I played a very luckless elven fighter-mage once, his story's pretty much told by the deaths, which include falling three miles down a pit - unable to help, the rest of the party who are gliding down controllably, cast faerie fire on him so they could at least tell where the ... |

Maybe a brief run down on some areas - not so much the history stuff, but the builders intentions behind them - for example giving a few egs. of newbie areas, tough areas etc.
Any background stuff that all players should know (there's already a lot to read, but a simple ... |

| IMO I agree with the above - when it is the players vs the world it feels very competitive and players start having to worry about mechanics and so on - it can feel like a game that needs to be 'won'.
