Are people still doing this? I'm tempted to play after reading an article on /. and a discussion I just had with Wil about how he is kinda wanting to go back to WoW but would rather do something where we could play together.
I like the new pay-or-play for content system. Totally right up my ally -- sub for a few months when I really want certain content, then go back to free play when I don't, and just purchase the high level stuff I need. Seems way more worth my time than Guild Wars ever was. I just wanna know if you guys are still playing.
Edit: And now I see the majority of posts were from like a week ago. LOL I guess that means yes. Guess it took awhile for this to finally happen after the announcement back in like May. So yeah, gonna talk to Wil about it tonight then I guess, we may be joining your ranks.

So, I tried this tonight...and I don't think I'll be playing again.
[trollbait]The controls are wonky, the interface is weak, the graphics are at times poorly designed. Weaker still is the voice acting, and the annoying nuance of having the disembodied voice of what I presume is the Dungeon Master narrating that which you can already plainly tell because...here's a shocker...there are 3D graphics depicting it all.[/trollbait]
It had some nice elements. For example, I liked how it actually used a DnD 3.5 system for character creation and utilized it in the game with stuff like searching for hidden passages, disabling traps, etc. But the good just doesn't outweigh all the bad for me. I'd think I'd rather play Diablo 2. In fact, I think I shall...

DnD start-up help;
when starting this will help. 1. your going to end up making and wiping your character a few times do dont poor your heart into your first and dont try to custmize a new character, just get into the game
2. start with a fighter class see the game, wipe it after the first quest and try a caster, then a healer, then some specialist. See what you like.
3. a weapon item with a ( ! ) on it means you dont know how to use it well. 4. dont waste your time smashing stuff, or blocking (shift) 5. get quest reward gear that gives single use abilities, they reset after each rest (especialy the archevist set for anyone that uses mana) 6. remember this is an older game so the graphics arent amazing... but its free 7. expect to get trapped or out numbered, so use line of sight to get away from casters
my favorite spells 1. expedious retreat. Great to move faster all the time. 2. Cold ray. usualy a 1 hit kill but you have to aim it 3. fire or acid spray, aria of effect damage (aoe)
sorcerers have a large mana pool and fewer spells, wisards can learn spells from scrolls. everyone wants tanks, healers, and rouges. in gorups
voice chatt is always on so get your mic, if you want to party with someone call me. hire a mercenary, or join a party
send Furyun in game mail box letter or List your character name

This games actually pretty fun. My computers slow, but this game runs no problem on my laptop. Hit me up if you want to do some quest. My account name is jessek46815 and my character name is just jessek. I'm not really sure how to pm and stuff so just add me yourself.

So for some reason my internet connection has been a little slower than normal the last few days. I discovered a random folder in my Application Data while digging around and noticed a process I didn't recognize. I recognized the name, once I dug deeper into information about the service, and remembered it from the DDO installation. For those who have previously installed the game, or are still currently playing it, you might be interested in removing this: forums.ddo.com/showthread.php?t=199250
