I believe your title need to be re phrased to "my negative criticism need to stay FAR away from this game!" Its genre on its own and it out ot he WoW box format. GW is another genre although it gets less crticism because its free, but GW has its up and down also. DDO is for the enjoyement of a good storyline for a quick quest. The instances are needed because the isn't an endless line of respawn. Think of how annoying it is in wow when you are just trying to catch up a few hit point or mana point and a creature just respawns behind you. You then have to kill it and go back to resting etc. In ddo you have a reverse of the system you mana and hp don't regen so netheir do the monster. (Make sense)
DDO's strong point : Nice graphics, Amazing combat, Amazing customization of character (in the build sense not so much appearance). Great (FREE) updates on a regular basis! an ever-evolving game with the times. ( hence graphics have improved since the begining, DX10 enabled in progress), open spaces within instance, more and more solo content, light pvp, achievement rewards, and now the begining of crafting. Not to forget one of the first game to have voice chat.
Keep in consideration that I have tried many mmo 20+ and not all appeal to me just like this might not appeal to you. ALthough let other people decide if this is a good game. A 10 day free trial is all you need to get a feel of the game.

And as I said on the official forums, it's the perfect time for veterans to try out Permadeath with the new character slot
Nah I don't consider this a shameless self promotion! Think of it the forum here is Ridiculously small here and only the D&D fans read it. If I wanted to promote the game I would post this right in the WoW forums like a lost moron. ( But I did think of it
) I posted here for people who have played and are thinking of coming back this is a good time. That all. Most who already play only post on the Turbine' forums anyway.
Cheers see you in game!

If your interested in playing DDO; curiouse, its on your to do list or even while you wait for your latest WoW expansion try it this weekened. I've tried the mod 8 and its really cool.
"Scheduled Server Downtime: 6:00 AM - 1:00 PM Eastern (-4 GMT) Wednesday, October 29th
The DDO Game Servers will be brought down on Wednesday, October 29th from 6:00 AM - 1:00 PM Eastern (-4 GMT) to launch the latest free content update, Module 8: Prisoners of Prophecy. Risia will remain up and available during the downtime. Thanks for your patience, and we'll see you back in the game soon!"
Its simple, I've played lots of mmo and for me this is the best combat system. (better than age of Conan which also tried something diff) What people don't like is that there isn't any really open PVP. If you can live in a pure PVE world with a little more thinking before you rush into combat than you'll love this. D&D has always been about character builds with endless possiblities and they did just that!
Wow that is a nice Screenshot I really didn't expect that much of a diff. ( and thanks for the pics )
As for the Mod 8 its going to have the prep screen by this evening and the mod 8 will be anywhere from here to thursday. Happy Trick or Gaming ![]()
