Dungeon And Dragons Online is in some good company on a new list from MMORPG.
Coming in at #5
There are a lot of D&D-based video games out there, each bringing one or more aspects of the pen-and-paper experience to the digital table. Dungeons & Dragons Online’s strength is in its unfailing dedication to the Eberron and Forgotten Realms source material. The ruleset, from skills to feats, is super crunchy, the action-based combat is serviceable, and the party mechanics can provide for some excellent adventuring. If you haven’t played DDO, or if it’s been a long time since you have, Turbine’s game is certainly worth a try.
DDO is in very good company with the likes of Secret World and Final Fantasy XIV
I think it’s great to see DDO getting some press like this, as we an older game, but still have a lot to offer…
Nice to see some positive coverage of DDO. They could have said a lot more about the depth of the character building and the arcade quality combat, but heyho, I’ll take it.
Notice that they did not include any actual game play footage from DDO but used the intro movie instead.
