DDO Online is now free to play

1Kurgan1 · Jun 18, 2009

As title states the game has now gone free to play and you can pay for certain things, no main stream MMO has ever gone this route, I think I might give it a shot.

Sweet, I love DDO

1Kurgan1 · Jun 18, 2009

I only looked at it, I wasnt sure it was an MMO or more like a D2 type of game.

ShadowFold · Jun 18, 2009

It's got action elements to it. I only got it because I play the table top D&D and it's fairly faithful. It's Forgotten Realms iirc.

KainXS · Jun 18, 2009

is it good, I never played it

ShadowFold · Jun 18, 2009

I'd give a 9/10

I got it at launch and there weren't many players! I loved it because it played like a hack 'n slash game, but it had all the D&D moves and spells which was really cool.

olithereal · Jun 18, 2009

Yeah I played the demo and it's quite really good actually. Once it go F2P I'll probably go ahead and buy it. I just don't like the idea of the item shop, but there's no PvP in DDO so I don't really care.

whats DDO? never heard of it

ShadowFold · Jun 18, 2009

There's a link in the first post ya know.. It's Dungeons & Dragons Online, an MMO.

1Kurgan1 · Jun 18, 2009

I wonder when it will be out of the beta stages, I signed up, hopefully they get back soon, might use this to fill my time till SW:TOR.

ShiBDiB · Jun 18, 2009

im confused.. is it free or did i just sign up for a beta

MilkyWay · Jun 19, 2009

you have to buy the game but there is no subscription?
if its like that i might give it a go see if i like it or not

1Kurgan1 · Jun 19, 2009

I'm not sure if you can get the free sub quiet yet, and I'm not sure if you have to buy it. I think thy are testing free subs with that beta, then prob more info will be out.

Castiel · Jun 19, 2009

I have been looking around the site to see if i can play and nothing yet. My GF is telling me no because she doesn't want me to get addicted. lol

1Kurgan1 · Jun 20, 2009

lol, you played mmo's before then I assume?

lol yeah.

1Kurgan1 · Jun 20, 2009

What did you play before?

Castiel · Jun 20, 2009

Mainly Guild Wars. But she is under the impression that if I get into DDO or WoW that I would get addicted and more time will go to the games than her.

1Kurgan1 · Jun 21, 2009

My gf plays WoW so works nice, granted I don't really play anymore, was/is a great game, but 4.5 years is enough. But before she started playing, I knew how you felt.

jagass · Jun 21, 2009

It's really nice...

BobBarr · Jun 22, 2009
