Hi I've been checking out ddo and it looks quite good....but have a few questions before I try it. I'm a Brit, do I need to dl a European version? I played Aion Age of Conan on default settings.......should I download the hi res version? I've checked out quite a few YouTube vids......does you character ever sheath their weapon or are they always running around with it equipped? Will it cater for a casual gamer? Thanks in advance for any replies :) Pan

DDO is built for casual gamers these days and plays quite well that way.

Thanks in advance for any replies :) One of the cool features of DDO is the ability to do any dungeon ( quest ) at multiple difficulty levels. They are solo/normal/hard/elite/raid ( not sure on top 2, i forget ) But i will tell you that i always solo on normal never casual. I duo with someone on Normal/Hard as well. That would tell me that the casual mode is super casual so there is certainly room for that.

Yes. thank you for the correction. Elite seems pretty common, raids certainly are not. Sorry if I mislead anyone there.

Sorry for that mistake.
