- This is a very fun casual group-oriented game. If you're into huge persistent immersive worlds then this isn't the game for you. On the other hand if you're looking for some casual quality time with your RL friends and guildies until the next Big Thing arrives then you wont find anything better than this. Character creation and advancement is the most complex and varied I've seen so far in an MMO and the combat system is and action-RPer's dream. Two thumbs up for this game in it's niche - casual group action RPG.

- Well, the game is TOO well-polished, and by well-polished I mean very prone to nerfs by the gamemakers. Every single mod, they rebalance the mechanics and ruin a lot of peoples characters. I guess they want you to reroll every few months.

- Great game, i had a very negative idea about DDO, but since the last reviews i grew interested in this game so i decided to download the trial, i already bought an account. Great graphics, good story and sound, definately recommended.

- I just came back and I found it polished and very very enjoyable, expecially with a group of friends.

- What can I say about this game. It has improved so much over the 2 years its been out. Getting rid of XP debt was a smart and fun move makeing the game less stressful and fun. Its much easyer to solo things and gain lvls with no issue. I have also had more chances to RP then any other game ever.

- Waited 2 years to try this game out. I watched the release and development with great intent and knew I would come back to it when the game was more polished. I am an EVE and EQ2 Player. I can say in all honesty that DDO is polished and enjoyable. It is finding its niche within the MMORPG gaming world. 1. It is as true to PnP DnD as I have ever seen and I am thankful for that. Its not perfect but it gets it right. 2. The quest system is amazing. Now that modules and content have been added over the past two years, I have yet to repeat to many quests. 3. The class system, true to PnP, leaves room for much customization and variety. By getting action points between levels allows for the classes to be custom and directed like no other game I have seen yet (with the exception of EVE but that is very different). 4. The Community is great. When I have asked questions in general chat, almost every time I get a private tell response with even more info. 5. The combat system makes sense!! Its different than any other fantasy mmorpg I have played. Its not clicking on a skill and waiting for it to recharge. It has the workings of an action-diablo style system that is still and RPG and better, based on DnD rule-set. This was not an easy task for Turbine to pull off and I think they have done it with flying colors. 6. Knowing Turbines reputation, they will keep adding content and polishing the game. My guess is the user base for this game will start to grow. Summation – this is not EQ2 or WoW. The dynamics are logical, familiar (if you’re a pnp fan) and fun. Grouping is easy and plentiful. The quests are challenging combat and p[problem-solving puzzles. If you had any doubts before you can get past them now. They finally made a Game of it.

- Just started to play again (haven't since beta). Having a great time. Can't believe the quality of the community. It's been perfect so far.

- Love exploring these vast and interactive dungeons. Still getting to grips with the game, but it's definately a gem amongst MMORPG's.

- Great community, most are willing to help when needed. Devs are active with subscribers. Updates/Mods seem to actually fix issues and show devs pay attention to customers. You only need 12 to raid end game. Integrated Voice is packaged. Interactive Dungeons are great break from the norm. Overall this is a great game that seems like it is on the right track.

- Somewhat friendly community quite good for party's in this game the graphics are slightly outdated compared to some other games made at the same year as this quite good fun if you like being able to jump cant say anything about sound i don't listen to any game sound.
