You know that intro on a bunch of these vids and on the subscriber vid for those that got see it where Alex does his overly excited clapping? That was what I did when Fernando Paiz said "driders."

Wow, it sure took them a while to make the Underdark. That seems like something that should've come out a long time ago for DDO.

The main dude there's expression was very unsettling. Sort of like just offscreen there was a gun to his head.

Wait, Dungeon's and Dragon's Online is still around?

DDO is actually still alive and well. They released an HD version of the game that is pretty good looking and since they went semi-F2P people are all up on that.

Does this guy look like Green Bay Packer's quarterback Aaron Rodgers to anybody else?

Was planning on going back into DDO (saw briefly around launch) but Diablo got in the way. Hopefully this F2P version will, like other MMOs, show up on steam but either way if time permits I'll definitely look more into it as always liked the D&D games.

Not going to lie, I'm a little disappointed. Hey, check out all the stuff we're doing with this new Eberron setting! Warforged! Dragonshards! The Great Houses!

O...oh. You want Forgotten Realms. And Elminster again. And you don't want this cool new spin on the drow, you just want to same old one you've seen before. Uh, sure ... I guess we can do that.

I came here to say basically this.

I really liked Turbine for making Asherons Call 2 but from that point onwards it has been a downward spiral -although I respect them for the painstaking detail in LotRo.

I'm all for it.

EDIT: Not really. I'm actually indifferent. Just saw that there were no comments and couldn't resist lunging. Haha... hum.

Does anyone play DDO anymore around here? It's been awhile.
