Seems fun, but on my computer its a bit laggy, and no mouse movement.

However i think ill still be playing this fir quite some time. ;)

(By no mouse movement, i mean you 'can' move with the mouse, but you need to hold down your forward movement key.)

Hellarion: glad to hear. I'm probably going to pick the game back up too; I hear they improved the solo experience quite a bit since I last played it. Back then it was fairly heavily group focused, but the dungeons themselves were a lot of fun. :)

Been playing Beta for about 2+ weeks now. Pretty fun game. At first it seemed a little Guild Wars..ish but after you get around the learning curves and progress a little its all in all a pretty solid game.

Pretty decent community so far as well

Now if they would only make Asheron's Call free 2 play. Man I love that game. Best pvp system hands down.

DDO; Dungeons & Dragons Online. Come on guy, keep up.

if you are able to rename this to D&D or something it would be very helpful... i skipped over this becase i didnt even know what "DDO" means. (And i still dont, though i did skim over the article... i still get the point that D&D is not F2P ^.^)

- oh... D&DO.... the & will go a long way :)

Hum, while it's interesting move since DDO is a quality product (even if I don't play anymore), it's a bit tad to see subscribtion game go in the f2p market these day, meaning the market is somewhat screwed.

However, it'll allow alot of people to play DDO wich is a great thing :)

Custom UI Skinning Hits DDO!

It seems to me that the customization of WoW has started to influence many games. I'm sure when developers are looking to make improvements they see the 10 million subscribers of WoW and think, "They must be doing something right."

Yep. I for 1 am still playing WoW. Being able to change the appearance of the game just adds to the experience of it. Setting it up as you see fit, be it mainly for PvP or PvE is a very nice idea indeed.

Totally agree, any MMO without a programmable interface is just on the receiving end from WoW atm. The game does seem sort of interesting tho. Would love to try it if it wasnt taking time away from my life/wow.

DDO is a great group-oriented game with a small group of friends. I really enjoyed my time early on playing with friends from WoW.

Custom UI is from now on going to be big factor of every MMO. And so it should be. MMOs are long term gameplay and just small things like not liking the UI can change the experience alot. Not to mention that when ppl get bored they will have chance to make the feel of the game kinda new with new UI ;Ãž

Blizzard has done great job with WoW in terms of this. Or rather the PLAYERS have done the great job ;Ãž Blizzard just gave them the opertunity to do so.

Key feature of every skinning and UI change is that it has to be easy and fast. And TOTAL freedom! Turbine have failed in that until now. LOTRO skinning system is just crap. And even moving the frames can be complicated cause their keybinding is using keys that are in diffrent places on keyboard based on Language. That is poor thinking and says more about how naive Turbine is in their "MMO" thinking.. I've already stated my opinion about how LOTRO UI and skinning is part of the key factor I desided not to buy it and spend time lvling a char to 50.

New games like War and AOC will have to think of the UI feature if the games are gonna be succsessfull. And Devs of games like DDO and LOTRO will really have to improve their poor UI options.
