Unlimited Candor: Turbine Addresses Tough DDO Unlimited Questions

Dungeons & Dragons Online Eberron Unlimited will usher in a new era of free-to-play DDO along with content and items bought in the Turbine store, but for the present DDO Unlimited has simply ushered in a lot of cautious enthusiasm, righteous indignation, and a whole host of tough questions.

Ten Ton Hammer posed a number of these questions to DDO Executive Producer Fernando Paiz, Senior Producer Kate Paiz, and Turbine PR Director Adam Mersky about the edgier aspects of the upcoming re-release and received some candid answers in return:

From the article:

Exec. Producer Fernando Paiz: "What we're trying to do is give players options as to what kind of experience they want to get. I think on elite, it's appropriate for something to be really hard - not to drive you to the store necessarily, but to challenge the party. I think you might see us adding in new difficulty levels or something like that in the future which might be very difficult but there is always a player choice: you want to go for that thing and do you want to try and use store items to attack that thing, or not?"

Let's hear your blue sky, anything goes ideas for a next gen MMOG to end all MMOGs.
