More on Ten Ton Hammer

Dungeons & Dragons Online: Eberron Unlimited (commonly abbreviated DDO) is an MMORPG based on the Dungeons & Dragons 3.5 Edition roleplaying game. Developed by Turbine, DDO allows players to adventure in the Eberron Campaign Setting, a supplemental rulebook (penned by Keith Baker) to the standard Dungeons & Dragons game. Players choose from a variety of races and classes, eventually determining a selection that seems most appropriate for their play styles.

As an MMORPG, DDO actually steps outside of the box in many ways, taking some of the common mechanics of MMORPGs and supplementing them with rules taken from the D&D roleplaying game. Instead of turn-based action, DDO features real-time combat and integrated (and necessary) voice chat. Instead of being a "sit behind your computer and hit a button every now and then", Turbine wanted DDO to really stand out as a game that brings players together and emulates the true nature of D&D.

However, DDO got off to a rocky start and several server mergers have subsequently followed, albeit for the betterment of the community. DDO converted to a free-to-play model and has experienced a resurgence of interest with the gaming community. The new service offers an item shop that players can purchase items and downloadable content through as well as a premium membership, which provides the players with extra perks and a given amount of credits each month that can be used in the DDO store.

  • Ten Ton Hammer's Ethec talks with DDO's Erik Boyer and Iain Currie at PAX East 2011

    Excluding Duke Nukem Forever (which counts only in concept), we only found one five+ year-old game on the show floor at PAX East 2011. That game was Dungeons and Dragons Online, and Producer Erik Boyer and Design Director Iain Currie were on-hand to show us how Turbine continues to keep this hybrid free-to-play success story fresh.

    One feature that DDO historically lacked is a full-fledged crafting system - but no more! Iain describes how crafting works, why you'll need to play the game to be a successful crafter, and how Turbine plans to phase in the changes to minimize player economy upheaval. Next, Erik takes us deep into the fourth and final part of Update 9. It's a mad journey through the sensibilities of a fleshcrafting mindflayer "artist", complete with a catwalk and "Spring Fashions" plus what might be DDO's most intense boss fight yet, so have a look at this DDO Update 9 / Crafting Improvements video from PAX East 2011!
