DDO Review at Gamers With Jobs

Will Torga the Tank Survive DDO?



This entertaining review, written by Julian "Rabbit" Murdoch for target="_blank" href="http://gamerswithjobs.com">Gamers With Jobs,
explores a common question: can Dungeons & Dragons Online hold a
candle to pen-and-paper D&D? Follow the author's progression from
Julesy (age 11) to Julian (age 40) and see how the game holds up:

Torga the Tank enters DDO with a tremendous head start. Because it's
D&D to the core, Torga experiences no adjustment shock--he knows
how to be here. He knows what works, what doesn't work; what has value
and what is worthless.



His world is likewise familiar and vibrant. The setting is a lovingly
crafted representation of a tiny corner of the latest (and best) entry
in the pantheon of canned D&D settings: Keith Baker's Eberron. The
sights are familiar. The politics are well understood. Torga's
ever-evolving backstory has already been written, read, edited and
owned in this world.
