Dungeons And Dragons Online: TenTonHammer DDO Preview
|
The folks over at TenTonHammer have another look at Dungeons & Dragons Online: Stormreach available for mass consumption:
What made me a believer in this title was the combat. First, there is no experience for killing monsters. Experience is gained by completing the quests or missions. Being a smart player will help you more than being a "grab and dash" player. Your mana and health pools don't regenerate. Managing your power and resources is of utmost importance. Using your high cost spells on those early monsters might look cool, but you won't have anything left in the tank for the bosses at the end of the mission.
The article takes a nice approach to looking at DDO, as the reviewer isn't really a D&D fan. Check it out here.
