I own this little MMO gaming blog but I hardly ever write on it any more. I'm more of a bloglord or something. Thankfully I have several minions to keep things rolling along.

Aaaand it’s down.
Demand killed the (web) servers, they’re not responding or giving error messages more often than not.
Congrats, Turbine! :)
I’ve tried DDO for the first time in the DDOU beta, and I’m liking it a lot. Would not have paid for a subscription back when it was new, but I’m really happy with the F2P concept they have.

Looking forward to trying this one out, if my current feeble PC can handle it.

It’s several years old, your machine should be able to handle at the very least the low-res texture version. There are two downloads of the client, hi-res at about 9 GB and lo-res at about 4.

I should have downloaded the client a few days ago, i’m sure it will be swamped.
I’ll just play me some wizard 101 while I wait.

Got in the head start for beta/VIP last week. Can’t see paying $15/month for it myself, but I like it enough that I might buy some Adv-packs and other goodies here and there. It’s an amusing little game, nice place to mess around if you’re sick of your main game or are ‘in between’ MMO homes.
If you can run LOTRO on low settings, you should be okay at DDO, maybe some lag but it oughta be playable.

Correction: Not free to the Europeans yet, well, unless they use the American client.

I really like the game, but I’m having real difficulty finding groups to run paid-for adventure packs. Even the waterworks is hard to find people for.

Keep in mind that this is the release of a new module for the VIPs. We have had to wait 10 months for an update so most of us are playing our end game characters. Usually, it’s very easy to find players to run most of the content that they put for sale as most of them are the most popular ones.

Blarg. Got the client a week ago and I’m all patched up. Now I wish I could find out how to actually get the goddamn code for the game to get DDO on my already existing Turbine account. :P
One might assume, but no, you don’t. :P When the forums eventually came back online, it was revealed that folks with existing Turbine accounts must contact customer service directly to get game keys.
Man, I love Turb more than most but they are just dumb as hell as a business sometimes. >:[

Oh welllllll. I’ll get there when I get there. :p
I assume you get a key from here: https://trial.turbine.com/ddo.php
