Gamer A.D.D.


Well it seemed like I cannot commit to a MMO or any other game for that matter. I enjoyed Sword of the New World, but just never seemed to get hooked. Then I was just listening to a Massively podcast and they started talking about an old MMO I use to play, Dungeons and Dragons Online: Stormreach. Their guest host for the show was Jerry (from DDOcast.com) and they had a great discussion about all the changed happening in the game. It was nice to hear it still had a solid community and lots of people interested in the changes that were about to happen, mainly the game going free to play with an in game store. So after listening to that podcast I had to download the recent DDOcasts and hear what that group of players had to say. They had some great insight into what some long time veteran players might be thinking and most if it not always positive.

After hearing them talk about the game I use to love playing I though I would download the trial and check out some of the changes. After the first couple of hours I have to say I am hooked again on this game. I purchased another box (I have forgotten my old user name and password :p) and resubscribed. I have created a Dwarf by the name of Innis Gunn, he is a Paladin that will be specializing in 2 handed weapon fighting. I have been getting help some of the great people from DDOcast.com and the DDO forums with getting back in the swing of things in the game. So a hearty thank you goes out to Phlor, Wanbz, and Khorbyn for all your help so far.


I hope going free to play will bring some more people back to this wonderful game, because once in you might just not want to leave.
