The game is fun. Very EQish in the good aspect but I see a potential problem down the road. Depending on how many initial subscribers hit the game at release, the game won't support it. I am not referring to the server load. I have no idea if their servers are adaquate to the task. What I am referri |

WHY is it, that this game seems to have left the MID levels out in the cold? Either you have to be BELOW 35 or ABOVE 50 to get any of the new GOOD stuff. What happened to the rest of us, still trying to struggle through those levels inbetween? I have seen nothing new for us, therefore find the game |

Why would such a low level gem like a bloodstone confer such power on an eye patch, should be something like an emerald or velium or something that costs more then a couple gp |

I think DAoC will be great EQ pisses me off most of the time....Verrant pisses me off. The problem with Verrant is they had a minopoly over Mid-evil RPG's and so therefore they didnt listen to "us" and didnt change anything, they kept it how they liked it. This i belive takes some of the fun out of |

Nope, no ultravision to make nighttime pleasantly bright. I'm kind of hoping that they put in a way to purchase better torches. Nighttime in Dark Age is nasty in some areas...but I guess it's supposed to be. heh. |

I got these at level 20! I asked a group of 25 to 30's who were camping outside if I could loot the scrolls. I lent a hand as I could, and eventually they invited me into the group.
Two hours later I had all four scrolls, 20 or 30 plat in loot, 2 yellows of exp, and then a big long runabout for t |

I played EQ from start and loved it until the players ruined it, and Verant's lack of communication or caring allowed them to do so, if not put salt on the wound. I wanted to know if anyone has experienced the split in classes that EQ had. I am not in beta yet, so would like a response.

Honestly, the statement "This isn't EQ after all!" has to be one of the most common things I've ever read about DAoC, so it is fairly disheartening to see you stand by a review which claims things totally contrary to the truth. DAoC is nothing like EQ. Yes, they're both 3D, they both include other p |

The similarities between the games really are the same similarities that are between just about any online rpg, be it text or graphical, it's a successful formula that's worked for over a decade, why change it now.
As for DaoC killing EQ, nothing will kill EQ, take its subscriber base maybe, but |
