I would not suggest this game to anybody under the age of 10, it definitely has some monsters that would creep out some people. Due to the dated graphics and given the amount of intense imagery kids now see on T.V, this game doesn't even compare to some children television shows playing on the cartoon channels nowadays. The things that shine in this game really are the dungeon instances and the strategy behind solving them as well as the combat itself. Personally, no other game has gotten this quite right.
And parents who get protective over the subject of 'Drinking, smoking & drugs', it is a game, as well as a fantasy with dwarves, elves, and goblins. Please people, I don't think Gimli is going to put anything other then some good old Middle Earth tobacco in his pipe, and making potions doesn't count as making 'drugs' either. There is drinking in this game, but is more for playing in character then any sort of malicious thing. I also like how the women are not negatively stereotyped as 'skimpy fantasy babes' in game.
This game does not require a monthly subscription, although it did in the past. It now encourages players to buy in game content, which includes extra character slots, multiple different races to play as, and in game items. This system is optional but once you put money in it might be hard to stop, based on the statistics for maple story.
(Yes, that is not the best example, but it has a relative concept) The game does give players that can't pay the chance to earn credits. Playing the game will earn you credits from challenges, achievements and various different methods of gaining the currency for buying in game purchased additions.
Sometimes companies make online games with titles like 'Warhammer' or 'World of Warcraft' but never actually make an online game like its predecessors. Dungeons and Dragons Online actually incorporated many, if not all, aspects from its D&D 3.5 system. I had lots of fun interacting with the many different characters like the rogue and spell casters. If you are a fan of the D&D 3.5 system you will love this game. It bring all the fun elements from the tabletop version to your computer. Like the above review I would agree that this game tends to be a time sink and would require that your teen regulate time spent on the computer with other activities. I would also like to point out that the above review also says things about lag and system crashes.
This is tied to the kind of computer you are using. Apparently the one that this particular person used must have met below minimal system requirements because I run a computer that meets the requirements and I have NEVER EVER had that kind of problem. Dungeons and Dragons Online is a great way for kids and adults alike to improve their thinking skills and strengthen their reflexes. Dungeons and Dragons Online features in-depth dungeons that offer mind-bending puzzles and devastating traps that will impress, and possible frustrate, anyone of all ages. However, the game does come with a few drawbacks, nearly all of the game's gameplay/content involves combat with another enemy creature and promotes violence. Little to no profanity is used in the game, with the exception of made-up words used by NPCS.
