It's been a hot minute since I played, but by and large I enjoyed it.  My only gripe is that the developers do what all MMO developers seem fated to do, and that is to make rules that they think the players want without really understanding why they want it.  Off the top of my head that's packed with fuzzy memories, I remember that mechanic rogues switched from being masters with locks, traps, and secret doors to becoming crossbow DPS.

 

That said, I've compared the game to COH in that each class has (or at least had) a wealth of options to choose from.

Played it way back when it first launched as Dungeons and Dragons Online Stormreach. It was fun enough, especially if you enjoy the 3.5 edition of D&D. I remember the puzzles and mechanics of the dungeons being interesting and emphasizing exploration and investigation to find everything (though a lot of my memories are from the very early game). It seems they've gone into a F2P model with a cash shop and a number of expansions since then, so being locked out of content is something to keep in-mind - not that most live MMOs don't utilize that sort of arrangement these days.
