Dungeons & Dragons Online Goes Free-To-Play

Posted by Soulskill on Tuesday June 9, 2009 @11:06PM from the level-up-for-3d20-cents dept.

Dungeons & Dragons Online developer Turbine has announced that they'll be launching a new version of the game, called Eberron Unlimited, which makes it free to play, with the option of using micro-transactions to buy certain items and customize characters. Players will also be able to earn points through normal play that they can spend in the DDO Store. There's an additional option to pay a normal subscription fee for priority access to servers, a monthly allotment of points for the store, and extra character slots. Further details and a sign-up for the beta are available at the game's website.

I know at least 400 VN board members that pleaded with Mythic for a 21+ and over server for DAOC. We were so damn sick of the 10 year olds playing...
The problem is that half the "10 year olds" are actually 30 and just act 10. Age restricted servers don't block stupid.
