Anybody playing D&D online?
If so, what's your opinion? I'm thinking about it, but I may just get back into IW's Undermountain.

Terrible, do not enter. There's no good D&D MMO yet. Stick with NWN's.

Re: Anybody playing D&D online?
It's actually pretty good once you get used to it's unique style, especially with all the updates. The level cap has been raised, servers have been merged, you can now play monks, there are way more quests and diversity etc.
The thing is that this game is NOT made for solo play. It is faithful to it's source material in that you need to get a group of friends to adventure with. I wouldn't play this game without a group of real life friends willing to have weekly sessions. You'd have a blast then. But even with me playing a cleric and my brother playing a tank we'd get problems rounding up a pickup group for anything but the most farmed adventures.

Re: Anybody playing D&D online?
Yeah, I tried this game for like a week and didn't like it, but it was clear that a group is absolutely necessary.
