If you hate this game so much why you post here? Don't you have anything better to do? You think you posts would make DDO a better game?
Tell me, when you read a bad book or see a horrible movie or eat at a bad restaurant you behave the same way? You stand outside the restaurant and tell other people not to enter?
You don't like DDO? It is you right, you know. But life goes on.
Brihtwulf always reacts that way when he played a game he didn't like. he spammed the RF Online section before he went to D&DO section with hate topics and encouraging people to quit like there was no tommorow. he completely fails to see the that a game he doesn't like doesn't have to be a bad game. he just doesn't like it.
I played D&DO for a month before I quit. imo, its a great game, but not something to keep playing for months. it clearly has its upsides and downsides.
I posted probably a dozen posts in the RFO forums, and rightly so. I felt the game was absolutely terrible and I ALWAYS posted my reasons for believing so. You can't just come on and tell people who complain to shut up (which is always your intent). Everyone has their right to exchange both negative and positive reviews and comments on a game. If you like it, tell us why. If you don't like it, you should also tell us why. Many people come on this site for reasons why or why not to purchase a game and they are LOOKING for reviews and information. You can't just come on here and intend to silence anyone who has a negative view about the game you like.
I don't know where all of you live, but in the USA we have something here called freedom of speech. We're allowed and encouraged to speak our minds. And when someone has legitimate concerns or complaints about something, they have a right to share it with others. I don't come on here flaming and bashing people, but YOU seem to think that's ok. All I did was posted my experiences with the game and encouraged people to go look on the official game forums for more insight into the game. I don't see anything wrong with that. Just because my opinion is a negative one doesn't make me wrong.
So, before YOU come on bashing people personally, take the time to remember that these are public forums and everyone is entitled to their opinion. And based on the ratings and official forums, there are many people who share in my views.

We also have a freedom of speech in the netherlands. and you know what, we can even ask other people to stop spamming! what you do isn't sharing your thoughts with others, its forcing your oppinnion to others. You don't make one topic where you say your mind and thoughts, you go into as many topic as you can find and say nothing but bad about the product, the thing that is VERY annoying is that you act like they are all facts, while they are nothing but your own experience and oppinnion. I clearly remember your RF Online campaing, you even went as far that you almost ordered people not to buy the game, you made loads of attemts to bring the score of RF Online down,and in every topic you had to bash RF Online.you named people who (oh god forbid) said anything good about the game a "pathetic fanboi" there is a huge diffrence between giving a voice to your oppinion and forcing your opinon upon others.
about you saying you don't flame and bash people, you might want to take a good look at your posts in the RF Online section.

Do you tell your friend's to watch out for that pile of dog crap? Do you tell your friends not to go see that horrible movie? Thank god for people that look out for their fellow games is what I say.
I always appreciate the dogpile warning, but hey, some of my friends have told me about how horrible some movie was, then I watched it myself, and guess what, I really liked it. Peoples opinions are different, and if one person doesn't like something, it doesn't mean that everyone doesn't like it. The world would be a very boring place (this forum too) if everyone had the same tastes.
Point is, you can believe a "friend" that you only know from an online forum, or you can make your own mind up. I for one don't like being told what to like and what not by people I barely know, and who could not have my best interests in mind... Would you jump off a bridge if someone told you it would be really cool? Didn't think so...
Just some food for thoughts, I just stopped playing for my 6 hour session today, and damn did I have a good time.
Tastes are different, so are opinions, so I'm not gonna listen to some dude on a message board on what game I want to try and which not, I'm not that gullible.
Originally posted by brihtwulf More reasons why DDO ISN'T a good game: 1. People keep quitting, making it harder to find a group within 30 minutes+. 2. The Dragon Vault is a complete disaster. 3. Casual players can reach level 10 within 6 weeks. 4. NO endgame content whatsoever. 5. Static dungeons, so everything is the exact same each time. 6. Everyone only wants to grind the largest dungeons for the most xp. 7. Warforged are usless and a detrement to the game. 8. Not my opinion, but many people think the combat is too arcade-style. I'm sure there are more points about why DDO is NOT a good game, so just go read the official forums for more information...
^ =
1. last night was the last time I logged in and it took me upwards of....3 minutes to get into a group!!
2. Terrible players have terrible times completing quests. Purge the Heritic = Elite?
3. Very true, casual players can reach lvl 10 in about 6-8 weeks and gain access to more difficult quests!
4. This is not an END-GAME type of game. WoW mentality =
5. Dungeons are _nearly_ static. The dynamics consist of random named bosses which generate chests when defeated. Other then that, all the trap, turns and monster spawn points are the same evey time you re-enter a dungeon.
6. Everyone does _not_ want to only repeat the highest exp dungeon. My favorite to repeat is "Purge the Heretic" which gives something like 0-500 exp on elite!! Can you beat it??
7. Warforged ROCK!!! I love having them in my group and have even put out requests for them. One is enough though.
8. Uh oh. The kid doesn't have any of his own opionons...
