Dungeons & Dragons Online Becoming Free-to-play
Players will be able to download and play the game at no cost, with a new DDO Store providing revenue in the form of content and item sales. Dungeon packs, character slots, potions, character customization, and hired goons will all be available for purchase with Turbine Points. Turbine will also launch a "DDO VIP" program that will grant access to all premium content for a monthly price. Benefits include priority server access, 10 character slots, a shared bank, and a monthly pack of 500 Turbine Points to spent at the DDO Store.
Dungeons & Dragons Online was launched in February 2006. Turbine has since updated the title with eight modules.

Somehow I didn't even know this game existed. Anybody know if it's any good or not?

Daily Shacker Dungeons & Dragons 4E threads (like so: http://www.shacknews.com/laryn.x?id=20121459#itemanchor_20121459) prove you wrong.

I played it for a couple months after launch... I didn't think it was a bad game or anything, just didn't feel it was worth 15$/month to me... I probably would have played longer at a lower price point.
Of course that was quite awhile back, and I have no idea what all has been changed since. But I guess I'll find out whenever this new version launches. :P
