Even when trying out new games, I can't seem to be able to play everyday - which is what is happening with the latest MMO I'm getting my hands on; Dungeons & Dragons Online, Eberron Unlimited.
At character level 10, you can be a Bard(10) or a Bard(5) Fighter(5) or even a Bard(4) Fighter(3) Rogue(3)
Playing as one of the many class/race combinations (I'm a halfling bard, was an elf before though), DDO takes you to the mythical lands of Eberron, beginning in Korthos and working your way up and out into areas such as Stormreach as your level and questline progresses. It is F2P on a basic level, but there are unlockable contents via the DDO game store if you wish to play the game fully (let's face it, no good MMOs are totally free).
Element enchanted weapons grants extra damage on strike on top of the physical damage done.
I would say DDO would rival such games like WoW, EverQuest & Dark Ages of Camelot in terms of its gameplay. Its a simple game from a first impression but late on it gets pretty interesting and more complex as it involves cooperation and skill from different players playing different classes.
You can go solo...
One thing that I like about DDO (and similar games such as Neverwinter) is the ability to multiclass. For example, when playing a bard (like I am), you can go straight out as a class perfecting the art of performing songs and providing full support to the team, or you can use some levels to go into the fighter class to be able to handle damage from multiple mobs better or going into the rogue class to improve certain utility techniques such as disarming traps, hide/sneak and so on.
... or get a party going and take on quests & monsters on a harder level of difficulty.
Hooray for online D&D.
Cheers.
