D&D Online hands-on preview

GameBanshee has put together a detailed hands-on preview of Dungeons & Dragons Online: Stormreach. Comparisons are quickly made to Neverwinter Nights, not only with the game's interface, but also in the selection of feats and skills. Many DDO Beta testers have added their thoughts on gameplay in previous posts. Here's a quick summary:

Positive:

• Detailed graphics

• Unique dungeon designs

• Favors small group play
  

• Shows expected length of mission before you commit

Negative:

• No PvP

• No crafting

• Takes too long to form parties

• Real-time combat doesn't feel like D&D

Any additional comments from other Beta testers? We'll post more information on DDO as it nears the Feb. 28 release date.
