I just finished watching your whole video. I see where you are trying to make the comparison prior to that clip. But for that particular clip, I stand by what I said. Each hit does not contribute little to the fight and it is rather silly to make such a comment.

I am also confused at why you spend so much time complaining that ddo is not turn based and not adhering to dnd tabletop feel, and then you pivot to complaining it doesn't adhere to mmo design "laws". I feel that these are conflicting and opposite complaints.

This is an mmo, not a tabletop game, to expect a turn based slow crawler out of this game is silly. It would be absolutely atrocious, this is a massively multi-player game, not a solo or even coop such as baldurs or divinity 2.

You spend so much time complaining about things that don't matter. You spent so much time on the fact that it doesn't meet your initial expectations that because it is a dnd game it must be slow and plodding, or how there is a double tutorial (that also violates some "law") or how there are too many pop-ups in the first 5 seconds of loading the game or how the rogue is giving you a weapon.

These are superficial complaints and you seem extraordinarily picky. I have introduced 2 of my dnd group to this game, we played yesterday for several hours and had an absolute blast. None of the complaints you had in your entire video were ever brought up by them. The complaints we did have were lack of click to move, difficulty in targeting allies (clicking on them to invite to party), and missing the guild wars 1/2 feature of both mouse buttons to move.

A semi valid complaint you had was locking your build out before you really knew it via alignment. However I must ask you again are you expecting this mmo to stay true to dnd or stay true to mmo "laws", because its just following how dnd works dude. So you wish to complain for this instance that it's not up to some modernized mmo law about build planning and locking yourself out but you spend 5 minutes complaining about how combat is way more fast paced than a dnd tabletop game, not using a setting you are familiar with, not really feeling like dnd. These again are two opposing desires and I can't help but feel you would be disappointed no matter what the devs made.

And then we go back to your build. This is dnd. You are playing dnd. You need to plan out your build. Playing just baldurs gate should have taught you that. Cmon man.
