Dungeons & Dragons Online/The Lord of the Rings Online Interview

MMORPG.com has cranked out an article-style interview they did with Turbine’s Adam Mersky about the progress they made with Dungeons & Dragons Online and The Lord of the Rings Online during 2009, and what their plans are for both games going into 2010.

Dungeons & Dragons Online had a very different year in 2009. The game is one of the first MMOs to make the leap from a subscription model to a free-to-play model and is now showing signs of success in that transformation. Adam explained that with the new model it has become much easier to update the game and add content. For 2010, Turbine has a total of six updates on the books. They range in size from small dungeon packs and bug fixes to whole new systems. Adam also mentioned that Turbine is planning to add a new class and new races to the game. Craig Alexander had mentioned this back at Austin Game Convention, when he said that their goal is to make DDO as complete of a Dungeons & Dragons experience as they can for the player. The first update is scheduled for February so DDO players will have some new things to look forward to in the cold winter months. Adam did say that some of these updates will be available to paying players but also to free players as well.
