    GameBanshee has reviewed Turbine's Dungeons & Dragons Online: Stormreach MMORPG. Here's a snip:

    Characters are only allowed to reach level 10 in the game. Since this is intended to take a while (after playing for a month, my best character is only level 7), developer Turbine, Inc. added five “ranks” to each level. The first four times you gain a rank, you receive an action point. The fifth time, you advance your level. Action points buy small enhancements for characters, such as extra damage for certain kinds of weapons, skill boosts, and bonuses to ability scores. That means, while in most Dungeons & Dragons games characters are pretty weak at the start, in Dungeons & Dragons Online characters buff up quickly, and it doesn’t take long before they can participate in difficult quests.

    What's the point of setting up a level cap if you're going to give players a couple of times per level what they normally get once per several levels? :rolleyes:
