    Hooked Gamers have reviewed Dungeons & Dragons Online: Stormreach. Here's a clip:

    Before you even get to Rook's Gambit, your first challenge will be actually making a character. This is not to say that the character creation is daunting, but it can be a task when you are like me and want to play and try everything at once. The physical attributes of your character are set to race and gender. However, you do have several options on facial features and color/pigment for skin, hair, etc. Right now the selections available are limited, so the look of your character may not be very unique until later on in the game.

    Upon launch, there are five playable races with nine possible classes. Humans, Elves, Dwarves, Halflings as well as the Eberron exclusive race of the Warforged, who are a sentient ‘race’ of enhanced constructs, created during the turbulent history of Eberron. There are nine classes available for play at launch. Each is grouped into one of the four basic casts of adventures, fighters, mages, clerics and rogues. As in the traditional D&D game, there is no wrong or weak class/race combination. Any race can be of any class with its own racial abilities and every class has its own place and role it plays in the adventuring group. This concept is very important to the flow of the game as we will discuss next.
