"You sure there won't be a pay to play model for NWN 2? How sure?"
On the contrary, I'm sure there will be some, eventually. Just like Bioware did. Only difference is with NWN2 from Oblivion is that with Oblivion you pay $3 for a few extra graphics and a half hours worth of exploratory fun or an hour long quest. With NWN1/2 you get 6+ hours of new content, new models, textures, tilesets, characters and classic RPG fun. It's worth a whole hell of a lot more.
On top of that you'll have thousands of FREE modules to play and, just like Bioware before them, Obsidian is sure to release a good ammount of FREE content as well. I mean hell, it's been 5 years and just a few months ago a NWN patch came out having a tun of FREE new content. 
As to D&DO Expansion. Just like every other part of the game, this one is done half-assed. The drow for example, have incorrect race modifiers and NO LEVEL MOD! I swear the only thing D&D about D&DO is the name!
Oh and yes, NWN2 will be kicking poor D&DO's ass around for years to come. You wait and watch.

It's a shame people are saying AA will die first. The game has a lot of promise and can be quite fun ... for a while anyway.
I don't think either will die. I mean look at Horizons ... it's still going. If anything should die, it's it (and Dark and Light).

Semantics |
|

I think people were more blown away by the large, interesting world of Morrowind, not by the free updates. I personally never even bothered downloading them.
I'm not sure what you mean by a "pay to play" model. All commercial games require you to pay in order to play them. An ongoing charge, like DDO, seems very unlikely. Even Oblivion, which you are obliquely referring to, does not go down this road.

The real online D&D game for people that want to simulate table-top is Neverwinter Nights 2.
Remember when Morrowind came out and we were blown away by the free updates? Or, how can you predict what an unreleased game will be like? You sure there won't be a pay to play model for NWN 2? How sure?

DDO is just a cheap attempt to cash in on the MMO system, while using the D&D brand name.
The real online D&D game for people that want to simulate table-top is Neverwinter Nights 2.
Even Neverwinter NIghts 1 is a better D&D experience than DDO

Maybe they could do a server "mashup" of both games.

The Truth |
|
|
It sounds to me like they are grasping at straws here. A press release about what is in essence what we in the technical field call a 'patch'.
Seriously announcing that your are patching the game witha press release is pretty weak.
Their are plenty of other MMO's that quietly release content and patch updates with only the user base knowing about them.
My prediction is Auto Assault and then this.

Auto Assault by a long shot. DDO isn't blowing doors off the genre, but it's got a pretty decent userbase.
And for what it's worth, Auto Assault isn't failing because it's niche. It's failing because it's crap.

So who croaks first? DDO or Auto Assault?
I'm gonna guess Auto Assault.
Not that I'm any fan of DDO, but Auto Aussault appears to be more "niche" than DDO.

I say Auto Assault.
I really wanted DDO to succeed I mean this is what almost all MMO are based on in some ways.

sounds to me like most of this stuff should have already been in the game. atleast the in-game mail system, an adventurer’s compendium to track completed quests, a “favor” system to track a player’s standing in the world part. |
