I agree that the camera angles are a pain in the ass, but overall I think it's great It's not the game itself that is so amazing as much as the implementation of the concept. Have you actually played with the DM client? Thats where the true power lies, the single player game (which I actually like) is just a tiny tip of the iceberg, the real focus of it is the ability to run a 'REAL' D&D game from a computer. The DM has the ability to quickly create modules (its got a great toolkit), and further, he has the ability to interactively run the game, adding dynamic content and making up 'as he goes along' , just like a real D&D game.
The power comes in the ability to take it and make it about anything you want. Is it an EQ killer? Absolutely if you ask me, because the power lies in the hands of the indivudual server owners, not in a 3rd party company. Plus, theres no monthy fee, and characters can be carried onwards into other campaigns/modules.
You can only compare the interface to DS or D2 (both great games on their own)
