This does not make sense in any possible way.

Neverwinter used to be an online game on AOL, back when people had phone modems that made funny noises and the interweb was just a noob.

AOL had an hourly fee.. I think it was like $6 an hour. When Neverwinter came out on there, I played till my card got maxed, then had to get mom to pay it off for me and made up some dumb lie about needing something for college.

You are aware that apart from setting these games have absolutely no relation right? The way you said it was like it was the same game.

Well I have never seen a game with such a horrible download speed.... it's downloading at a breakneck speed of .01 KB/s. feth this game

Yeah well, good luck patching or logging in. Still can't even load the game, it just hangs whenever I try to load it.

But good to hear at least some people are enjoying it. I'd love to be able to actually play it, but between the patcher lagging out, and once I actually patched it the game hangs at the loading screen. Love me some DnD, but yeah, patience isn't infinite for MMOs.

Yeah, had no issues whatsover. Downloaded and patched it in about 20 mins. More likely it's an issue on your side.

No, Monks in D&D are the martial arty type of monks.

Also, I want to see Barbarian.

Well, after playing this for a bit.. I've come to a conclusion.

Dragon's Prophet is way better and that's still in early Beta.

Combat is more fluid and seems to have more depth.

Uses a combo system where your skills can completely change based on the sequence of use.

It also has a pokemon-ish element to it. The world is full of dragons, right now I think there's about 300 different ones. These can all be tamed. Once tamed they function somewhat like a WoW hunter pet, but they are also your mount. You can train your dragons, you can have your dragons train each other to get different skill sets, that kind of stuff.

There are also sky island instances where you can build a house(in a modular fashion). Each sky island is governed from a castle, whoever owns the castle can set taxes for the entire island and lots of other fun stuff to either be a benevolent king or horrible tyrant . Guild PVP involves sieging and taking these castles.
