VGL: ToA Review

Martin Wharmby has written his review of DAoC's expansion Trials of Atlantis over on VideoGamesLife.com, giving it a score of 79%. Here is a snippet from the review, to read more click here:
    Veteran Dark Ages of Camelot players will, untreatably, lap all this up and why not? It greatly enhances the abilities of all those who complete the trials and provides swathes of even more powerful artefacts to be sought. It does, however, alienate newer players and offers very little to help their progress through the game and thus is unlikely to tempt many new subscribers to Dark Age of Camelot. A solid addition to a fine MMORPG but the technology used in Dark Age of Camelot is really starting to show its age. The interface is clunky and upon closer inspection, characters do look a bit blocky. We doubt Dark Age of Camelot will survive the coming storm but it is a long way off and this expansion will no doubt keep current players occupied for months to come.

you are right about DAOC showing its age but what about all the new graphic/character customizion that will be coming out in the upcoming expansion DAOC catacombs that should show some signs of improvement.

I completely agree with LouZ the game may be showing old tech now but with the new expansion that is supposed to be for all levels isntead of just 45-50 the gamin expierience for newcomers will be enhanced greatly
