Weighing up DAoC without Catacombs, against today's competition, I'd have to say that there's little to recommend it. That's to be expected though as the original is four years old, but throw Catacombs into the mix though and you've got some serious thinking to do. MMPORPGs demand a investment of time that few of us could devote to more than one game of this type. Catacombs puts DOaC on a par with WoW and Everquest and opens up the arena again. In the end it comes down to what you prefer to play. Everquest's heavily fantasy rich game, WoW's Warcraft universe or DAoC's fantasy/medieval mix. For what it's worth, I'd go for DAoC over Everquest, but I'm torn between this and WoW. DAoC gives a more traditional fantasy experience, so for the newcomer trying out a MMPORPG for the first time, DAoC might be the way to go as there's more of the traditional fantasy fare in here than WoW.
