2 of our guildies quit ddo for a long time now to play it.. so, it must be ok?

Cant compare to ddo.
Bns is heavily ping/skill reliant.
Particulary in challenge dungeons tower of infinity and pvp 1 and 3s.

Outside of pvp the bg side of the game and pve is pretty much pick the op class and whale it with p2w gear.
I enjoy it troughly and am competetive in endgame.
Issue is you have less content then in ddo but more things to do.
Alas, alts are very viable in bns.

Thanks for the comments. I tried it and like Strake said, the beginning turned me off so much I uninstalled, hahaha.

Apparently ESO is better now, so going to try that in a bit.

hahaha, thanks. I may try that then.

I like my characters on ESO, they're nice to look at, but that's about it. I install, log in for 5 min, then uninstall every year or so.

It came out a few years ago - 2014? 2015?  I can't quite recall. The youtube reviewers all say it's much better now. And they limited pvp to 2 areas I think. You actually would have to go to there to join pvp on purpose. So just questing around, you'd be fine.

I'll probably check it out again in a bit. It's much prettier than DDO and a much larger player base, but their grouping system sucks.

There were a few good quests, but most of them are the boring, generic MMO versions.

The ones I liked involved moral decisions with no easy answers. I think I ended up tearing a family apart because their son was a druggie. One of the options was kill him, the other was put him jail. Or let others kill him too I think. There was another that involved some kind of magical humanoid creature that was insane you had to put down. And the storyline itself was ok. The voice acting was great, but kinda slow.

Not toooooo many "go get 5 of these and 5 of those other things, thanks" but too many, lol

it's micro-transaction based. they sell character power in the store. but, is f2p, the early leveling play experience is well done. fast leveling, tutorials on skills and  their applications, movement is easy. you never need to staple a mouse to your hand to move. there isnt any tab targeting, and the abilities/skills are kind of laid out for you. devs designed it that way. but movement is better than eso and the combat is too.
