The two main things that were restricted were a bunch of the dungeon/mini-raid/raid content (though there was always SOME available at any given level range), and the more unusual class/racial setups. (Drow, monks, etc.) Also, if you played regularly and leveled a class up, you earned the same currency that bought you access to closed content just by playing, and could buy a few of the upgrades without having to spend $$$.
DDO had its own issues, including a near-complete lack of soloability, but it definitely did the F2P/Micropayments model VERY well.

Had some leftover SoE points or whatnot and bought a +20% run speed bag and unlocked my class/race combo so I can level past 20. The world is insanely huge. So many places to go at almost every level. Had some 55 run me through the hunters league quest line and that gear is ridiculous compared to what I have now.Think I'm gonna sub for a month and see. So far it's been quite enjoyable even playing just a few hours here and there.

I'm a part timer but put me on your friends list. I assume you're on Telon? I'm a lvl 18 gnome disciple. Klauze
