I can't wait for strongholds to start! It's been so awesome to see Cryptic release all these expansions for Neverwinter! I can't wait to see the Stronghold Siege on Xbox! Comment below and share your enthusiasm!
I'm ambivalent about it. Any new content is always welcome but I'm concerned about it creating an even greater divide between the organised, well financed players/guilds and everyone else (the 90%+).
A noticeable increase in inequality would turn off many casuals meaning a reduction in general player base. This would in turn negatively affect the BiS players by reducing a cash stream for their AH sales & new recruits pool.
I would be very happy to see some kind of tiering structure in Strongholds that prevents nub guilds coming up against the likes of Houdini and Asylum who quite simply would roll over them like a 40 ton truck.
It's not that hard to protect the interests & enjoyment for players of all levels, it just needs to be thought through and treated as a priority concern.

At first, I wasn't really looking forward to it as my guild consists of very few active people... but having spoken with some other friends, they joined the guild and convinced me that it isn't all bad. After all, there's loads of PvE content, despite PvP, probably being the best way to earn necessary items for the stronghold and currency for new armour.
I'm still a little "eh" about it, but Mod 8, Underdark, is certainly something I'm looking forward to.
Meh.. But the next one looks good. I haven't seen much about the pve. No interest in pvp. Haven't joined a guild mainly due to the communication system on Xbox. NW was my first mmo since EQ, that's pre-wow EQ, meaning 72 - 54 man raids, depending on the expansion. To be honest, I really miss those raids. That is endgame, not pvp. ...at least the mounts look cool.
This has got to be a sarcastic post right? I mean, there are SO many issues with the game. Many of which came with the release of MOD6, some that are still lingering from MOD5. But you actually think it is a good idea for us to get another MOD? This will just add even more issues, and make this game even more unplayable.
So, I sure hope this was a sarcastic post. If not, kudos to you for having hope in a broken game. Kudos to you.
I'm looking forward to it, just about done with boons and need different dallies. I'm mainly pve and stronghold is mostly pve so it is welcomed. An increase in number of seal drops would be good to if they don't remove it from patch.
There are some issues with the game that have been noticed by the developers, but they are working on fixing them. Lol fixing code isn't a one day thing. If fixing code was that easy they would be coming out with expansions every 2 or 3 weeks. I haven't been having to much trouble with dungeons, but I have an awesome guild to back me up. I think its safe to say Neverwinter isn't meant to be played by yourself. I mean hell, you're queing up for dungeons and pvp on a constant basis. I think Neverwinter is encouraging people to find groups to play with, make friends, and join guilds, things of that sort . If you'd like to join an awesome guild.

Legacy is looking fw to SH, even though we're a smaller guild. Got a group of cool people who have been together since April, now with content to work through and to build together. Granted, the build will be long and grindy (like everything else is in this game), but we'll get there without sacrificing our integrity or enjoyment of the game
