DC Universe Online

[Blinx101]

Hey all,

After a year of not having a PS3 I got a new one yesterday and I am in the process of d/l-ing DCU Online 

However I've never played a MMO. I've looked at WOW before and It looked complicated to me lol (this is coming from a gamer who’s been playing games for 18 years lol)

So here are my questions:

1. Is the control layout more like an MMO or a RPG with 3rd person game play?

2. Are the in game items / gear level amounts and attributes simply laid out?

3. Is there any difference between a good or bad guy character?

4. What’s this PVE thing I’ve read about?

5. Is the premium option available for the UK or is it just legendary (my upgrade from free if I enjoy it)

Over all is this a hard to understand MMO like wow can be?

Also I'm in my 30's so eventually I'd like to play alongside other people in the game if I enjoy it 

If I think of anymore i'll ask

Thanks

It's the only MMO I've played so I cannot compare.

It's a bit confusing until you've played it for sometime. The Watchtower for heroes and villains equivalent are a nightmare to navigate around.

PVE/PVP - Player versus environment, Player versus player. If you choose PVE you won't get randomly attacked by the opposing side as you play. You can switch modes via Watchtower if required.

Premium - just buy one DLC and you will be premium for life.

Tip - if you join a league there will usually be someone willing to help you and answer any questions.
