There is one growing untapped pool of possible new players for the game.
It would require some R&D but not as bad as installing a new engine.
The GROWING VR player base (Quest 2, Quest 3)
The graphics in DDO are simple enough for either headset to digest.
Hand tracking has significantly improved.
SS would need to create a Specific mod for those players.
and The UI in that mod would need to be geared toward VR players.
Do it right, double your player base ... as a minimum.
-----
There will be a very vocal group that will decry this idea solely because they don't want anything
that might distract from the creation of new end-game content for them.
Fair enough.
Do keep in mind that the player population is shrinking and there is a point where SS will be forced to pull the plug.
-----
If you want this game around long-term, they need more players.
Ads and word of mouth will not cut it anymore.
PC mmorpgs are on the decline.
Smart phone and VR gaming are on the rise and DDO does not translate well to the tiny smart phone screen.

Thats all I got, said my peace.
