The DAO servers where taken down last month.
I moved your post to a thread about the topic.
The DAO server where taken down last October. It will not come back online again.
The game itself is fully functional without the server.
yes it's functional but all achievements are gone and the items added from those achievements are not added...
i had all the achievements unlocked and the items from those... i don't want to have to go through all those achievements again...
items like the special robes for getting all the schools maxed, the blight sword from the darkspawn cronicals... (not sure of spelling of cronicals)
and there were other items that i had that are no longer accessible
the only achievement i didn't get was the keeping the ogre alive throughout the quest
