We're not sure who clued Turbine into this particular fact, but our two favorite things on this earth are, in order: boats which use primitive yet impossible technology to travel through the skies, and owning property. The fifth major update to Dungeons and Dragons Online: Eberron Unlimited will manage to incorporate both of these elements into the free-to-play MMO when it launches June 28.
Not only will the update give your guild access to soaring, winged home bases, it will also add the "Carnival of Shadow" scenario to the game, which sounds like the worst carnival ever. Check out the game's blog for more information on this new adventure, or check out the gallery below to catch a few glimpses of DDO's pretty new airships.

When did D&D become Final Fantasy?

Just a heads up... Final Fantasy is based on D&D. Sorry to burst your bubble. Right down to the X spells per day, up to level 8 magic. It was designed around a lot of D&D concepts. Chocobos were stolen from Miyazaki's Nausicaa. FF as nice as it is, shouldn't be considered the origin for anything. That being said, if something did borrow from FF, I wouldn't cry fowl. Ideas inspire other's ideas. Eberron airships > FF airships, save for Ragnarok.

It's the other way around. Final Fantasy ripped off D&D.

Nearly every fantasy game out today has ripped off dungeons and dragons in some way, shape, or form(And even some non-fantasy games). Dungeons and dragons ripped off things before it.
That, and D&D came out in 1974. The first final fantasy came out 13 years later, in 1987
