Several people in the beta have commented that the DDO store has a significant amount of locked content and there is no way before trying to begin a quest to find out if you need to buy it. They report going through the motions only to be stonewalled as they're suddenly told they have to pay to continue. Yeah, sounds pretty awesome to me. I can't imagine how that'd wreck someones time.

 As for it being D&D no it isn't. D&D isn't just a rules set. D&D is also the worlds in which you play. No one has ever had a DM run a game where the land is crawling with heroes all doing the same thing over and over.
