ME2 - Mass Effect 2 review - in-depth - Gamers Forum (http://www.gamers-forum.com/showthread.php?t=13461)
DAO - Dragon Age Origins - Gamers Forum (http://www.gamers-forum.com/showthread.php?t=12876)

Jango - those aren't MMOs, they're just RPGs. :\

I recommend trying out Requiem: Momento Mori (http://www.playrequiem.com/). Morticia recommended it to me (http://www.gamers-forum.com/showthread.php?t=13196&p=191888) a while ago and while I've got it installed, I haven't gotten a chance to try it yet. It's free, too :) Of all the free MMOs I've seen (and I've seen a handful..) this one looks the most promising yet.

I hope this helps!

MMORPG's have been weak recently.

Aion - was Okay.

Darkfall - is Good but the way it's played by the players makes it mediocre.

Champions online - had no Depth

Runes of magic - is literally a Wow clone and they admit it, it's just Free

Battle swarm field of Honor - got Old really fast.

Mortal Online - Who knows when Mortal online will be released Last I played the Beta it Felt Very Empty and Dull as well as VERY slow to get started.

BUT that will change by the end of this year

The old republic - is coming

Final fantasy 14 - is most likely coming sometime this year.

Guild wars 2 - looks decent, I've never really been a fan of Guild wars. That's coming sometime this year.

APB - The GTA alike MMORPG(if you can call it that) is due this year as well.

Continent ninth - looks amazing Who knows when that's coming to NA.

Mobinogi heroes - looks awesome too but who knows when that comes to NA.

all every good games but It seems i'm going to give darkfall a try!! thank you shixx that looks like a amazing game.. I gave you some rep as well..

Did Requiem used to be called Bloodymare? I used to play that, I was drawn in by the havoc engine and the promise of nightmare creatures and turning into them yourself. Sadly it was basically Two Moon (literally, monsters died the same way) with an odd transformation gauge that threw off the game because it was so overpowered. And slightly more grindy than usual.

Personally I would not recommend it. If you are looking for something free with more colorful environments I recommend Eternal Earth its like a WOW clone for the f2p micro transaction crowd. You can even take surveys and stuff to earn in game transaction points. I registered for netflicks because of it. =P

Did I mention everyone has to play as an animal!? ((***** YEAH SEAKING! =P) wanted to post my awesome Hart warrior pic here but will have to wait)

Eternal earth is that F2p Browser based MMORPG that I made an awesome Frog on?..
I only played it for about 20 min, maybe I should play it some more..

Oh, on Darkfall

might help you

[BobTD]

yep thats the on, Eternal Earth actually had a budget over 2mill so its got a lot of development put into it, more than any other f2p MMORPG that I know of. I thought it was cool at least.

You can try these out:

Fiesta Online - I compare this game to WoW, though Fiesta is free-to-play with a great community and a very nice anime touch it.


Game Description:

Fiesta is a free multiplayer online role playing game set in the colorful land of Isya. Inside the game's vibrant and immersive environments players socialize, make friends and experience endless adventures.

Fiesta's rapidly growing community of players are what make the game truly special, and new members of the community will quickly discover that they are not alone. In addition to other players, the game features an active group of Outspark employees who hold many in-game events each week for participants of all skill levels. Whether their focus is on battling fierce monsters, scouring the land for treasure or dressing up and dancing, events are meant to encourage teamwork and interaction among players.

With hundreds of quests, player-versus-player content, item crafting and much more, Fiesta is a full-featured MMO promising plenty of fun. For even more ways to personalize the game players are invited to visit the Fiesta Store, which offers hundreds of premium items for sale including new outfits, character mounts, pets and other items designed to make each experience even more unique.

Secret of the Solstice - Very similar to Ragnorak but free. A lot of quests and NPCs...I was addicted to it simply because it was challenging and I had a blast playing with my friends. If I had the chance, I would post up the trailer for it since a new trailer came out recently which I thought was really awesome.


Game Description:

Secret of the Solstice is a free fantasy MMORPG with anime graphics from the same company as Fiesta. While most MMORPGs have several classes to choose from, all characters in Secret of the Solstice start out with the same class and eventually evolve into more diverse classes. Once a player reaches level 16, he/she can choose from four different job guilds (Rogue, Fighter, Acolyte, or Mage). Once in a job guild, players gain different classes within that guild depending on levels. For example, a player who joins the Mage Guild can become a Wizard at level 96. Another nice feature of the game is that second grade skills can be acquired from hunting foes or from trading with other players. You will not be able to trade skills of any kind in most MMOs. Lastly, players are given experience bonuses for grouping with other players instead of trying to go it alone. This is a nice touch to help with the social aspect of the game.

Key Features

* Free to play.
* Anime-style graphics.
* Characters and monsters are in 2D while environments are in 3D.
* Players can get married.
* Has a max level of 179.
* All players start as the same class, Xenian.
* Four job guilds: Rogue, Fighter, Acolyte, and Mage.
* Players can evolve their class by joining a job guild after level 16.
* Once in a job guild, players gain access to further classes by gaining levels.
* Some skills can be acquired from battle and trading.
* Grouping yields at least a 10% experience bonus for each player.
* Storage system allows up to 100 items be stored but all characters on the same account share this storage.
* Smelting can upgrade or downgrade an item.
* GM's run various events in the game on a consistent basis.
* Download is 1 GB.

Well.. I just play Carnage Blender (http://www.carnageblender.com) My last friend told me it's a little repetitive, but I like it.

[BobTD]

I dont think that really qualifies as an MMO... Im looking into it but that looks like less of an MMO than Diablo2.

[Project Blaze]

Oh. I just figured since there's a lot of people there that play it. lol Sorry if it isn't, thought it was. :/
