Well ive played a bunch of free ones, you could for fun join the open beta of lord of the rings online wich is going untill april 24th, but of course thats only temporary tho. Or else i would recomend games such as: Rappelz: Really good gfx pvp instances raid bosses and so on, it just takes a long time to download. Maple Story: Even tho its sorta childish its a lovely game and can really be taken serious even for a good gamer, because of upgrades and such. You need to be prepared to grind like hell tho. Knight Online: Rather fun since they introduced raids. Also many possibillitys for specs classes grouping and such, giant downside is that ALOT of people do only speak turkish within it. Monato Esprit: Still in beta as far as i know, sorta anime styled mmorpg really fun with nice effects, and ALOT of quests wich is lovely. Theres many more but you might want to take a look at some of them. By the way people not to be strict or complaining or anything, but the requrements was made clear! -Need to be FREE wich means no guild wars and such -Need to be an mmorpg wich means no counter strike warrock and so on. Anyhow i hope it helped. ~Cheers
If you like Age of Empires (or any other rts for that matter), you should check out Travian. http://www.travian.com/ It's addictive, you HAVE to play it in teams, it's fun. I played it for about 8 months total on 3 different servers (one game lasts around 6 - 9 months)
flyff -100% great value, but as someone mentioned most free mmo's are grindfests if your on flyff on aibatt server look up Lokgar and i'll buff you in my free time ;D
MapleStory is pretty good. However, when my friends and I play it and quit, we couldn't play any other MMO. Soon we'd be crawling back to MapleStory.
Maplestory or Cabal online. Maplestory=pure pure grind. But its addictive. Play jMS. gMS=hacker heaven. jMS has some english players on Kaede, they're all really friendly. Cabal Onlineest free online game ever created. Playable on computers a decade old, but on the best computers, the graphics are AMAZING. No grind at all. jCabal has an English patch to make everything english. <33
