[PC] MMO Game Recommendations

[Gatx]

I guess I'm a bit late, but this topic is still on the front page so....

My first and favorite MMORPG was Star Wars Galaxies, but its changed now so. It had a great community, with player run economy, player run towns, and etc.

The only game that I've found that comes close to that, that's F2P anyway, is Mabinogi. Its graphics have its own charm, and there's so much to do other than grinding. For example there's a system where your character can play music that you write, though its just for leisure, it doesn't give buffs or anything. A lot of people will stand around town playing anime songs.

Its also one of the few games out there where characters won't all be wearing the same armor. Typically I've found that most games only offer one set of armor for each class at each level interval.

So definitely if you want to try something out of the ordinary you should try Mabinogi.

It is nice to know I'm not the only one remaining who misses SWG. Oh, I miss those days roaming Lok, my master scout with my imperial battalion. :( I get some serious nostalgia whenever thinking about anything Star Wars related now. xD

I tried Maginogi for a while... Ended up not liking it.

Though you can get different gear...it's incredibly...INCREDIBLY expensive. And no gear really offers any significant boosts until later on and then you can restart your leveling process so it's kind of...a grind in its own sense. I didn't find much replay value.

That and you can get mounts but you have to pay for them.

Did you ever get the desire to beat up furries? Did you ever want to harness the magical powers of pasta? Does the though of having a Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot fight by your side make you giddy? Well then, Kingdom of Loathing is the MMORPG for you!

I picked up Forsaken World the other day...

I have played to level 20, and I am rather impressed with it.

Beautiful graphics for a free to play...which always makes casting and such more fun.

I also like the auto run to quest object feature...helps noobs like me to learn where things are...

On the other hand, I have to run. A lot.

I still recommend it...it is quite fun. Race/Class selection is limited though. :(
