No matter what people say, it really doesn't matter.

I'm not new to MMOs exactly. I'm not one to pay any money (mainly because I'm broke) so I don't get all of the additional things in games, but I still play them for the fun. (Which is what counts, right?) Well, I was wondering what kind of games people would recommend. I've played just about every game that comes within the FlyFF/MapleStory/Mabinogi area of games, but I just can't seem to find a game that holds my interest for any amount of time.

So, as my main question is, do you recommend any games for me to try?

Im not meaning to flame ya so dont take it that way but how can someone not afford 15 bucks a month, even if you are broke.


I mean, you can afford a good enough pc to play a mmo, you can afford a highspeed internet connection but you cant afford 15 a month.

Really?

I've tried several F2P MMOs, and they never held my interest either. Ive had a lot more enjoyment through mainstram MMos ...just better quality for the most part

well he is 14 , and maybe mom and dad don't have the extra cash now for mmo's. times are hard now on lots of people.

runes of magic is fun

Atlantica Online has many people loving it

Perfect World Internationa.. is ok, bit grindy tho

 

 look at the game list tab and read what is rated high and look for something free or with mocro payments. these are ok and you don't have to buy from the in game store.

 

Good luck

I recommand "Shattered Dimension". Its F2P, graphic is very beautiful, maybe a bit cartoony, but i love the effect of  the combat animations, expecially if you choose demonic class, the whole screen will shake when a skill is unleash.

Another thing is the AH is with you, so you can put up items for sale anywhere and carry on with your game. No need to open up a shop and waste time shouting. But once you log off your items will also be gone from AH and you have to put it up again when you log in.

There's also instances for Raid and PvP.

 Edit: Forget to add, this game also have tons of quest, just like WoW. And quest will also give you rep, from nobody all the way to distinguish. Its not those typical asian grinding mmo...

Enjoy...

I downloaded Wizard 101 for my daughter to play and I find myself logging in from time to time when she isn't around.  I know it's for the kiddies, but it is charming and  fun in it's own way.  I recomend it.

        Its all in how you look at it....Lets say you started playing WoW from day 1......sure its jsut 15 bucks a month but several months pass.....an expansion or two is released.......Before you know it you have spent almost a hundred bucks on expansions and a little short of a grand on monthly fees.......Factor in that some people like to play more than 1 account and these games add up faster than you think....I didnt play WoW for all that long but I did play EQ for 5 years......When all was said and done I figure I spent well over a thousand bucks, especially with them cranking out expansions every 6 months......So before you go calling people that dont want to spend 15 bucks a month cheap you might want to consider long term ramifications.

Before I what?

Maybe you want to edit your post because at no time did I call this gentleman cheap.
I dont understand when people say they cannot afford a mmo. Its as simple as that.

Buying one mmo and spending 15 a month is cheaper in my opinion than say buying a game and beating it 3 days later and a couple weeks down the line buying another and doing the same. Many of the console crowd do this very thing.

I was not raised in a wealthy family but usually once a month or sometimes twice Id get 10-20 bucks for an allowance. Maybe the poster could mow some lawns and play quality mmos.

F2P will get boring quick

P2P will cost you if your play more than a month.

soo just bite the bullet and play the one that interest u the most,
