I used to be a huge fan and follow almost every korean mmorpg that I could get my hands onto, Priston Tale, Ragnoraok, etc. I used to play in their betas / alphas all of the time. I recently played Dark and Lights SoG and did not like it, they are far to behind in their list of features and I do not think that game will be 'full' for another 2 years. I do not want to play, nor have I, play WoW or EQ series. I used to play Lineage II, but it got boring quick. I loved Diablo II LOD (pre 1.1 patch) and Priston Tale was my all time favorite. What games are worth looking into right now?

Maybe try RF Online , but that one is made by same ppl as Lineage II I believe so you might not like that.

Guild Wars, but that's not really a true MMORPG...it's more like Diablo 2 w/ better graphics.

D&D online might be good, haven't read much about it.

Not sure why you wouldn't try WoW...that is by far the best MMORPG out.

WoW FTW!

I actually just restarted my WoW account after I quit a few months ago. It's the best MMORPG out right now.

I was talking to some kids who play it and they say its meant for 10 year olds, and I believed it when I saw the game in action.

Guild Wars isn't that great, it definatly lacks a good auction system and I do not like the D2 style playing anymore. Though the graphics are pretty good. I want to try DD online, but I haven't looked into that too much either.

I really want a game like priston tale, if anyone has heard of that game.


Any other games that have great potential?

EVE-Online, if you like complexity and potentially elaborate pvp, and a space-based MMORPG as opposed to a swords and sorcery based one.

I have played EVE before, but it costs a good amount of REAL money (cashola) to do anything worth while. Its more of a FPS too, if I remember.

All the kiddies play on the Alliance side. Just join Horde and you will be fine.

Anyways, when you were watching the game, what made you think it was a kid's game?

It reminds me of Warcraft III, a lot. They actually said the game is simple minded, for people the age of ~10.

Yes. Combat consists of two badly animated characters smacking each other with
whatever weapon they currently have. Sinjid has better combat. :roll:

Shadowbane is free.

Ultima Online would blow your mind at the enormity of what that game offers now. Seriously, last time I played it, I spent a couple weeks JUST designing my house....and it was on an 8x8 lot. It's a pale shadow of what it used to be, but still would take you literally months of hardcore playing to unravel the compexity and minutia.
