Need a new game to play - Updated with Vid

[Bob101910]

I'm not gonna name names, but thanks to SOMEBODY I want to play a new mmorpg. I prefer a free one. NOTHING TEXT BASED!

List ones that you've played and what you thought of them.
I'll start, might be missing some.

These are only the ones that I've played at least 20 hours in. There were a lot that were just so bad I couldn't even play.

Lord Of The Rings Online - My favorite MMORPG at the moment. It is free to play and amazing. It is very casual, so there is NO grinding : ) Need stuff in it, ask me and I'll hook you up.

Runescape - Was fun when I played, but it's way too old now and feels lame compared to newer ones. If they made a version with much updated graphics and different controls, I would play.

FFxi - Way too much grinding for me. 20 levels in 20 hours and no Chocobo.....nuff said

Maple Story - Playing again.

Pirates of the Carribean Online - Was really fun, but none of my friends played. The ship battles were the best part of the game and I never even got to a high lvl!

Phantasy Star Online - It's the same as singleplayer, but you have to start leveling all over again. Would've liked it if you kept your singleplayer level.

World of Warcraft - Played for a couple weeks, but it was too much grinding for me at the time. After playing Maple Story, I got used to grinding and could probably handle it now.

Guild Wars - I liked it, but not enough of my friends played it.

Dofus - Fun, but it was mainly french players. I couldn't make friends or ask for help.

Atlantica Online - Alright for free, but not going to keep playing.

Vindictus - Playing now. Amazing for free.

Dungeon Fighter - Despite the generic name, this one was quite fun. Think old school side-scrolling beat 'em up with Anime and RPG stylings and an MMORPG quest system. Fun stuff.

Vindictus - Unfortunately my hardware wasn't quite up to snuff to handle this one, but it's definitely worth it if you can. In the time I played it I had a blast. If you've played Dungeon Fighter there are some similarities (It is from the same developer), but it has a different art style and plays like a 3D action game (i.e. Dynasty Warriors, Ninja Gaiden, God of War). Great visual quality for a real time action MMORPG and it's free to boot.

Rumble Fighter: Think super smash bros. with an MMO community and you'll be on the right track. I had my own reasons for quitting this one (My character in game was a girl and apparently every guy who plays this game thinks that just because the online avatar is a girl means the player is a girl, therefore I got hit on a lot. It was very awkward and annoying.) but it's pretty fun.

Minecraft: Not necessarily an MMORPG and not necessarily free, but you can't deny the power of minecraft. Think huge world made of Legos where you're free to wander, create, and "mine" wherever. You do have to watch out for zombies and other monsters at night, which at least forces you to make a base camp and invest in keeping swords handy at nighttime. If you want a free, offline only version of the game, I can provide.

MineCraft is ok, but the guy whos makes it is too money hungry. People are buying the game to support it's development, but now he's making another game when MineCraft isn't even finished!?!?! Slap to the face for the people who bought MineCraft.


EDIT: FortressCraft is a MineCraft clone that is coming to Xbox 360. Should be out next week. Will probably buy it.
