Instead of copy/pasting, why don't you post MMOs that you actually know and make a little description?
If not http://www.onrpg.com/ is the place to go.

Jesus, I saw you mentioning DarkFall as a free game, but it seems you need to pay for it.

Maybe you can correct me? cause I really want to play Darkfall but I can't afford paying for it.

Is it still free?

My mistake.

I was under the impression that it was free-to-play, but after doing a quick Google search, I found that it's subscription based.

Last Chaos looks so much better than when it was released

MC, that list is useful but 3/4 of those games do suck. I'm trying to limit the bad ones. Otherwise thanks man. :p

seeing how you have games with similar subscriber bases in your "mmo kings" part, care to chuck in Age of Conan?

Archlord's alright for a free MMO. The classes are a bit limited but there's a fair few things to do. It was originally a game one bought on CD and had a subscription but became free and downloadable. There is stuff you can pay real money for though.

Planeshift wasn't that great. It's pretty ugly and unfinished, many classes lacked models. Mabinogi won't let you play from certain countries.

Seriously, I'm waiting for Jumpgate Evolution. MMO + Freelancer controls, it just has to be awesome.

As anyone ever played freerealms? It seems to be very entertaining.

I have noticed there was an increase in the Real-time combat mmorpgs. Now 2 things separate me and them - Some aren't released yet(in beta) and the monthly payment. (monthly, god sakes, how can some people afford it)

I thought about this idea a few years ago, hardly expressed it, I guess it is gonna make some kind of revolution in the MMOs.

I'm glad its happening though.

I will give some:

DarkFall http://www.darkfallonline.com/
The Chronicles Of Spellborn http://www.tcos.com/en/index.html
Mortal Online http://www.mortalonline.com/

Cabal Online is pretty fun. Once you reach level 10 you gain the ability to combo your skills. You use the Combo Skill, it brings up a bar that offers increased Damage and EXP. The bar fills up and you use an attack skill when the bar hits the designated spot on the bar. You can attack much faster than casting the skills normally and it keeps the grind a bit interesting. It's important to pick your skills carefully, as their cooldowns still apply and will break the combo if you use a skill that isn't ready to be used again.

I've played it for like two hours and its pretty good. Probably not for anyone who wants a serious MMO.
Oh ****, a nice casual social MMO? This may be perfect for me.

The fact people get tired of serious mmos, is because they are serious. I'm problably gonna give this a try. Deman, if you start playing tell me the server you choose xD.

Ragnarok Online also has a free to play server with a cash shop. The increased the experience rates of their pay servers and the free server is set to what those were originally at. Still doesn't stop it from being a grindy game though.

Free Realms is actually aimed at age 10 and up. Seen their commercials on the Disney Channel. It's still fun.

It keeps putting me into Server 4... my characters name is Jamesy... lul.
