I love playing MMORPGs, but the ones I'm playing/have played are starting to bore me and I'd like to find something else.
What I've played:
Runescape-Anarchy Online-Shadowbane-Guild Wars-World of Warcraft
I'm looking for a non-Asian game, preferably F2P/Micro because I'm in university right now (I have a few weeks before semester starts) and I can't waste money on a game I won't be able to play other than on the weekends.
I know most people hate Runescape because they don't see it as that good a game (after the PvP/Trading updates last December I can't blame you) but what I liked about it is that you don't have to download anything (you only have to have Java) and you can play it right in your web-browser, so players can access it from anywhere. If there is another MMORPG you can play in your browser I'd like to give it a shot except I'm not sure there is another...
Thanks for taking a look.

im not sure what you mean by non-asian... almost every game out has its roots to some asian developer. if by asian, you mean asian oriented, or that lame anime crap, then i completely understand.
theres a game out now called Wurm Online. It looks to be a sandbox mmo, with "decent" graphics. i think it is run through your browser, or it has the option to. I was going to try it myself tonight, but the laptop im on does not meet the requirements for direct3D.
i would try that first. its relatively new, and it only took me 10 minutes to register, download, and patch, before i was rejected for my awful business laptop.
i will definetly try it on my computer some time this weekend.
I've never been a big fan of anime MMORPGs either, but what I ment is that I'm looking for a game where the majority of the players aren't from Asia. For example, although they do not make up the majority of the player base, when I play Shadowbane I'd notice that a good part of the player-owned cities had Asian names (written using an Asian alphabet) and many players talking in the game channel wouldn't speak English, but Chinese or something.
Wurm Online you say? I'll look into it. Anyone else willing to suggest a game?

If you like browser games, check out tagoria. Those sorts of games are pretty cheap, but hey, some of us can dig em :P
What I'm playing now.
When I said I liked Runescape because you can play it in your browser I ment that I liked it that it was an actual game (character avatar and you move around and whatnot). Thanks anyway.
Anyone else?

Eternal Lands is similar to Runescape, has a small client and is free.
