Aeria Games have released alot of good hack 'n' slash MMORPG's like Last Chaos and Shayai. They also have alot of good Gm's who love to help. Fun events every week, AP (Aeria Points) for special items and best of all an extensive range of forums with more posts than people in the world
I'm gonna necro this thread to give my opinion on this. First off a WoW is not a hack and slash game for anyone else that doesn't know what a hack and slash game is check out this video.
Second a TERA video was linked earlier in this thread, I played Korean OBT and retail for a little while. I do not suggest this game, if your are looking for a hack and slash game you are probably looking for fast paced combat. While TERA may have some action/hack and slash elements it's slow as all hell, your better off playing WoW in that case since it's combat is easily 4x as fast as TERA's. There are a few action/hack and slash games coming out that I would suggest though.
I haven't played this and from what I've seen it may have some of the same problems as TERA however like said I haven't played it so it's still something I'm looking out for and you probably should to if you like these types of games. It currently does not have a US release date.
Goes into open beta next month extremely fast paced combat with combo systems this game has extremely low system requirements however the art style doesn't appeal to everyone and the class' are gender locked. As stupid as it sounds to me that is enough for some people to not play this game.
Don't be fooled by the video saying that it is Mabinogi Heroes that is the games Korean name it was renamed for the US release and is known as Vindictus. I've played this game for quite some time actually and it's pretty fun. However I'll go ahead and tell you that the entire game is hosted peer to peer, meaning you will find bad hosts and lag. There is also no end game at all once you get to the end your pretty much done, you can farm raid boss' for mats and try to min-max your gear but there really isn't a point since the raid boss' your killing are the only ones and you can already kill them. The game is also extremely linear you are told what you are going to do next with there being little else to do, if you don't do it well, then progressing becomes extremely difficult.
Hi. I've recently been searching for hack&slash MMORPGs too.
I'd like to say, that yes, TERA is boring, because you take turns to attack, really bad when there's a lot of people. Vindictus/Mabinogi Heroes aren't avaliable to EU, Oceania and etc.
Which really upset me, because I really, really wanted to play Vindictus. I tried for two hours to set up some sort of proxy thing; didn't work. So big waste. Vindictus/Mabinogi Heroes' probably the most well-known H&S MMORPG. It's also free and is meant to have stunning graphics. Probz because Nexon's totally rich.
A nice hack&slash game would Divine Souls, it's free and came out at about the same time as Vindictus. Yeah, the graphics are kinda skimpy, and there are only for 4 genderlocked classes, 2 female, 2 male which are barely customizable, but it isn't country restricted. It's still not very developed, maybe in a couple of years it will be better, but right now, it's pretty good as it is. It acutally requires skill and thought into finishing quests.
& ofc, the characters are all, super hot.
I've also being hearing noise about Continent of the Ninth, or C9 for short. (I mistakened it for Cloud Nine :L. There's an MMO called that.) Currently, it's only been released in Korean, although I believe people around the world can play it. That's if you are first able to get through the language barrier. The thing I've linked you too, is the English fansite's download link.
Please, do not say WoW is hack and slash. It's disappointing. Hack&Slash is defined by killing mobs of enemies with consecutive attacks/combos. Not point, click, wait until the wild boar. While attacking, hack&slash will allows the player to redirect their attack in the middle of a combo, but will miss if not aimed, out of range of is countered. There's no aimbot in hack&slash.
I also heard somewhere about 'Maplestory' being H&S. ... srsly...

DDO is a good hack n'slash game I guess. It's rated best F2P of the year by MMORGP. I personally didn't like it.
You can give it a try!

Forget C9 and Mabinogi Heroes.

What about Torchlight? Lol.
Oh and I dunno where the guy is getting the idea that Shaiya and Last Chaos are hack n slash...SUN is a little closer to that...

Torchlight is not an MMO yet.
The best hack and slash game out there is probably World of Warcraft, if by hack and slash you mean target, hit key and yawn.
I havent played some of the games suggested here but DDO would fit as a hack and slash.
Dungeon Fighter online would be my first thought, though it is 2D.
Racoon race?! Bwahahaha!
The visuals do not seem to make me go WTF like many asians MMOs. Might just have to give it a go.
Forever looking for employment. Life is rather dull without it.
