I think there's a great deal of miscommunication and misunderstanding between the sandbox player and the "theme park" one. I have never, ever reached the level cap in a "grindy" mmo even though I enjoy them the most, and just because, like the aut…

I'd be interested in checking this game out as well. Drop me a mail at parcs@5elements.net if you have a code to spare. I also have a couple of friends who'd be interested, if anyone else happens to have more.

It depends on the content of the expansions. I'm not going to pay another $49,99 in addition to the monthly fee for 3 new skills and 1 new dungeon, but I might pay $30 for new player classes, new areas, new gear, new core mechanics, and so on. Ove…

Guild Wars doesn't have any monthly fees and is very casual friendly. It depends on why you want to play an mmo casually and not just an offline rpg though, since GW lacks a lot of those "mmo elements" that some of us enjoy, like wars and politics. …

Originally posted by Raitsesman How do you imagne mmo without classes? You learn plate armor skill,axe skill and healing skill and then you are in plate armor with big axe and you can heal to??..and then you learn some dmg magic to?? Don't you g…

I'm not really caught up that much in "classes" vs "class-less" (like eve or ryzom), but more if there are vastly different ways to play your character. 40 warrior classes isn't that impressive if they're virtually the same except for nuances and …

One of my favourite ways of playing mmo's is to try new stuff and think outside the box. Put mage armor on a warrior and maybe he can spam more skills and attacks than a warrior armor user, explore all the unpopular skills and classes in pvp, take t…

I'm of the "not picky" crowd. I'm not a roleplayer either, so as long as names aren't flat out offensive or immature, I don't really care much. I've named a couple of my characters "CheesyFantasyName" and "PewPewPew" when I couldn't think of anythin…

Guild Wars has no fee and is very solo/small party friendly since you can fill up your party with npc's. There's no regular trial, but you might have some luck asking for a buddy key on a gw fan forum or something. Check the stickies here if you…

I think I'd say Ryzom. It has so many cool features - my favourite being the ability to create your own attacks and spells. It just didn't get very popular due to the sandbox nature of it, which leaves most people just standing there wondering "what…

heh I've been called "eurof*g" on a couple of occasions once people "find out" that I'm from europe. I've never had anything against americans in general, but cmon, you can't blame us for having something against individuals who go by the logic th…

I read an article just the other day about eastern vs western mmo's. There was a small section mentioning how the american SotNW publisher asked the original designer to allow more customization, but he just gave him a "blank stare" and said he woul…

My point was that I'm tired of people claiming that mmo's with click-to-move "take no skill" in general. Not all mmo's are about reflexes and hand/eye coordination. They're about longer term strategy and the choices you make. Games like Eve and Shad…

I don't mind either way. I usually dislike jumping just for the sole fact of it looking completely goofy and serving no purpose in combat. It would make more sense if characters were able to climb over small obstacles instead of mario brosing over t…

As well as the already mentioned Lineage 2 and Eve, Shadowbane can get pretty rough as well. Everyone can attack anyone anywhere - except in major towns. When you die, anyone can loot your entire inventory except your equipped gear. There are sk…

It won't be the "next big thing", as it caters to too many niches. It's not a "grind levels" game, and it's not a "farm gear" game. Gear-wise it's basically like CoH where you choose whatever appearance and armor you want without it having any effec…

You might enjoy Guild Wars. There is a total of over 1100 skills in the game split between 10 classes, and your character is composed of (up to) 2 classes. You can only equip 8 skills at any given time, so it's not as simple as spamming Fire Ball, G…

It depends on what your goal in the game is. Eve is a sandbox game. There is no given goal. No "chain of quests" or "primary missions". Some people play it to conquer as much space as possible, some play it to become as rich as possible, some play…
