Looking for a new MMO

[Flame]

Well, I have been playing Runescape recently but this game kinda reeks. It's decent for being a web browser mmo I guess but I really want something with better graphics. Heck, I'm even willing to try WOW at this point, but I would rather do something Star Wars related. I heard that they were coming out with this new MMORPG--is that supposed to be any good?

Only solid star wars related MMORPG coming is SW:TOR (The Old Republic) otherwise in the meantime wow might sate the urge, FFXIV, also can dip into things like the multitude of various free mmos out there.

Its sorta an odd time for MMOs in general though since the king is old, and the new kids aren't out yet.

WoW is about to undergo a MASSIVE overhaul with the Cataclysm expansion due about Dec 7.

For more info about SW:TOR check

Being done by Bioware, so they might be writing story...just a hunch.

Lord of the Rings Online is now Free-To-Play. Just go to the site and download the client. It's a decent enough game.

WoW, as Genkaku said, is about to get an expansion which might be a good time to get into it.

WoW.

True. Lord of the Rings Online and Dungeons and Dragons Online are both free to play, solid quality.

You might be on to something here. *nods* :)

The biggest grippe I have with LOTRO right now is how dated the HUD looks. It really discourages me from wanting to play. DDO is pretty fun, though: mix of combat and a little puzzle solving.

I personally use MMO Hut to look up reviews and such for free-to-play MMOs. They also have reviews on MMOs with a trial version.

Guild wars? Its like 40 for the entire series, but its awesome.

I wouldn't bother with WoW unless you have all that extra cash, you are going to have to by the original game, Burning Crusade, Wrath of the Lich King, and the fourth expansion Cataclysm is slated for the end of the year. So you are looking at around 150 for everything, not worth it IMO.

Star Wars Galaxies

It has pretty good graphics and a realistic experience. It is also free for 14 days. Enjoy it. You can be a jedi, officer, bounty hunter, ect.

Don't listen to him. Galaxies has been crap for years.

EVE online is pretty decent if you have friends.

Hey, no doing that. We all know the people who play EVE have no friends.

He said that WoW isn't worth it unless you're willing to shell out the cash for its expansions. =P

What's wrong with Star Wars Galaxies? Besides me not wanting to pay after the two times I got the demo.

Myself personally I had issues getting into it, just felt very...very.........very empty.
