Star Wars Galaxies was the best MMO ever before they brought out those crappy combat updates and made everyone leave. I heard that they are going to be bringing out a server before all of that.

There are alot of MMOs out there (Free and Pay to play)
Heres a list with links, thanks to Wikipedia (It owns bad)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_MMORPGs

A quite good game I found that free (Although its EXACTLY the same as RF online but with more anime style graphics and less grinding for a better cause.) called Flyff.
You can download the client and register @

You CAN buy credits for special items but its not essential...You can play the game just as good without.

Im certainly going back to SWG if they release the new older version servers.

Just popping by to have my say in the non WoW chat :P

I'm looking at Warhammer, hoping that it turns out good, I dunno though the company got bought out be EA and EA can't make crap except for sports games :|

i play COH,COV and WOW hehehehe

[JogaBonito]

WoW beats all those other MMORPG with all those awards they won, they're mad good

[flesheatingcow]

I played CoV, It got boring for me after I got my travel power.

Anarchy Online is free, has crappy graphics, but is larger and more indepth than WoW.

[Killerbunnys]

'Better' is a relative term but here is a list of a few that you may want to try.

Pay to Play

3) Final Fantasy XI
The second best fantasy MMORPG after WoW with a quality story, great game play, and large subscriber numbers.


ROSE Online
Former free MMO that is now pay-to-play. Unlike most MMORPGs, players can actually affect the outcome of the game.

ok ive played Final Fantasy XI and its boring as **** but ROSE Online is so much fun i played it while it was still in beta that stuffs so addicting but so much fun but ya i wouldnt recommend FFXI

[HazMat]

Wow No one has said Anarchy online It was Pay to play and it Went free of course you cant get their expansions but its still a killer game i went from Rose to AO to WoW lol

[shadynova]

i agree with cush

[Aeryian]

ditto Shadynova, but I think in endgame, Flyff, like so many other mmo's, will probably get excrutiatingly boring. Which of course was one of the reasons I loved SWG, before NGE, because of the fact that you can change what you want to be whenever you like, you didnt have to restart your character. I hope you're right Cush, and that pre-CU or at least pre-NGE servers are put back up, legally :P

[Cush]

Thats what im really hoping. If they do come up, it WILL be Pre-NGE and Pre-CU.

Im not sure whats going on between them at the minute but if LucasArts dont set up live payed servers, the guys making the Emu will definatley be setting a big SWGEmu private server as well as releasing the Emu to the public (Its all completely legal since they wrote it themselves)

[LightWave]

SWG wont open up old game servers i been waiting for it to come back too i love SWG so ya Sony even said they wont and LA sold most of the game rights to Sony wich blows but ya SWG wont be going back to the old Game style wich is stupid lol and last night i seen a SWG Infomershal i about pissed my self laughing so hard

and well that is what at less i have read off the net and some SWG Forums

[Ednasil]

Yo, WoW gets so ****ing boring after a while.. are there any better MMORPG's out there?

Hacking makes WoW seem funner lol I do it all the time

[xlAnonym0uslx]

i tried downloading Flyff(from home site) before i looked on this post and it wont work

[Enfeebleness]

I've played a LOT of the more popular MMORPGs out there.

My long guide of games i've played and can remember only because somone said something about them ^^:

CoX-Not a -BAD- game, but it gets boring fairly quickly, due to you find your self doing nothing but missions eventually, which really, isn't that fun. This however is the one of the few games where i would want to reroll a lvl 2 character, just because they have new sweet spells that are really fun to play with.

GW-Also, not a -BAD- game, but it too gets boring due to how little is, or was, in the game other then getting levels. And the ability to hold only like, 8 spells, what the heck is up with that? Oh darn, i chose the wrong spell for this boss, looks like we're going to have to do it over; pft. I say was because i haven't baught its latest thing, haven't patched it, done anything involving the game, in a LONG time.

Flyff-I LOVE games that look like this, and even if it doesn't look the greatest, if it visually looks like a game like this (very cartoony), i atleast give it a try. Flyff however, i got bored of within one day >.<.

Rose-This would be my second favorate game, and you got to love that at lvl like, 7 you can be making enough money off one lucky drop (which isnt nearly a like, .01% drop or anything, more like a 1%) to buy tons of stuff with your level. You can practicly have the money as if you have a main, on your first character, makes lots of fun with trying things out . I leveled my character until he had his aoe, then i stopped playing it (can't remember why) but yet if you gave me the opprotunity, i'de be able to jump back in and keep on playing it. Wasn't working on my computer though lately if i remember right

Mu Online-Didn't work on my computer

Runescape-As sorry as i am to say it, i do have a level 71 account, it was a game that you could get into without installing or doing anything, and when you're new to rpg's, not bad. As soon as you see ANY other mmorpg game though, you realize....."Wait a second....holy CRAP this game is retarded!". You really got to give them credit though on making the members only $5 a month, however, that credit quickly gets taken away due to...it's runescape; you dont need more explanation then that.
On a side note: i suck at pvp in runescape, always afraid of losing my phat lewt

MapleStory-Not terrible, not great, got a few days play out of it, then it eventually got boring doing nothing but:
1) take steps right until you see an enemy
2) spam your attacks on it pushing one or 2 keys tops
3) spam your loot button
4) repeat

Ragnarok Online-Pft, i got tired of this in about 2 hours.

Playing Hero Online atm, not a terrible game, again, not the best or anything, but playable


Maaan, as i was going back and reading too Rose is a p2p now? Meh, and i wanted to go play it more


Edit: Got so tied up that i nearly forgot:

WoW-The god of Mmorpgs, the one game that is spoken of in practicly EVERY other MMORPG at some point. The main reason i end up usually falling back and forgetting the other games, is because i can always just go play WoW. Their's so much to do, bored, go find a spot you shouldn't be in. Or go farm for a bit, not the funnest, but it can be, and it passes time quickly. Not 60? Train, it's what you're supposed to be doing ^^. 60? Make a twink. Make 2 twinks. Make another character you actually plan on leveling up. Run an instance with some friends. Look in the AH for something you might be interested in. Look in the AH for something one of your twinks would be interested in . Just ride your mount around. Work on some better items. Raid (or wait on the raid, doing one of the things i list). PvP a bit. Find some monsters that you just feel like killing. As a mage, it's always really fun and entertaining just to go find some elite and try and solo him, via kiting most of the time. Run an instance. You can do practicly anything you want, and theirs lots to do when you're bored of one thing.


BTW: Yeah, i use alot of smileys
