I know I’m late to the party, I don’t care. I have to throw my two cents (£0.0135135) in.

I don’t know if anyone else has noticed, but it seems that planet Earth is a little hard up for cash these days. This means layoffs, foreclosures, and–horror of horrors–letting one’s MMO subscriptions lapse. I have a group of friends with whom I would play World of Warcraft and Warhammer Online into the wee hours of the night, but those days are gone as the dire state of the economy takes its toll on their pocketbooks. I’ve been searching around for a no-money-cost variety alternative, and since RPS has always been great at pointing out these little freebie projects, I had a look-see through the archives.

Boy, am I glad I did.

Runes of Magic is GREAT. It’s got all the MMO staples: Instanced dungeons, armor sets, PvP arenas, guild battles, mounts, crafting, auction houses… and a pile of stuff you don’t see too often. Dual-classing? Runes? Furnishable player houses!? Hells yes.

It’s been said, but WoW players will feel right at home. The interface is… let’s just say “familiar,” right down to the mutability. Curse already has a Runes of Magic section for UI addons. Macros, too, for people who like to fiddle, and the official forums are already full of suggested character builds (and the subsequent fervent accusations of overpowered and underpowered classes).

Please play this game. Get all your friends. I think you’ll like it, and besides, I wanna see endeavors like this one work, especially one so polished and fun to play as Runes of Magic. Yes, there are some rough spots, and micropayments may irritate some people, but really. This is as full-featured as a free MMO has ever gotten (and I’ve played plenty: I have this horrid compulsion to snork up free-to-play MMOs as I find them), and convincing a bunch of friends together to kick around Taborea with you is a blast. And they don’t really have a reason to object… it doesn’t cost them anything.

I played an MMO once. That’s three hours of my life I won’t get back in a hurry. Call me in five years when someone’s thought of something good to do with the concept.

Is that 40K thing still in development? Vigil’s site hasn’t been updated in a long time, and I haven’t seen much news on it since about this time last year.
I worry with the THQ cutbacks that perhaps this title’s been binned :(

You just made my day, you have no idea! *stares at his blood angel patriarch model on desk*
Of course if you see a tiny blonde women coming at you with a knife anytime soon run, that’s the girlfriend.

It’s free to play-what have you got to lose by trying it if you’re interested? I gave it a shot yesterday after seeing Jim’s article, and I have to say, it’s not all bad, definitely better than most of the free MMO’s out there. Seeing as it’s only just released, I imagine a bit more time and polish could make this better-more classes and races, maybe?

Although, I noticed an automated bot spamming goldseller messages in the opening stage-christ, those things get everywhere! On launch day too!

@ Danarchist et al

There’s a 40k MMO in the works, if that helps.

I played it to kill time till Apocrypha dropped and was pleasantly surprised. My first thought when looking at the website was your usual asian grindfest but once in I found the art to be different enough from Wow (and other free to play Asian MMO’s I’ve played) to not grate on the eyeballs and the dual class system intriguing.

I would say that its got more in common with Guild Wars than WoW, even though the art is not as polished as GW.

One thing I can’t quite get my head around is the multitude of crafting options available. You’ve got your standard garther and create tradeskills and then you’ve got the arcane transmuter thingy (which you have to do daily quests or pay money to get charges for) which looks similar to the cube thing from Diablo 2. It supposedly allows you to combine the various runes of the title into new and interesting varieties which you can then attatch to items with the relevant sockets. I couldn’t figure out how it worked though and there was a distinct lack of recipies available when I looked on the fora.

All in all its a capable and nicely presented MMO, but needs a better manual or alot of hunting and reading to get the most out of it. But hey, its free so you can’t really complain.

On another note I’ve never really got the spreadsheet references about EVE and I’ve been playing for five years. Whoever came up with that one must be doing something wrong.

Played beta after i dinged lvl 50 and did most of the quests it just ended up being fuck boring grind2udie to level your secondary class… A lot of stuff in it needs a remake for me to return to it.
But if you are really bored and dont know what to play then give it a shot but a warring have been given ;)
