Some new MMORPG Ideas

Gamers prefer classic MMORPGs

Even though new free MMORPG games are released practically every week – the most popular free to play games are still the same games that were popular 2-3 years ago. The reason for this is clear – MMORPG gamers seem to prefer classic games like Silkroad Online and MapleStory over ‘newer’ MMOs like Cloud Nine, Bright Shadow and Battle of Destiny. This is likely due to a combination of two things. Firstly, these older games are more established – as in they already have a large community and since they’ve been around for a long while they also tend to have more content.

What the Heck is Uforia Doing - The MMORPG Company

Uforia is a relatively new free to play MMORPG
publisher on the block – one of the newest actually. I really have no
clue what they’re thinking though. You’d imagine that a NEW game
publisher would try to ‘start off’ on a good foot by launching with
some epic new games – but nope. Uforia launched their MMORPG service
with a fairly old game called NosTale.

MMOs vs MMORPGs

Even though there are a boatload of free MMORPG games
out there – they do get boring. Personally – I like to take a break
from MMORPGs every once in a while and kick back and play some MMOs. I
say ‘kick back’ because MMOs tend to require a lot less time commitment
to enjoy. Most MMORPGs require an enormous investment of time before
they really get good while MMOs can be enjoyed right away. There are an

All In One MMORPG Account

Sometimes I wish that every single free to play MMORPG was easily accessible on ONE website. I’m not talking about an MMORPG Review
site like MMOHut – I’m talking about one massive MMORPG game publisher.
Instead of Aeria Games publishing 8 or so games and OG Planet 4, Gamers
First publishing 5 – imagine ALL of these games being published on ONE
site. There are easily 120+ free to play games out there so this would

Fun Free MMO Games

I’ve been trying to get myself to play a lot of Free MMOGs
lately, note that I did say ‘MMO’ and not ‘MMORPG'. For those that
don’t know the difference – an MMORPG is a massively multiplayer online
role playing game while an MMOG is a massively multiplayer online game.
The key distinction is that an MMOG does not have to be an RPG. For
example, a shooting game like Battlefield Heroes

Latest Wave of Free MMORPGs

Omer Altay — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 01:55:50 -0500

As most free MMORPG
gamers already know – more and more free to play games are being
released every month. This isn’t too surprising though – as more and
more game publishers are trying to hit it big by releasing a
blockbuster game. What is surprising though is that the quality of
these free to play MMORPGs is improving… quite fast. Perhaps the most
impressive free to play game I played recently was Dungeons and Dragons Online.

Where are all the MMORPG Tutorials?

Omer Altay — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 14:47:33 -0400

I’m not sure why, but it seems like the growing trend in free MMORPG
games it to launch the game without a tutorial. I had the opportunity
to play the Dragon Sky open beta just the other day and I found myself
a bit confused, as the game didn’t have a tutorial. Now, I’m no newbie

The Decline of PvP in MMORPGs

The year was 1998 and I had just started my very first MMORPG, Ultima Online.
I had no idea what to expect from this new genre but at first things
didn’t look so different. I wandered around town and eventually made my
way to a nearby forest. After killing a few orcs and trolls I thought I
had the game figured out but what happened next took be my surprise. In
the distance I saw another band of travelers and decided to make my way
towards them to say hello. Little did I know that this particular group

Crafting in MMORPGs - The Second Grind

Omer Altay — Sun, 04 Oct 2009 10:39:26 -0400

So many people complain that leveling in some MMORPG
games can take too long, and those that complain do have valid reasons,
but one argument that I rarely hear is that grinding ‘crafting skills’
takes too long. In all honesty, I feel that improving crafting skills
in most MMO Games is
a complete waste of time, as its 100% mindless grind. At least when you
‘grind experience’, you’re actually doing something, killing monsters.
