Exclamation Looking for a different mmo

I've been looking around for an MMO to play, and I've noticed their all amost exactly the same. Im trying to find an mmo that breaks out of the cookie cutter. It doesn't have to be free, it doesn't have to be good. I just need something to freaking do. Any suggestions would be great.

There is. . . .

Requiem: Memento Mori
Earth Eternal
Fallen Earth
CrimeCraft

Those look quite good and aren't categorized by the standards of World of Warcraft with the elves and the dwarfes and the archers and la-dee-dah. Except Earth Eternal, completely different races and a deep lore but it holds true to the archer, warrior, and mage standards.

Anarchy Online is really high quality and is still going strong after...I think it is 12 years now. Graphics are decent for such an old game too. Also, it has 5 expansion packs...=P

Chonicles of spellborn is mmorpg that uses unreal 2 engine and is huge its defntly different in the combat system, "everything else is mmorpg like". Its free hit and armor/weapons are just for looks though you can put slots in them it doesnt make that big difference.

I know of some unique MMO's.
There's Maplestory, the 2d side scroller. Although there's no pvp and it's kind of a grind, it's undoubtedly one of a kind.

Cabal Online's combo system entertained me for a while. That's the only thing that really stood out, in my opinion. Still, it's a pretty popular game.

Dream Of Mirror Online(DOMO) has an interesting dual-class system, and the party quests are really fun. One of the best F2P MMORPG I've seen so far.

Silkroad Online's merchant/thief system was also pretty fun, although the game is pretty laggy.

Oh, and I can't forget Ragnarok Online. A lot of classes, and interesting gaming mechanics(Stat/skill mechanics, PvP, card system). The free server is filled with bots, so most people play on private servers(me included). Or you could play on the P2P servers. It's the only game I keep coming back to, and the best F2P game, in my opinion. PM me about this one if you need some more information.

Another game I keep coming back to is Tibia. Nostalgia might be the main reason, since it was my first MMO, but it's also pretty unique. Granted, the graphics and the community kinda suck, and it's 2D, but it's still worth some of your time, I'd say. The thing that appeals to me is the ability to kill one on sight(On PvP servers). You could also go on a non-PvP server, though. You can also PM me about this game. Don't let the bad graphics scare you away!

I nearly forgot to mention Rush On Seven Episodes(ROSE Online). ROSE online was published by Gravity(the developers of Ragnarok Online). It's a fun game, though I can't think of any redeeming qualities it possesses.

I'll put these games in order, the best game being the righternmost.
Cabal Online, ROSE Online, Silkroad Online, Maplestory, Tibia, DOMO Online, Ragnarok Online.
Tibia and Maplestory's spots can be switched. I just enjoyed Tibia more.
Keel in mind that these are just my opinions.


I've played most, if not all of the free MMORPGs up to 2008, and these are the ones that stood out most.
