    Default What is the current "BEST" free MMORPG?

    I'm new to the boards and I realize these topics must be done to death but you all know that new MMORPGS are being released very often. As such, I'd like some input as to what the community here considers the best. Oh, and admins, please keep the flaming on this thread to a minimum please.

    As you said, your post is unfortunately well into the realm of cliche so I can really only offer the typical response. There is no best game, it's a matter of opinion. If by best you mean "most hyped" that would likely be DOMO and Seal Online sincethey both have been released/will be released this month in addition to RF Online because it just went from P2P to F2P. Really, the best way to decide if a game is popular or not is to see which games have the most topics about them and then check those topics: If you constantly see the words "overhyped" "grindfest" and "boring" it means people had high hopes but the game is bad, if you don't see too much of that then the population probably mostly agrees that the game is at least decent.

    MMORPG wise, I'd say the hype levels are indicating DOMO as the most popular.

    I love to see my point illustrated in real time.

    Guy-1-My favorite color is green.
    Guy-2-Green? wtf. Dude you must be ******ed blue is clearly the best color.
    Guy-1-I disagree.
    Guy-2-Well you're wrong.

    We should just have a sticky that says "If you are about to ask what the best mmorpg is." Then this.
    1. Read the forums for 5 minutes.
    2. See what the most popular games seem to be.
    3. Check out the websites for the games and see if the concept appeals to you.
    4. Try them out and see if you enjoy them.
    5. Come back to the forums and discuss how easy it was to develop your own opinion on something using the available information.

    I'd say from what I've played DOMO and Pi Story have potential. And as for what I've seen upcomming maybe Punch Monster and Dragon Nest. Then again it's all about what you are looking for. Some people are completely happy with Maplestory, RF or Gunz even though there are new games comming out in that category.

    Absolutly Lethal, never again shall I touch the Absinth.

    The end of the day, you could take everybody's input to this thread but the top MMORPG you could still absolutly despise. It's a matter of opinion really.

    In my opinion.. DOMO. Flying is neat (even tho it isnt original anymore), even grinding is fun, its the first game where I can farm mushrooms (lol), other trade skills are fun too... Overall it pwns.

    Yea tat's right calm down every1, no need to flame. Every1 got their own taste; some of them same and some not. Animeish or Realistic, 2D or 3D, Super Deformed or Real, Graphic or Gameplay, everygame got their own pros and cons; Just choose the best type of games we like then done.

    I'm not really sure why people bother arguing over these things. As was stated, some people prefer 2D while others prefer 3D. As far as stealing ideas goes, one could argue that every game that you ever killed a slime in copies Dragon Warrior, every RPG with a party system copies Final Fantasy, every mage in any game, movie, or book is a copy of Gandalf and Merlin, who in turn are copies of wizards before them. It's really pointless, everything borrows from everything else to some extent. The difference is in what it borrows and how it is implemented. Therefore no two games are exact duplicates and therefore trying to change someone's opinion of a game by insulting both them and their current favorite game is absolutely pointless since they obvious like their game for a reason. If you really want to change someone's mind, don't insult other games, instead give reasons for why you consider your favorite game the best; you may list something about it that others didn't realize it had, they'll try it, and they may actually switch to it... or not since what one person loves another may hate, but that doesn't matter because the whole point of this thread is to inform and convince the OP.
