Typically when I see a free MMORPG a few things come to mind. Endless grinding, lack of skills to use and purchase, player run market that is out of control and if the game offers PvP then its completely unbalanced. Runes of Magic have none of the above. If you were to cross World of Warcraft, Everquest and LOTRO into one game, you would get Runes of Magic. Here is a small list of what Runes of Magic has to offer...
  • Guild and Guild Management
  • Guild Housing
  • Player Housing
  • 6 Man Group Dungeons
  • Raid Group Dungeons
  • PvP Dungeons
  • Guild PvP
  • Dual Class
  • Ability to Learn All Crafting Proffessions

I could go on, but I do not want to spoil it for any potential future Runes of Magic gamers. The greater part of what this game has to offer is best left to be discovered by the players! No need to feel rushed either since this is a free MMORPG. You never have to get that feeling of forcing yourself to play to get your monies worth.

Graphics:

The graphics aren't going to impress anyone who has been in the MMORPG scene. If graphics are something you are really into, this is definitely the weakest link! The graphics will remind you of World of Warcraft. If you have ever played World of Warcraft everything might feel a little nostalgic. However, if you're used to MMORPG's such as Everquest or Eve, then the graphics might disgust you to no end.

The graphics are decent enough to keep players enthralled and there aren't to many graphic glitches. With it being a free MMORPG, you really get a bang for the buck....that you don't spend. It on par with most 'high end' free MMORPGs. But again, if outdated graphics are a big hang up for you, you probably want to avoid this game.

Content:

The amount of content in the game is simply astounding. In total there are about six crafting professions that all players can start leveling up from level 1. As you progress through the game, you will find enough quests to choke a mule! Even if you find yourself hitting a wall by not being able to find quests (highly unlikely) you can still do up to 20 daily quests a day.

While you're not questing or crawling through the various dungeons of the game, you can take sport in some PvP. Random duels or organized guild battles is all included.

Perhaps your a lover and not a fighter. Perhaps you would rather spend most of your time decorating your house and making things look clean and tidy. Not only do get a house (with no effort and free of charge) you can also fill it all sorts of furniture and you can even increase the size of your home.

Overall:

Runes of Magic is hands down the best free MMORPG. If you are looking to for the immersion of a deep MMORPG but cant afford the monthly bills, Runes of Magic is the free MMORPG for you. Stop waiting around the start playing this free MMORPG today! You will never find a dull moment, even the community is great and always friendly.
