I tried Runescape, but it was impossible to find anything, so I gave it up. I already have a Cities account, but the limited moves
don't make for the hours of soul-sucking obsession I'm looking for.
I downloaded Anarchy Online, however, and it's the shit so far. Exactly what I wanted. Building up my character's skills incrementally over hours and hours. And it runs pretty darn well on my creaky old laptop. It's incredibly unintuitive (is that even a word?), but there are scads of very helpful, polite people to walk you through the early parts of the game. There's backdrop of political intrigue and civil unrest, which has, apparently, been interrupted fairly recently by an alien invasion. Seems to be good people online so far, and, not having any background in MMORPGs, the shortcomings Randy pointed to are harder for me to spot, having nothing to compare AO with.
So, if there are any other cheap bastards out there who want the MMORPG experience without paying for it, I recommend this. I just had to install the latest drivers for my video card and it ran like buttah.
I'm Jakegnosis, Solitar soldier of the Clans. PM me. I'm on the MMORPG train, now, for better or worse. Excuse me, but I must log back in. You see, I need to find this cloak for this guy, and I want to upgrade my assault rifle, and, well, jeez, I'm this close to level 11... |
