So, I've been trying to avoid paying money for games lately and have thus turned to free mmo's to save myself money. This one ( atlantica.ndoorsgames.com/center/pds/pds.asp) is particularly interesting, as the combat is all turn-based, and you hire mercenaries to fight with you. It's very final fantasy-ish, your mercs get xp and level up with you and you can upgrade your items to less shitty quality. There's crafting, but it's not really crafting per se, since you have to fight to finish crafting recipes. But the PvP is interesting; since it's turn based, there's not a whole lot of button mashing. Each type of mercenary fills a particular role, and some attack multiple enemies, depending on the formation the enemy units are in. Things get especially interesting when you join groups with other players to fight mobs, as everyone controls their particular units. Anywho, if anyone's interested in meeting up with me, I'm on the server Delphi, and of course, since i can never seem to name my chars brian_black, my ingame is Crozeph. |

HEHE! You are definitely married! Looking to avoid paying money for games, let me guess this is a point of contention with the wifey, therefore she is very happy when you find free entertainment?

Actually, my wife's very understanding of my videogaming, it's more a matter of just buying a house and having zero money.

There are tons of other free games out there =O
better than those shitty mmos
Trackmania.com- its a racing game but it looks awesome and is a lot of fun
Also Emulators, i for one am replaying through all of my favorite childhood games (Zelda, Banjo Kazooie, Donkey Kong 64), lots of good stuff.
Also Quakelive.com- Free quake arena woot woot!
There is a ton of fun to be had for free!
unless you like those boring, grind'y, LARPing games.

I checked it out, it is very final fantasy-ish. Don't know if it will stick with me, but I'll try it sum moar.

I played through as a Pastamancer, kept the free dry noodles (forgot it's name) spell, then started again as a sauceoror. I have an orange peel hat (looks like a head crab) that gives me serious resistance to all elements, it is pretty sweet.

I've been enjoying Atlantica so far. My name is Dunsinane if you want to look me up. I'm going to try to convince Brian to do some teamwork stuff here in the future, when I catch him in level.

Ooh, Urban Dead, haven't played that for a long time. If you want other suggestions...
Nexus War - A more advanced Urban Dead, Angels vs. Demons vs. Neutrals. All multiplayer, no game controlled foes.
Metroplexity - KoL-esque, with a unique card based combat system
Mutant Freaks of Nature - A top down Post-Apocalypse RPG.
Secret Society Wars - KoL-esque Adult's Only Sci-Fi game with factions that compete to be the strongest before the game resets, which it does a 2+ times a year.
ForumWarz - a game in which you hang out on Internet Forums where the object is to try and take them down. A interesting story, the first chapter is free, the second you have to donate for, but you can keep playing and gaining XP in the first game after you finish the story content.

Anywho, if anyone's interested in meeting up with me, I'm on the server Delphi, and of course, since i can never seem to name my chars brian_black, my ingame is Crozeph. Starting a toon on Delphi, and seeing whether I can drag the other half into at least one game that I play. In-game is SoraMitsukai. |
