Whoever says Eve Online is WRONG, that was the word grind fest oriented only game I've ever played, and it was given to me for free and I deleted it within 2 hours of playtime D: D:

Imagine Online: http://megaten.aeriagames.com/

It's like Pokemon. Only online and grittier. And it's also based on Shin Megami Tensei. Unfortunately, there are no evokers in this game.

Only free game I'm familiar with besides DDO and GW is FreeRealms, an SOE MMORPG with some entertaining quests and mini-games. http://www.freerealms.com/
And they just reached 5 million users [http://www.gamasutra.com/php-bin/news_index.php?story=24557]. Not bad at all!

Atlantica is the best one ive played so far.
This, oh dear god, this. I've yet to see such a good merging of tactical turn-based combat and MMORPG.

I'm big into Mabinogi these days. It's really weirdly balanced, but it's a whole heck of a lot of fun to play with friends. The experience of fighting your way through a tough dungeon that you're about twenty levels shy of being prepared for, then huddling around a campfire for home-cooked snacks and stories before the climatic boss battle in which everyone is likely to be killed can't be beat in my opinion.

Oh, and never ever play WoW on private servers. It's abyssmal.
How so?
Unpredictable downtime, abusive power mad GM's, risk of viruses and keyloggers(alot ask you to use their "launcher"), laggy (in comparison to blizz servers), half the skills won't work properly (notably Shaman totems and all pets - completely broken), Over the top gear that renders grouping (an important aspect of any MMO - why group when you can easily solo?) pointless, also, it's very very hard to get decent gear on those servers unless you "donate" for "vip gear", the community is non-existant due to very low populations on the servers, some skills have been broken so much that they are absurdly over powered, meaning that around 60-70% of a server will be 1-2 classes (whoevers more OP - seriously, go on any private server and count the amount of paladins and rogues) Auction Houses are either broken, or non existant, Quests are pointless (is most cases, replaced with Korean MMO style grind fests).

Sorry for the wall of text, but honestly, theres just so much wrong with them. The worst is when someone plays on a priv server then starts playing WoW properly, they're clueless, completely lost, but they forgo any sort of tutorial because in their eyes, they're experienced.

I got asked once by a level 17 why he was doing such low damage, after asking him to explain himself, he let it slip that "on the private server I played on, I did like 100k per hit". He had no skills in his skillbar , nor spent talent points, or anything like that. Private servers are the foundation of a very bad player, mainly because they're NOTHING like the real game.

Ragnarok Online.

Or Maple Story. And for those who think I'm crazy, it's awesome.

For those who don't know, think any MMO crossed with Rayman. That combination alone is made of win.
sorry for the double post but god damn you you had to say maplestory, whenever i read or hear that i instantly go off and become addicted to it.

also side not forgot to say if you like anime-ish games go with flyff

I'm going to have to agree with this, just started playing it about a week ago and it has to be one of the best free MMO's I have ever played.

Wait for the site to load and then click on one of the 6 buttons at the lower right screen. Click on wherever you live and download the game.

You might want to check out Sacrier [http://www.dofus.com/en/] (a class based around self-sacrifice).
Does Dofus still restrict non-member players though on the free servers?

Private servers are perfectly legal AS LONG AS the owner isn't making any money from it - if you were to pirate the game then play on a private server then thats a different question.

However I don't see why you would want to because they are reknowned for being majorly glitchty xD

I don't think that's changed recently. So you are free to roam everywhere but you can't talk to the NPCs to start quests outside the starting area.
