Indeed, that why Also I found this text in Wikipedia to justify my opinion. I am really lazy tp write a full analysis for this subject.Denamic said:

There is several such quests still there, especially in Outland which was made old way they did quests. I think they started getting creative with quests in Wotlk, where they wanted to make daily quests less repetitive so you got there things like jousting and various vehicle based quests. When Cataclysm came, they remade entire Azeroth to this new (end since Wotlk improved) model. This is probably my main reason why Cataclysm replaced BC as my favorite expansion. It's kinda hard to say why are they better expect maybe vague terms like being more original and having better stories but if you want some factual numbers, during Vanilla, BC and Wotlk I made overall 2 max level characters, during Cataclysm I enjoyed new leveling so much I made 4 max level characters in that sole expansion.Smertnik said:How has the questing changed then? Somehow I'm doubtful that all the 'kill that monster x times' quests have been reworked.Vhite said:You haven't played WoW for a long time did you?
And don't get me wrong, if you don't like MMORPGs you aren't going to find there quests like in Oblivion or Bioware games but as far as MMORPG quests go, I think WoW got high above average.
Try Aion mate. It's pretty decent MMO with good pvp and pve stuff. Not that big limitations for free players far far less than in SWTOR. Pretty good graphics too.
GW2 is not F2P game. It's buy-2-play, you have to buy it to play it. F2P means completely free with no charge to start playing right now.Ranorak said:
I played DDO for a while, and of the F2P MMORPG models I've tried, it's one of the better ones. So I would go with it. If you already know D&D character creation from P&P, you will adjust to DDO's very quickly.
Vindictus: Developed by Nexon. It's not a true MMORPG, but the combat resembles Devil May Cry's and occurs in instanced dungeons. It's a nice mix of Action games, RPG's with a MMO aspect and (imo) has a pretty solid story. It runs on the Source engine and makes very good use of all of its tricks. Graphically it is very up to date, and the art-style is definitely Korean. It's free to download and play, and the things you can buy are mostly limited to xp boosts, dyes, costumes, etc.
If you plan on playing this, make sure you get the downloader for your region i.e. North America [http://vindictus.nexon.net/] or Europe [http://en.vindictus.nexoneu.com/NXEU.aspx] (or Korea, I guess)

Sadly my one co-op buddy has a Mac for a computer. That might complicate things a bit.JaceArveduin said:
I like it when they focus on cosmetic stuff for limitations, I'll definitely check it out.SweetShark said:
Thanks, I will. Never heard of it either, it's always nice to surprise yourself beyond the franchises you know.Arina Love said:
Also if you have a big amount of cash, the developers can create your own item that YOU can design ^^Johnny Novgorod said:
They mostly have, insofar as that's possible.Smertnik said:How has the questing changed then? Somehow I'm doubtful that all the 'kill that monster x times' quests have been reworked.Vhite said:You haven't played WoW for a long time did you?
However if you want an mmo that really doesn't involve killing x amount of y... feel free to invent it yourself.
On a different note, Path of Exile is NOT an mmo. It's a Diablo clone. Yes, you can see a lot of people in towns, but that's immaterial since the actual zones are 100% instanced. Towns are pretty much game lobbies from the online perspective.
It's essentially no different than having a public game in D3. It's not a bad game though.
It's not that I'm trying to be stingy, but I don't own a credit card (never did) and I've never gotten around paying for stuff online. To complicate things further, I'm in Argentina, which doesn't get me far in formularies.SweetShark said:
Nah, no problem, neither I would spend 1000 DOLLARS just to design a weapon!!!!Johnny Novgorod said:
I just saying what you can do in the game.
Not really. While the Turbine MMO's were PC only, when they put them on Steam, the games were also made available for Macs.Johnny Novgorod said:
The only thing that would hold you back is that Turbine went down yesterday for maintenance and hasn't come back yet.
Well.......if someone have a credit card and have a lot of money and don't mind give a big amount for that, yes, a lot of people actually.Johnny Novgorod said:
Me I am exacly the opposite. I alwasy trying to get games as cheap as possible.
Actually, if I remember right, someone paid 1000 dollars just to create a weapon base the MLP fandom:
Yep, if you are fun of the series, you will understand the references.
Not quite true F2P though, since there's the box cost. Same reason TSW can't count, regardless of how you feel about it.Ranorak said:
Turbine has the right idea when it comes to F2P, both DDO and LOTRO are erptty good, depending on what you want. If it hadn't gone the way of the dodo for merely being profitable instead of being highly profitable I would have said City of Heroes.
That ridiculously pervy loli-fest TERA has one of the most generous, appealing FTP models out there. They deserve kudos for doing it right.Johnny Novgorod said:
CoH had plenty of non-instanced content. GW1 and DDO were very much MMOs in name only. MMO-Lite. They were more like Diablo than, say, Everquest or WoW.Schadrach said:
