Re: Rising Force Online Goes Free to Play
The catch usually is that it's junk
. I gave Archlord a try when Hexus mentioned that it was free, and couldn't believe that anyone actually paid for it. |

Re: Rising Force Online Goes Free to Play
I bought this game when it came out, but I never played it because they were charging something ridculous. I think it was £7.99 per month exc. VAT.
I doubt I'd play it now, even if it's free. |

People are prepared to grind, but only when they know there's something worthwhile at the end of the slog. There's only enough mind-share for a few big MMOs, the rest might as well not bother. |

Re: Rising Force Online Goes Free to Play
I had a go today...still looking for an MMO which isn't click click ad nauseum. Will stick to playing NWN persistent worlds for now.
Still, it's good for nothing.
