    Cheap MMORPG ?

    http://www.play.com/play247.asp?pa=s...C&title=556081

    I wonder why its so cheap ?

    Is it because its "not that good" or is it because too many of the players are migrating to other MMORPG ?

    Yeap - I was lucky enough to beta test it and it was the most hideous pile of pap ever. Soundwise it was very "matrixy" but other than that it was a boring A to B walk with the occasional interaction with others ( usually by accident )

    its because the monthly fees are high and yes the game is apparently crap. there are so few possible people to look like that everyone you meet looks the same as you. rather annoying.

    Guild Wars has no monthly fee. Give that one a go. Not technically an MMO, but it's close.

    Yea it was :O

    Its flopped bad due to the incredibly bad timing of release (same time as WoW)


    I'm also on the Guild Wars boat... massive lifespan but not a true MMO so to speak. It's also good for those new people wanting to peek into the MMORPG world, as well as experienced. (And it loads like it's ass is on fire - quicker than my MSN takes to log in )


    HOLD ON I'm a bit tired. He isn't asking for a cheap MMO, hes asking why its cheap rofl

    £2.99 is my answer.

    If it's a "cheap MMORPG" you're looking for, try Anarchy Online - completely free for the basic version, and hugely engrossing if you can get into it!

    Another GW convert here.

    Don't really play it much, but I don't feel I'm loosing out by not playing because I'm not paying either Great game for just about all play styles.
