I can’t believe someone even had to ask that question.

Have you compared the graphics on the two games?

If you really want to have fun with it, play 1 Priest and 5 mages all by yourself. That’s some hilarious stuff!

(You’re going to need a really killer computer to do it though, and do your homework to find out how it’s done.)

The dual class system got mega nerfed. You can no longer buff yourself with one class, change to the other, and buff & play the game.

You’re full of crap. The most important item in the item shop is not a mount, it’s a clean power stone, with which people make super godlike items.

You can sort of compete if you’re not spending real life money on the game, but you have to make TONS and TONS of characters, get them to level 10, make Tier 6+ mana stones for your other character, and delete the characters, repeat.

This game is 100% garbage. There is a bug in it that causes the character you play the most to crash out of the game and the unattendant gamemasters and support staff (Icarii told us there are only 3 people working for the US side) will take over 2 weeks to fix the character, if they fix it at all.

Thanks for the credit, but we didn’t make the game. It should remain free, though.

Knight OnLine was THE laggiest and easiest game every.

All of the people and servers were in Turkey, causing mass lag here. Notice how you’d always get hit while running away?

Yeah. I mean, I played it, I loved it. Looking back now it was not that fun for English player.

+7 Dual Meat Cleavers ftw. >_>

My buddy was showing me Runes of Magic so I installed it. It’s actually really really fun. I like the battle system because it’s much more interactive, but when you lag, it really sucks.

It’s worth checking out.

Jeez, “Rise of the Demon Lord” doesn’t sound cliche at all… Not to be a jerk, but I mean can’t you pick a better name? I’m still going to try this out though, Knight OnLine was a blast, before it was smothered by cheaters.

They did the item shop extremely well, nothing from the item shop is gamebreaking, as the most important thing from the item shop is the mounts, which you can also “rent” in game using tokens you get from completing daily quests. Also you can purchase Diamonds(the item shop currency) with gold in game. Its a high currency conversion but it can be done, which leaves the door open to you never having to use real cash in Runes of Magic if you see fit.

Its a great game that has a ton of things that make you have to remind yourself alot of times, “Wait, I am playing this for free?”

How does Runes of Magic’s mini-transaction system work? Are there game-breaking items for sale, or is there a chance that players who spend no money at all on the game will be competitive?

Played it for a while, and I must admit – for a game with those graphics it’s actually a lot of fun.

It gets boring quickly though, once you’re on a decent level and done with the quests, all that remains then is repititive training.

You’ll still have to pry RuneScape from my cold dead hands. IMO, it’s the best MMORPG out there, even the free version.

[...] News Sources wrote an interesting post today onHere’s a quick excerptLet’s be honest. There are a ton of free internet multiplayer games out there, a lot of them coming from the MMORPG genre, and far from all of them are able to match their retail competitors. A lot of these games are great fun, but they still feel like a free product. But then something else comes along — a magical experience presents itself and defies almost anything you’ve seen before.
