Smite is a MOBA style game like DOTA 2 or League of Legends with the unique feature of being played from third person. The goal of the game is the same as other MOBAs with the primary game mode featuring 5 vs 5 teams trying to destroy each other's towers and base. The standard MOBA roles are in place such as support, ganker, carry etc. The third person perspective is a nice twist and makes you feel as if you are the actual god. All of the skills including auto attacks are skill shots, requiring you to aim your target. Definately worth checking out. RuneScape takes place in the world of Gielinor, a medieval fantasy realm divided into different kingdoms, regions, and cities. Players can travel throughout Gielinor via a number of methods including on foot, magical spells, or charter ships. Each region offers different types of monsters, resources, and quests to challenge players. You can play as part of the Sith or the Republic as one of eight classes including Trooper, Jedi Knight, Jedi Consular, Smuggler, Bounty Hunter, Sith Warrior, Imperial Agent, and Sith Inquisitor. It is much closer to the gameplay of Diablo II rather than Diablo III, which in my opinion is a good thing. The game features great graphics and six character classes which include the Marauder, The Ranger, The Witch, The Duelist, The Templar and The Shadow. One of the coolest features of this game is the ability to fly. Eventhough you can only glide in certain area, there are other areas where you can fly freely. The classes in the game follow the standard RPG archetypes. The graphics are very high quality and there is a large amount of content in the game to explore. Explore worlds, take on missions and lead your crew. You participate in space based combat as well as ground based combat. The available classes are Tactical which focuses on squad tactics and combat, Engineering whcih focuses on shields, power, and firearms mods, and science which specializes in techs such as tractor beams. The three different ship types are Cruiser, Escort, and Science Vessel. It draws from its namesakes Neverwinter Nights. The combat in the game is more action based than most MMORPGs. You can block incoming attacks and maneuver around the battlefield while timing attacks for greatest effectiveness. The graphics are solid and for the most part the pay store items are not gamebreaking like many other MMOs. It features five classes which fit the standard MMO archetypes. The tank class is a Guardian Fighter which is very durable fighter class which is focused on blocking and absorbing damage. The Trickster Rogue class is the melee DPS class which is focused on manuverability, stealth and dual wielding. The Great Weapon fighter is the heavy hitting melee class. There is also the Control Wizard is the DPS mage class and the Devoted Cleric class. The production values in this game are quite solid, looking at it would remind you of playing World of Warcraft. You are allowed to allocate stat points in this game, which is nice for a free MMO. Like most games of this sort you will spend a lot of time grinding. However, Allods tries to be more story driven and attempts to drive your leveling through its quest system. You will still be repeating quests over and over, but its an alternative to straight grinding. Once you reach a certain point you can have your own ship which allows you to travel around the game world participate in ship to ship combat. Overall, relative to other free to play games, this game is a cut above in terms of quality, so its definitely worth a try. The game features fast paced combat with each hero being able to carry two ranged or melee weapons at a time. The main drawback of the game is that you are limited in the time you can play in dungeons each day without purchasing additional play time. You can choose from 5 races and 8 classes. The graphics quality in the game is very solid when compared to other free MMOs. At level 10 you get to choose from a variety of jobs such as potion making. There are also mounts and pets available to you as you progress through the game. Overall a solid game worth checking out if you enjoy MMOs. The graphics in Eden Eternal have a very Anime style feel. You unlock new classes as you level up through the game. Each branch has two to three playable classes. Overall, the game has a cool art style and variety of character development paths making it a great pickup. The classes follow traditional archetypes, including Warrior, Thief, Magician, and Archer. You can specialize within your class as you level up. The action gameplay system allows you to dodge attacks and make cool attacks using the combo system, this adds a layer of skill not seen in most other MMOs. The vast variety of visual choices means that most heroes you encounter will have their own look. The graphics in the game are top notch as this used to be a paid game. There are 13 different power frameworks each with many powers to choose from, you can tailor your hero to suit your specific tastes, everything from martial arts to sorcery. For a free to play game its definately worth a try. You have the option of playing the game through a downloaded client or the web browser. Once you start leveling up your character you can improve your ship and make cosmetic upgrades. There are a variety of quests ranging from the standard kill x amount of y to escort missions. The graphics are very high quality, the only drawbacks to the game are traveling between locations can take sometime and loading times can be somewhat annoying. It is an MMORPG featuring everything you expect from a commercial MMO including top notch graphics and high production values. The free edition has a level cap of 65 and a few other limitations but there is still hundreds of hours of content available. A decent pick if you dont mind the limitations. The game features a unique dual class system. A nice feature is that you can earn diamonds, which you would normally buy in the cash shop, by selling items on the marketplace. This is better than most free to play MMOs where if you dont have real cash, you are at a big disadvantage. The graphics and variety of content in the game is top notch. LOCO provides an innovative action game concept in an outstanding game design. The 3C system consists of your main character, the Anima, and the Giga.

Easy to learn, challenging to master - 'Bloodline Champions' is just as much fun for the casual player as it is for the hardcore gamer. An evil entity known as Cabal decimated the once prosperous Nevareth with a fury and destruction never seen before. The land was left barren, with survivors scattered across the land; all hope seemed lost. Amidst the devastation, seven great masters rose up, wielding the ancient abilities of the Force Power. Their teachings shielded the survivors from the CABAL and allowed them to rebuild. Centuries later, man had all but forgotten their oppressive beginnings and the teachings of the seven masters. For the next thousand years, people have lived in peace, but Cabal is conspiring a new evil again to cleanse the land once more. It is breeding a child to be the new king of the people, and so once again devastation may ensue.

I really enjoyed playing this game, it has a good story that will keep you wondering what is coming next. A bleak vision of the future was imagined, where mind control and medical science combined forces to repress the populace. Leading comic artist, Dave Gibbons, joined the design team to visualise this desperate landscape. The result, released in 1994, was the cult classic Beneath a Steel Sky. Your goal in the game is to help the human race fight the threat of the evil Ur-Quan. The game features 24 unique alien races which you can interact with, each with its own personality. Some of the aliens will help you on your quest and join your alliance while others won't be so cooperative. Throughout the game you will mine for resources, build ships, fight in space combat, and explore an open ended galaxy. The original game was called Star Control 2. The Ur-Quan masters is a remake of the original with improvements in several areas. This is one of the best games of all time, if you haven't played it... It took me me tons of hours to complete. The style of the game is reminicent of old school SNES RPG games. The story in the game is very interesting and entertaining, much more than what you would expect from a free RPG. If you enjoy RPG games with turn based battle systems, definately check this one out.
