#1 May 12 2011 at 7:24 PM Rating: Decent
I need some games to try/play while we wait for the next month or so. Any suggestions of some good free games to play? Something similar to EQ is what Im looking for.

Thanks in advance.

I guess there's Evony/Evony II. It's kind of addictive for the first 24-48 hours.

Dungeons and Dragons Online and Lord of the Rings Online from Turbine are both free to play. WoW has a 10-day free trial that doesn't allow you to talk or trade.

The free trial of Mount & Blade allows you to get up to level 7 or so. Best mounted combat game, period.

Not entirely sure how functional it is, but Planeshift has been around for a very long time (they started well before WoW or EQ2 release). For a long time there was a small group of people barely making any progress with it, but in recent years they've been picking up in development.

Other than that look for games developed with Ogre3D, OpenTK, SlimDX, XNA, Crystal Space, and Irrlicht. Those are APIs that are all freely available to download and start working with tailored toward game development. Any indie game developer worth their weight will have heard of a couple of those and likely have tried them as well. XNA is perhaps one to be weary of, while it's a fine API, being a Microsoft product which opens up Xbox360 and Windows Phone 7 development it tends to attract a lot of lazy people that have no end of excuses on why they wont study the documentation but will actively copy paste code snippets they barely understand.

Perfect World is one.

Another one is Guild Wars. All you need for Guild Wars is a small investment for software. There are no monthly subscription fees however.

If you buy the WoW software for $30 you get another 30 days free and most of the features ... the 10 day free has a level cap of 20 per character... which is more annoying that the other restrictions...
