    Hello, I am looking to get my MMORPG on, with my new laptop.
    I don't feel like spending money, and I only have x3100 integrated graphics.

    Could I get some recommendations for good, free-to-play MMO's, with low graphical requirements?

    I've been looking around for awhile but can't find any solid reviews for a few of these games...

    Thanks for the help!

    Runescape, Knight Online

    Those are the only 2 that I know of. They're second class to WoW though.

    Hi,

    Here's a full list, check out Shadowbane, Granado Espada and Regnum Online. I heard they are popular, especially Regnum Online. Haven't played them though :eek:

    Well, although Guild Wars isn't free. It's not that expensive at all, Prophecies is around $20, and there are no monthly fees.

    May also wanna check out Archlord or private servers for Ragnarok Online. Archlord still needs work and Ragnarok online is dated, but has good gameplay.

    Maplestory (I wouldn't recommend it though, it can get way too addicting, I wasted a year of my life on this game), 2 moons.

    I dunno why i feel like i'm gunna catch flak for this but, I second Guild Wars.

    Alot of people find it repetitive and people love to argue GW vs WOW. Well I'm not here for random acts of fanboyism or anything like that. I'm just going to say that I myself enjoy guild wars a lot. I have spent over 400 hours on it in the last year. (I have all 4 versions).

    I know other people who have spent over 1000 hours on it since its been out. I am not going to sit here and argue whats the best game because its all really a matter of preference ..
