Review of the Week
Each week GameOgre.com chooses a notable review by a Review
Directory member. To be chosen, a review must be at least one of the
following: informative, well-written, and/or entertaining. This
week's review is on Dungeons and Dragons Online by Catica. Here are a couple of
excerpts from the review, "Once you get started, you will
instantly find yourself immersed in a lush rich virtual world.
Stunning graphics and scenery which can be adjusted to optimize your
game play and run on even the oldest computers. Quests are aplenty
with in-game tips, clues, and narrative to guide you on your way." and "The
majority of the quests are instanced based allowing deeper story
lines, more complex scenarios, and a different experience each time
you run the quest. Along with the standard mobs to kill, you will
find puzzles, traps, hidden passages and rooms, mazes, and more in
your dungeons."

What is a Free
MMORPG?
A free MMORPG is a massive online game that allows you to
play on an ongoing basis without having to pay a
monthly subscription. However, a game needs
to make money in some way in order to survive. To
make money without monthly fees, different MMOs have come up with
various strategies.
Anarchy Online
uses in-game advertising, while Guild Wars uses
retail purchases and RuneScape offers a premium
version along with its extremely popular free one.
A growing trend by several of Korean MMORPGs is to
offer no download or subscription fee but to
charge for in-game items instead. Yet another
strategy is to charge for access to special areas
of the game.
The good news for
players is that these different strategies are
allowing nice 3D MMORPGs like Sword of the New
World, Rappelz, and Perfect World to be offered
without monthly fees instead of having to rely
solely on text-based online RPGs for free online
role-playing.
