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 Dragon Oath by Fanta. Here are a couple of excerpts from the review, "Dragon Oath has an emphasis on team play, however you won't be majorly disadvantaged playing solo. Groups of up to six members are perfect for playing with friends, or others in the Dragon Oath community. Guilds allow for a close community of players to chat, quest, do events and get stronger together." and "Although primarily focused on PvE (player vs. environment) Dragon Oath has PvP (player vs. player) free zones, duels, team battles and even guild wars to fulfill all your PvP enjoyment. However, if PvP is not your thing, there is no need to worry. Most zones are safe due to punishment for player killing and all cities are completely safe."

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.
