When did you start playing MMORPGs?

hmm, maybe the first time Ragnarok release in our country, forgot what date is was though but i think it was in my high school days...

 

I feel like I definitely got a late start with MMOs. I didn't start my first one until I was a senior in college. I mean I played with a friend's Runescape account once when I was younger, but that was for five minutes and doesn't really count. I have been enjoying Ryzom now for the past year though. I don't think I'll ever stop.

 

I think my first was when I was 6 or 7. Had a one week free trial of Toontown by Disney. Then I moved on to more... Violent MMOs... Such as Maplestory.

 

1998 - Ultima Online.

Best times in MMORPG history.

 

Is Ultima Online still going strong 12 years later? I don't know why it never went f2p.

 

Ultima Online is only going strong on player-run servers which indeed are free-to-play and legal.

The best UO shard is UO:Second Age. It is exactly like UO in 1999 with mechanics, gameplay, monsters, freedom, worlds ect.
Good population, community, and fun = )

UO never gets old, I've been playing it since 1998 lol. I recommend this server for anyone who never played UO, for those who did and for those who want to play a real sandbox without restrictions, item-based pvp and lame grinding.

 

How can a private run server of a pay game be legal?

 

The reason why it's not illegal is because UO was created before the law went in.

from 1997 all the way till now, EA/OSI have never busted any player-run servers.

It's legal trust me, there's nothing they can do about it unlike WOW.
