Nostalgic MMO

What MMO games did you used to play long time ago?
Mention the ones you played and quit.

For me:

Mu Online: Played this game for about 4 years, i played when Webzen was still in charge and when Lost Tower 7 was the last map.
Spent a huge amount of time playing it in my school years, boy it was fun, such a nostalgia.
Its been a few good years since i played it, all the friends gone... and the game changed too much.

FlyFF: Yes i know, so dont tell me anything. But i still had a freaking good time playing it for about a 2 years with breaks.

NosTale: Played the beta, and than played a little bit more, and than quit.

Also played many other, it was for a short time, so i dont remember.

How about you?

Star wars galaxies... back in the day.

Good times... good times.

I kinda miss it. I would totally get into TOR but i really dont wanna spend 15 bucks a month.

Probably get flamed for this, but vanilla WoW brings back great memories.

Asheron's Call 1 & 2 - I enjoyed the 2nd one more.

Gemstone III & IV - a MUD, but nonetheless it was and still is my all time favorite online RPG experience. Played it for over a 15 year span (1994 thru 2009) - off an on towards the end (last 4 years).

I was like you trying a lot of the free ones before I tried P2P ones. They were technically open betas, but some of them lasted years in beta.

Mu Online - I remember the first time I could afford a full set of Dragon +6 armor or whatever it was that started glowing. Also the sound of bless jewel dropping and everyone scrambling to steal it.

Kal Online - I didn't get too far in this game but remember you got an egg that could hatch into a pet. It was weird because the egg gained experience over time as long as you were logged in. This meant everyone just afked 24/7 to get the most xp.

Risk Your Life - I played this one the longest. I got to level 60 or so on the Malaysia server before switching to the American closed beta. Then I was a volunteer GM for a few months. They switched to RYL 2 right before release. It was a lot better than RYL 1, but WoW had already released and was better in pretty much every way.

Flyff - Another one I didn't play a whole lot. I got to around level 40 before it started to get really grindy. I remember an area with a bunch of pumpkin head guys. I liked the original skill system. It was like Elder Scrolls where the more you use a skill, the better it got. Then they changed it to old Everquest style.

After that I mostly just played WoW. Ever since 2005 I have been working and can afford the monthly fees. I don't play WoW regularly anymore but still sub occasionally for a month or two. In between WoW I still tried out some free ones to see if they could compare like Runes of Magic, LOTRO, and DDO. None of them kept me interested though.

My big WoW memories were Tarren Mill vs Southshore especially during Halloween, Alteract Valley when it was still epic, completing my Dungeon Set, and going through the Dark Portal the first time. I know I've forgotten a bunch of stuff. Just exploring the whole world when it was fresh and new was awesome. I also played Wrath and a little Cataclysm, but can't remember anything really memorable from them.

EverQuest. Used to dual-box with my druid and monk. Got both of them epics and then made a shadow knight to tank for my guild. Got him an epic. Never played the game past the expansion packs that raised the level above 60, though.

Ho man.. +6 armors... i remember those ! but they start glowing from +7 not +6 (not sure )... and the sound of jewels... it was sofrustrated when it was a Soul drop and not a Bless drop. Also loved the ice place (dont remember the name) with the yeti monsters.

I loved the pumpkin place in FlyFF, you made me wanna go back and play it again... loved this game because it had a megical feel to it. My maximum lvl was 62 and around that i quit...

Dont have time for all this though.

I just found out that mu online is based on a book named "the lost continent of mu"

This is pretty cool maybe ill pick it up :O
