Ragnarok online huh? That one was fun for about two months...but unfortunately got very old after a while. (R.I.P.- Lvl. 63 Rogue)
But as far as the new MMO's, I've had a my eye on Guild Wars for the past two months. Although it sounds good, I just can't picture how the game is going to work(They say levels don't matter?!). I watched the movies and they looked pretty good, and playing online for free is a plus as well. But, with a game of this nature it's gonna either be awesome from the get go or be doomed for immediate failure. I guess it all depends on the finished product.
One that also could be shaping up good is Matrix Online. It looked pretty crappy about three months ago, but since SEGA got the license, it's starting to look alot better. The gameplay looks like a faster version of City of Heroes and the whole choose your own story thing sounds fun too. The coolest thing about it is the extreme character customization and interesting way that the story will actually include players in the game. But just like Guild Wars, this is a formula that could be great, or go bad very easily.
