Rappelz Epic 4 Free Massive Multiplayer Online Roleplaying Game

Best Free MMORPG

Massive Multiplayer Online Role Player Games (MMORPGS) used to be for the "nerd" crowd. I know, because I was part of them. If you've never heard of one but have heard such names like "World of Warcraft" or "Maple Story" thrown around, MMORPGs are basically online versions of Lord of the Rings, except roles are played by you.

The most popular ones for pay now are Everquest and World of Warcraft. Guild Wars is free, but you still have to buy the software at a store near you. So if you ever wanted to try one out but didn't want to pop down money or get overrun by the professional players, where should you go next? Honestly, a lot of "free" games online in the MMORPG world are either too complex or too simple. Where can a person with reasonable computer skills jump into the MMORPG world without sacrificing too much time learning the ropes or money?

Enter Rappelz. Rappelz (located at rappelz.com) is a free MMORPG created by nFlavor. They offer several online games centered on various themes to include golf. Rappelz is becoming their most popular MMORPG. In Rappelz, there is a very comfortable balance between user-friendliness, graphics, and community support, three of the most important features in an MMORPG.

The Rappelz world more closely resembles the World of Warcraft and Everquest type of worlds than other MMORPGs like Maple Story or Flyff. Rappelz is based on three different races: Gaia, Asura, and Deva. Deva and Asura races were created to balance the light and dark, while Gaia was the Earth race that held them together. Each race is basically human-looking and has the same basic classes (warriors, priests, summoners) but each has different sets of skills according to the races. For instance, the Deva's fighting class is called Holy Warriors and have special attacks that have name types like "Divine Intervention" and "Holy Cross", where you strike your opponent in a cross-like fashion.
