War of the Immortals
http://woi.perfectworld.com/

War of the Immortals is a free fantasy based Action MMORPG with a lot of depth and elements not seen in your typical MMO.
Here are some of the features I can list off hand:

~ Level cap of 120.
~ Dual class availability (Lvl 90+).
~ Multi-boxing encouraged (I run 6 games at the same time).
~ Built in "Auto Potion" and "Combat Aid" systems (Used for AFK farming and other purposes).
~ Very extensive pet system (Look it up for better info on this).
~ Complex gear upgrading systems (Fortifying, Awakening, Gemming, Infusing, Starword embedding).
~ Interactive guild or "Legion" system (Members complete dailies that add resources to your Legion).
~ Vendor-style trading system.
~ Crafting systems.
~ Daily events.
~ EXP boosts.
~ PVP.

..and plenty more! WOI is based on a mix between Norse and Greek mythologies, any fans of either would absolutely love this game.
If you play this game and want to comment about it, feel free! If you're newer to the game and you want to add me in game shoot me a PM!

This games natural trading systems would play well with JSP and forum gold in my opinion.

PROS:

- Fun take on traditional classes but with their own unique style and depth (I recommend looking up a video of their character creation).
- Gear is heavily modifiable and interactive (parts move and look to be alive), they also look GREAT.
- PvE is not glorified, monsters spawn in masses and they are fairly easy to kill (they exist solely to allow heavy grinding/farming).
- World PvP and dueling is encouraged above all, instanced PvP events also exist.
- Level cap of 120 (adds to the extreme depth of the game).
- Having a combat pet is a major aspect of the game (they level, have skills and can be ascended).
- Daily events that can be completed for exp, coin and other rewards (fun incentives to play often).
- Built in botting system to allow for afk farming (this ADDS to the integrity of the game as odd as it may sound).
- Multiboxing is encouraged and highly practical (I love grinding for Soul Gear with my 3 characters)!
- The game is themed after Norse and Greek mythology, as well as constellations and astrological signs.

Oh...and it's free!

CONS:

- Not the best graphics, but also not the worst at all.
- I don't hate the controls/viewpoint, I've grown into it...but I could see it turning others away from the game.
- Questing loses it's relevance beyond level 40 - 75, wish there was more incentive to continue the quest lines other than to simply complete them..
- Instanced dungeons are only worth it for daily quest rewards, would be nice if there was more of an EXP incentive beyond the quests to go in them.



~ Here is my Level 95 Ranger wearing full Level 75 Soul Gear all +7 fully awakened etc. I included her bow in the pic so you can see what it looks like.



~ Gotta love my Level 94 Champion, she has full Level 75 Soul Gear too but she's not completely gemmed out and everything.



~ This is my Level 84 Harbinger also with full Level 75 Soul Gear!

everything looks nice until you get to the gameplay, watched gameplay and lost interest

Whatever can be bought, can also be acquired for free through the game itself (also nothing bought gives you an exclusive advantage over others). Plus leveling beyond 90 is hard work, can't exactly pay for levels.
Definitely a game that involves grinding though, but that's what the built in botting system is for. Grinding takes little effort.

The gameplay isn't any worse than other "click to move" games in my opinion. The good thing about WOI is that it has auto-pathing built in, quests and npcs have links that you click on to make your character auto run to locations.
Once you get the hang of WOI's click to move/auto path controls, it ends up being quite smooth even for PvP.

I recommend actually trying the game yourself before judging.

Every Perfect World game is like this. I think torchlight is at least different but I don't even want to give this company 5bux during a steam sale.

I hate gems that plays automatically for u (for free or if u buy such feature), move ur char from point A to the point B, attacks automatically etc. So games like this, Aura Kingdom, Wushu, Archlord, Lineage, AoC, Shaiya(or whatever its called), and thousand other crap games are outside of my interest. There are probably at least 100+ such games. They are all more or less the same. I seriously tried this game some time ago and i got bored of its gameplay in half hour. Seriously. Bring me something fresh, not just "another of this kind".
