Epic Fantasy Online games

Eternal Lands
http://www.eternal-lands.com

Free online game that has a great mix of fighting, role playing and skill development. One of the most appealing aspects of the game is the skills. You can learn how to make weapons, potions, magic spells, essences, clothing and much more. There are areas of the world that are designated as "PK" which means player-killer. These are areas for the more adventurous. There are also many areas where "PK'ing is not possible. So if you are peace loving and like to avoid combat with other players you can spend all your time in the safe areas.

 

Shadowbane

MMORPG with a focus on conflict and pvp fighting. This can be a very brutal world where only the strong or the cunning survive. Many possibilites in this world including the ability to build your own city complete with castle walls surrounding it. But beware, your city can be sieged and potentially destroyed by warring factions.

Final Fantasy XI

Incredibly beautiful and complex online world with a lot of possibilities. One of the most fascinating things about this world is the rhythms it takes. The phases of the moon and the changing seasons and days are very appealing. Some plants and trees only blossom at certain times, fish and animals are known to spawn or be more abundant at particular lunar phases. You get your own home that you can customize with a variety of things including furniture, plants and storage.

 

Ultima Online

This online game has been around for a long time. It is very complex and rich and has a lot to offer players. It has a vibrant economy and a lot of different things for you to do. This was the first online game that I played and it remains one of my favorites.
