2 free to play mmo's you probably haven't heard of…

What I like about Rakion is that no matter what level one is, you will be able to compete with other player who may be a higher level that you are. One of the striking features of this game is that as you can summon your inner creature as your rage...

Oh i heard about it. played it and just left after first day. nothing really special or fun about it.

I'm pretty sure everybody has heard of Rakion, and it's not an MMO.

I've heard of Shaiya before, but I've never tried it.

Rakion is quite fun, but a bit limited and broken by the lags.

Has no life.

I remember playing gunbound back in my elementary years when softnyx and ijji was not in business. Rakion was fun for a week until it got repetitive to my friends and I.

[Black Maverick]

Yeah, I played in the Rakion beta back when I played Gunbound.

Lost interest quickly.

Looks surprisingly polished and good. Better animations than most any mmo really. But yeah probably laggy and soon boring.

While I gave both of these a spin, I have to agree with some of the comments above. The look better than some other f2p's I've tried in the past, I could see how the interest factor would diminish rapidly. One of the key selling points of a free to play title should be player engagement right from the get go. Since there's no initial investment from the players side, if the game doesn't grab you right away, it's a lost cause.
