Hello guys!
I'm about to find a great fantasy MMORPG to record that's not too hard for solo, based mostly on PvE, with not too hard mechanics (about skill usage, equip etc.) and (if it exists :rolleyes:) not (too*) PAY to WIN.

I'm not a real expert about these type of games, I tried the old Cabal (I don't know why, but I love it), SWTOR (quite impossible in solo), Shaiya and Aion (didn't like them).

*: I already know that basically every free to play are pay to win, but some games, not too much(y) (Y)

World of warcraft, you can play up to a super high level without paying a single dime, and you can attempt to solo dungeons if you're brave enough ^^

I said free to play D: For what I can remember, WoW it's a "pay monthly or play another f*****g game" :(
I just told you, it's free to play up to level 80, it doesn't cost a penny. They used to be 1-20 free, then 1-60, and now 80 :p Things change over time. Rift is free to play now, but I don't know how many people watch MMO games.

Star Wars the old Republic is a great one that has improved a lot since release and has a lot of players.

TERA is another great one.

Wow being free up to lvl 80 now is pretty much WIN though.

I used to play WoW a ton when I was younger. It's a great game to start playing with your friends ^^ If you can manage to record it as well, get ready for some fun moments!

Oh sorry then :p I remembered that "free till lv 20" thing. I think I'll give it a try, I've always wanted to test it

I can suggest Blade and Soul which I play a lot atm. You can play it for free. : )

Nice, what else you can tell me about Blade and Soul? About difficulty (learning to play and in game) and about "pay to win"?

No worries, just wanted to give you some opportunities to play it a little. It's honestly a blast to play ^^

I did not find it difficult at all, it is grindy like any MMO. The combat is more action oriented, Monster-hunter esque, timing and movement are important. I didnt get too far into it because life got in the way (shool/work). What drew me to it is the over the top character and gear designs.

Would you recommend that game for people to record content on it? I always have the difficulty in figuring out what direction to take. What can he record if he goes solo?

I tend to solo in MMOS including wow myself and yes TERA is VERY soloable. Last time I checked the gunner class is the way to go because pet/heals. As far as what direction to go in solo-oriented content seems to make the most sense. Lots of people play that way Solo-ing guides/tips/how to solo such and such quest. Lots of people are searching for F2P recommendations so best F2P mmos 2016 video could do well, I say go for it and record the games that you enjoy.

Making guides would be a wonderful addition indeed ^^ Thanks for your insight Gdalf, I'm sure that boyka can make an educated decision on MMO's now :p

Thx a lot both of you :D
I'm gonna test both Tera and Wow and see (even if game like these could change a lot in near future and leveling up) and I'll if it's a good choice to record them (since time it's not much and I must be really selective :confused:).
But at least I could spend some of my freetime on one of them to repress my "MMO longing" :rolleyes:

You may have heard of Runescape? Yeah that game does still exist xD you can try that out as it is still an amazing game. You can play quite far in until it starts to get hard for F2P players but then you might be willing to pay £5 a month for a membership.

Think it's rather easy, it's a bit fancy and lots of things going on, but they have nice tutorial that stretches over time as you level and learn new things. Easy to play, hard to master I would say. c: And as I know isn't there any pay to win, as it most cosmetic and boost things (like exp boosts) that you can buy, nothing that make you stronger than others. : )
