Yeah, let the other two stipulate the VERY VERY FEW factor of what MMO's your looking at. Because your lucky to find a decent one with any of those qualities.
I'm not an mmo guru but I can think of 3 quickly off the top of my head, Ultima online, Mortal online, Lord of the Rings Online, and I'm pretty sure there are a lot more, but like the last guy said, if you want a GOOD mmo with these things, you're most likely going to just be dissapointed.
It really depends on your idea of crafting to be honest. LotRO has all those, SWG had those, CoH doesnt have mounts (unless you consider a slying boogie board a mount) but you can fly. ToR will have those and I also think Vanguard has those.

With not much else to go on your preferences. Try out Lord of the rings online. If you like the middle-earth setting you should enjoy it. The crafting system I find very enjoyable and housing whilst the system isnt perfect. is fun nonetheless. Mounts dont have a ton of variation of species. But mostly the armor your mount has.
if we would wait for that troll, OP would proly never get any answer
Lol, just because I hadn't given a straightforward answer yet doesn't mean I'm a troll. I was geniunely asking for more specifics so I COULD give him some suggestions, but it looks like other people have done that already.
Ok thank you,I will try The Lord of The Rings Online. I am fond of the fantasy genre,fighting monsters with swords and and magic and such. I also like those pretty fantasy worlds with dungeon caves with treasures.
By the way,I'm finacially poor so I have to to stick with tthe free to play mmos for now. I think that LoTRO fits my budget,is there any others above mentioned that are free too?

in that case i would proly suggest more vanguard:
it has FAR better crafting (imho)
it has better housing
on the other hand:
in lotro you will have house proly a lot sooner then in vanguard

runes of magic is f2p
istaria and wurm have f2p options with restrictions
(tho since you mention you like fantasy fights and dungeons then wurm proly isnt for you, it is more of the pure crafters game (it does have pve and on paid server also pvp, but it is kind of week))
edit:
i completely forgot: eq2 has now also f2p option with restrictions (but rather big ones)
I see some have suggested Runes of Magic. I would stay away from that game at all costs. That game is the biggest cash-grab pay-to-win game on the market, hands down.
Which mmorpgs has all 3 of the features of item crafting,player housing,and riding mounts included inside? Could someone name them?
Well the obvious EQ2,but i am waiting for ArcheAge,i can't support Smedley anymore,he is too crooked.
I think you should also look at meaningful crafting/housing and mounts.I think AA "might" do a decent job in those areas.
ArcheAge is in it's final 4th closed BEta,it lasts 80 days,then probably an open beta and thta is for Korea.../sigh.I think AA won't hit NA shores until at least mid of next year .../sigh.So idk maybe go play on the free EQ2x server [Freeport] until you see something better.
Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.

well, thats usually completelly up to you, i dont remember EVER paying anything in any f2p game i played, including RoM.

but then again, i usually play p2p games
You don't HAVE to buy from the cash shop in RoM, you're right, but if you want to be at all competitive and keep up with all the kids with mommy's credit card, you pretty much have to. Also, RoM is the absolute worst with gold-sellers. All I saw in chat was bots spamming gold for sale or just regular people talking about needing to buy more gold to get something.
But lets not derail the thread. Honestly, someone suggested EQ2 for you and I might have to agree. ArchAge is going to blow EQ2 out of the water when it hits North America, but for now it is probably your best bet.
Ok,I'll have a look at EverQuest 2. Vanguard has a free trial,but it isn't really free. Alright,I will avoid Runes of Magic,if you advise it. I'll pass on Istaria,because I couldn't see what their classes or races were.
Comments
You need to be more specific..... lots of MMO's have those these days.
Name 5 just to help the OP....Thank you.
Fixed that for you.
So you're telling me very very few MMO's have mounts, crafting, and housing? Don't make me laugh.
Back to the OP.... what exactly are you looking for in a game other than those three components?

Again, name a few for the OP....just to be helpful.

vanguard
lotro
eq2
ultima
wurm online
runes of magic
maybe istaria (i am not sure if it does have mounts)
out of those i would say only vanguard and wurm (and istaria) has "proper" housing, others has only instanced one afair
if we would wait for that troll, OP would proly never get any answer

True....Thanks for helping the OP

in that case i would proly suggest more vanguard:
it has FAR better crafting (imho)
it has better housing
on the other hand:
in lotro you will have house proly a lot sooner then in vanguard
lotro has a lot bigger population
lotro is f2p (more or less)
I don't think that has housing.
runes of magic is f2p
istaria and wurm have f2p options with restrictions
(tho since you mention you like fantasy fights and dungeons then wurm proly isnt for you, it is more of the pure crafters game (it does have pve and on paid server also pvp, but it is kind of week))

EQ2 is the best option for what you want
well, thats usually completelly up to you, i dont remember EVER paying anything in any f2p game i played, including RoM.
but then again, i usually play p2p games
