Gaming has become an expensive hobby due to increasing system requirements and hardware prices soaring.

Here are ten MMOs that you can play on entry-level PCs and still get the full experience.

Logic, my dear, merely enables one to be wrong with great authority.
if its still up (even if its being managed by fans) i should give it a try.
also should mention eq1
RIP Ribbitribbitt you are missed, kid.

Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and not clothed.

Oh... And you didn't mention EVE Anywhere in this post, which seems like the ideal place to do so... Did you even know it existed? Did you bother googling each of these to find out? Hmm...
To be honest, I could go on. But EQ2 is not easy on your PC. Were these games even tested? Or was this just a way to talk about games that hadn't been tagged in a blog post for a month or so?
EverQuest is seeing a resurgence with their TLP servers. A new expansion was also just announced. And it's THE game that every other game has aped off of, just to exist. There's something alluring and charming about the game that started it all.
And again, EQLive, TLP servers & Project 99 all meet the requirements of this article by running great on lower end machines. *Much* better than EQ2 especially.
Also, everyone knows EQ > EQ2. Just because it's the second game doesn't make it the more "current" or relevant game.
Agreed 100%. EQ > EQ2 in every way but especially in the confines of this article's logic. Especially when you consider EQ's TLP servers and Project 1999 as available options when playing EQ.
EQ2 is a 20 year old mistake that should have never happened. Can we finally course correct? I mean, hats off to anyone that plays and enjoys it; do your thing. But original EverQuest is the real deal when it comes to player consideration of the franchise.
It will run but the bugs kill the fun of it.
People still play it so presumably the bugs don't entirely kill the fun of it for everyone.
Fifth one down, even has a picture, did you even read the article?
We had Empires run by Emperors, we had Kingdoms run by Kings, now we have Countries...
Man I forgot all about eq2 doing that! One of the most bizarre things about that game really lol. I remember people being so mad they had these monster gpus and couldn't run it decently lol.
That being said, eq and eq2 both have had a lot of beginner friendly updates to help people play catch up, eq1 definitely being the better of the two but eq2 is more "current" with the way it plays compared to 1. Honestly i miss them both, ill have to play both and get caught up once i get the stories done in both gw2 and ff14.. too much backlog right now lol.
