Tibia
Uses an interesting tutor system to help newer players get in the flow of the game. Was launched back in 1997. Tibia is free, but does have a premium account available.
Evony
Once known as Civony, Evony is an Addictive free online RTS where players build up cities and form alliances.
Guild Wars
A ton of gaming value here since there is no monthly subscription and Guild Wars plays like a MMORPG.
HoboWars
Definitely one of the most original RPGs yet. You play as a bum and interact with other bums.
Neverwinter Nights
From thousands of player-made modules to the possibility of creating a free MMORPG, NWN sets the standard for all other retail RPGs to follow. Like Diablo 2, age is preventing this game from being higher on the list.
Kingdom of Loathing
One of the funniest games on the entire Internet. Do not expect flashy graphics because KoL is all about satire and humor.
Pardus
Great space game where you can be a pilot, trader or pirate.
Rubies of Eventide
Basically the depth of a MUD with 3D graphics. The best game today for players who love to delve deep into an online RPG but prefer graphics over text. Has had periods of being offline.
Diablo 2
Simple game play that quickly satisfies a thirst for plenty of action and treasure makes Diablo a tough game to beat in the Online RPG realm. Throw in the online playability of Battle.net and you have the recipe for one of the greatest selling PC games of all-time. However, it can still not compete with the total gaming value of NWN.
Renaissance Kingdoms
Very deep online RPG with strong economic and political elements. You can run for a political office and the game's website will announce your victory if you are elected.
