Saga of Ryzom Online

Saga of Ryzom Online.

"Saga of Ryzom" is a Free to Play 3D Fantasy Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (MMORPG). Players earn experience and gain levels by eliminating monsters and completing various quest , your advancement is measured on a skill tree.The main feature of the game is there are no classes to choose from, players can advance in any tree as far as you'd like. Plus the game also released it's expansion pack (The Ryzom Ring or R²) which provides tools that allow you to access Ryzom's creatures, buildings, maps and missions to create your own events and scenarios.

Ryzom was released earlier this year in Europe, so it's surprising that the game is still missing so many promised features. It's set in a colorful, original setting that's thankfully devoid of typical fantasy-world creatures and characters. The setting has an intriguing background plot that involves the humanoid races recovering from being overrun by a horde of marauding Starship Troopers-ish insects called the Kitin. There are four playable humanoid races to choose from, and instead of offering a rigid class-development system, the game allows characters to develop skills in four basic skill groups (combat, magic, harvesting, and crafting). Once your character attains a rudimentary degree of competence in a basic skill group, you gain access to more-specialized and more-powerful skills to develop. For instance, after gaining 20 levels of skill in basic crafting, your character can then develop an additional 30 levels of more-specialized armor crafting or melee-weapon crafting. Choosing to develop one group of skills does not limit your ability to learn the others, so devoted players could eventually develop a character who has fully mastered all available skills. As a result, players tend to develop jack-of-all-trades characters, and there's little incentive to create more than one character, although the developers intend to introduce further differentiation between races.
