you could play a mac only mmorpg, Oberin (http://www.oberin.com/).  its under development and the graphics are 2d, but its pretty fun all the same!

Title: Not sure if I should post this or not...

It seems a bit dodgy to post about other mmorpg\'s on a forum, but I suppose since there are very few mac ones and planeshift is free, there\'s no corporate/competition problems. I mean, Planeshift is the best, so there\'s no worry.

Also, I know this forum is meant for Planeshift mac related problems, but you all know as well as I do that if I posted it in the Hydlaa Plaza, more than half the replies would be something along the lines of \"stupid mac users, if you want to play games, buy a PC!\" So, since I don\'t want to deal with that I posted it here. I apologise and understand if it\'s deleted but I thought it might be good for the mac people that frequent this forum.

Anyways, I noticed that http://www.mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm?gameId=0 doesn\'t have a search by platform, and I have unfortunately noticed that mac mmorpg\'s are hard to find.

So here\'s a list of all the ones I know of.  Please post if you\'ve played them and how you would rate them:

Released:

Name.............................................Buy/Fee---mmorpg.com\'s rating:

World of Warcraft.......................................$/$---8.6
Everquest Mac Edition.................................$/$---7.6
Vendetta Online.........................................$/$---7.5
Puzzle Pirates.........................................free/$---7.4
A Tale in the Desert II.............................free/$---7.3
WWII Online...............................................$/$---7.2
Second Life............................................free/$---7.0
Shadowbane...............................................$/$---6.8
RS(the game that shall not be named)...free/free---6.6
Lineage..................................................free/$---5.9
Clan Lord....................................................$/$---4.4

In Development

Planeshift............................................free/free---7.1 (Sweeet!!!)
Wurm Online...............................................n/a---6.0
Eternal Lands..............................................n/a---5.1
Oberin........................................................n/a---3.0

Planeshift is the only one I have played, so I worry that many others will disappoint me. WoW looks awesome, but won\'t run on my computer (I have a 667 with 10.2.8 ).

Anyways, hope to see you all in Yliakum soon,

Xirius
