This is a thread about those Asian MMOs or F2P online games that might not have actually been that great, but for some reason kept a lot of people really occupied in the old days, especially folks who couldn't afford actual real subscriptions to World of Warcraft (which was me in high school).
I'm sure a lot of people will mention Maple Story or Ragnarok Online here but I'm actually more interested in learning about the ones that were a little less famous. Where I lived, for instance, a ton of kids got really into Gunbound for some reason. I'm sure a lot of people here played it too, but if you didn't it was basically a Korean version of Worms. With customization.
I never got into Gunbound as much as a few others like Survival Project, which was this weird kinda overhead 2D arena brawler.
Then there was Fairyland, a Taiwanese (?) MMO that had turn-based combat, which was kinda cool. It also seemed to rip music from Legend of Mana.
And finally Project Powder, a snowboarding game that my roommates and I got obsessed with.
Of these, Project Powder was probably the best, but I don't think it's still up and running. That's the sad thing with a lot of these old online games, unfortunately.
Anyway, what were your faves? And are they even still playable?
