Online RPGs

[Diavolo]

This has two parts to it.

1. I'm looking for free online RPGs. I know about Runescape, and a Knight's Quest game, but I am wondering if there are any more out there.

2. What does it cost to play FFXI online, Star Wars Galaxies, and Star Wars Knights of Old Republic outside of the cost to buy the program?

Guild Wars (http://www.guildwars.com/) is an upcoming MMORPG I recently heard about. While I don't believe the game itself will be free, the people behind it have said that there will be no monthly fees.

Galaxies runs about $15 per month if you pay on a monthly basis. The price goes down if you sign up for longer plans. Don't know about the other titles.

KotOR is single-player only. The only online functionality is free content downloads.

That's music to my ears. I don't mind paying for the software, but only once.

ok, how about Everquest. it's been out there for awhile, and has a lot of background. but again i can't find any price for the online fees.

found FFXI, it is 12.95 plus 1 for everyother character. might be playing that soon.
