Runes of Magic might be a MMORPG to actually be excited for, considering it's one of the first high-profile micro-transaction based online games in the West, while it also seems to be of a quality level that is far above the average -- usually Korean -- competitor's. Perhaps that is largely thanks to its obviously inspired by World of Warcraft graphics, but also due to extra features implemented, like dual-classing, server vs. server PvP, upgradable crafting items, and more.
Anyway, the open beta is now available for everyone to try out. They call it a beta, but it's more of a low-profile launch, considering all of the game's features, including the item shop -- where you'll be spending real money for in-game items, such as extra experience gain potions -- are available and fully functional. Click here to get started, keeping in mind that the setup client has a size of 3.39GB and needs about 3.62GB hard disk space, or hit the jump for the official press release.
