You can play this game without paying any fees! But the mount alone is the €10 worth you have to pay for the boxed version. Compared with the original software about the technical specifications nothing has changed.
The free add-on to Runes of Magic offers a new starting area , two new classes, one new race, four areas and a higher maximum character level. It's just more of the same and full of stereotypes, but Runes of Magic is still the best free MMORPG.
It’s not groundbreaking in any way, but what it does offer is a solid MMORPG that can be just as engaging as the likes of WOW and yet is completely free. This game has quashed the age old myth that free games lack quality.
