I've never played MMORPG's before, but I had a few hours at Tales of Pirates, which I think is still technically beta. It seemed kinda fun, if a little repetitive, and the server I was on was laggy as hell, but apparently other servers are not. I can't really see the appeal of MMORPG's, but Tales of Pirates seemed a lot less annoying and unenjoyable than I expected, and I might have actually played a bit more if I could have switched servers without losing my character.
