Dark Eden: The best vampire MMO you never heard of.

Dark Eden... I don't even know how to start. It was a gem about two years ago when I found it. Not sure how it is now, but it looks like it's still free. It is, indeed, a slayer versus vampire mmo.

The graphics aren't anything special, trust me. However, the game play is real solid. As a slayer you have the usual equipment - armor, gloves, boots, and weapons. Slayers can be healers (they use crosses to hit vampires), marksmen (boomsticks), and good ol' swordsman. You aren't locked into any one class, so you can hybrid healer and swordsman, or whatever you'd like. Skill levels rise based on how much you actually use the skills. I like that. Slayers also get motorcycles when they save enough money. You can also air-lift to different maps to save walking time for a fairly low price.

The vampires can all wear armor, but they are much more skill-dependant. Well, that and they're fucking vampires. Usually they have a lot more strength than slayers, hit faster, and harder (you attack with your hands). The skills seem like they come right out of the lair of Vlad himself.

Slayers and vampires can't use the same equipment.

There is essentially endless PvP every where except the specified safe zones (one town on each side and one safe area far from town in the middle of the world). It's fun once you get some levels under your belt, considering where ever you hunt if you encounter some one there they will be around your level (so you have a real chance to kill them).

Of course, the price is free.
