Important Importables: 10 great Korean MMOs to try

While it’s nice to read about import games, sometimes it’s also a little sad. I mean, you may not have the language skills necessary to play a foreign game. Or, more importantly, you may not have the funds. Importing games can get quite expensive, as you have to handle shipping and games are typically more expensive in other regions. So this week, Important Importables is going to focus on some games you can play – translated MMOs.

Korea is fast becoming known for creating quality MMOs. Best of all, companies are taking notice and these games are being translated and released in other regions. That means it’s time to salute some of these games, pointing out 10 that you can immediately download and start playing. You get all the joy of playing a game from another country, only in your own language and at quite an affordable price…

What $10 will buy in free MMOs

Free massively multiplayer online (MMO) games are abundant these days, but the free part is often deceptive. Yes, the games can be played and enjoyed without breaking out a credit card but many feature a premium shop filled with exclusive little goodies.

In some cases cash, shop purchases will allow players to customize their character or items (weapons, pets, etc.) bought from the shop can make adventuring a little easier. In the case of Mabinogi, for example, certain shop purchases even allow players to participate in special quests and storylines…

So I decided to take a look through the premium cash shops in some of Aeria, Nexon and Ntreev’s games and determine just how much fun $10 can buy in some of Aeria, Nexon and Ntreev’s free MMOs.
