I'm currently planning on trying out Guild Wars, since there's no monthly fee to try to make up each month (and it's one of game currencies mmofly.com buys).
Out of curiousity, what were you doing to profit $15/month in EU? Sweating?
Anyway, games that are technically RCE games have been discussed here: RCE Game List.
Perhaps you could try Everquest 2 on the couple of servers that allow real world trading. Second Life and the rest are not really places where you can "game", and I don't think Afterworld allows withdraws yet.
Outside of that restriction, I don't think WOW is a very good one to try. Although it has a large subscriber base, wow gold is worth almost nothing because of all the gold farming businesses. I would suggest trying Lord of Rings, since the platinum has a fairly high blackmarket value. |
In Eu I was doing a combination of three different things. Some sweating, some trading and I also sold quite a few things for my soc that they would have just tt'd. I've got a long term plan to make more as well but until I know it makes money I won't say it here. Mostly trading so far though. EU is incredibly difficult to trade successfully in though. Especially since the recession hit but I'm hoping the cry engine, once all the bugs are worked out, will help that pick up a bit.
I was considering Everquest 2 when I found they had specific servers that allowed real world trading.
I also agree WoW is not worth it but do you know if its technically against the Eula to do so in Lord of the rings? I know its a tough one to define whether its allowed or not in some cases. Some just say the don't officially support it because it may go wrong and people might get scammed. |
