Can we have a link to the download or front page of free game clause?  Instead of a direct link to the download?

Less blurgh, more respectableness?

(Looks at the 'General' download.)

Yes. Not to mention it's only useful as long as people keep bumping into it.

What's the use of Wikipedia if only 20 people know it's there?  :o

If you want it to be stickied, have you considered messaging Toady or Threetoe? They aren't omni-prescient ya know.

They've had a few PMs about it. Guess it just has to get bumped occasionally...

I don't think i'll be able to navigate it enough to even see how it works.

Anyways, theres a few games i've been liking thats not on the list.

Legacy Online - MMO - Browser-based
Nodiatis - MMO - Browser-Flash

Notice that there's different tab for browser / flash games.

I THINK Legacy online was there, but got removed for limitations on free players. If not, then it was some other game...

Nodiatis

By this logic, most MMOs would qualify for this list. Nodiatis is free, with lots and lots of bonuses for people who pay for any of their multiple levels of subscription fees, such as reducing the tediousness of the intentionally grindy gameplay.

There are already several like that on the list. Just label them as 'freemium' so people know what they're getting into.

I believe most of them have just cosmetic improvements for paying customers.

If you have to pay to get the full experience and/or to be competitive with others, it really can't be considered as "free." We'd have to include all the demos out there also, because in the end they're also free games that give paying customers some extra.

DDO, LotRO, and World of Tanks (IIRC) all give mild tactical advantages to paying customers (these are the only ones on the list I've tried).

Shall we add another tab for freemium games so the option is there?
