Well, basically any other any MMO with a monthly sub costs you 15$ or more. Those devs gotta eat something too ^^
If you ever want to start out pm me on skype and we can set something up.
To not make this a Wakfu thread, here are 2 games I played after HnH and before Wakfu:

Poe back in closed Beta when it was still really indie ^^ Now it is not much of a insider tip anymore I guess. The player numbers went through the roof after open beta launched. The true successor of Diablo 2:)
Aaaaaand of course Realm of the fucking Mad God! Great game back then. Heard it got overrun by duping and a take over from a ruthless p2w company...but those might be just rumors.

Permadeath rpg shooter where you can reach max level in 20 minutes, but you die every few hours too...unless you manage to snack up the permanent stat potions and the like to create a real monster of a character. Then losing it however hurts more too, but whom am I telling that ^^
