I really need to checkout Exteel I enjoyed your coverage of it. I really love PVP. I bet it runs really well since they coded their own technology for it
From that list really keen on Spellborn, Darkfall, and Conan. However, everything you listed is worth checking out.

I tried eXteel tonight and IMO it barely qualifies as a MMORPG. No persistent world. 3rd person, FPS-twitchy gameplay with poorly-handling anime-style “mechs”. Didn’t see any voice communication options, which the game sorely needs.
It’s not a bad time-waster, really, but not deserving of this list, for sure.

Exteel is not an MMO. 8-16 players per session. It’s Tribes with mecha, except you can pay cash money to upgrade yourself. Good for a few rounds, but an MMO? Not so much.

eXteel is a great game regardless of being an MMORPG. You get to upgrade your mech and have fun fighting people. I got to level 24 and have full zeeker and wielding dual annihilators.
