Good free action MMO?

Vindictus and Warframe are some of the best REAL action mmos you'll find Both have actually great gameplay, but there are cons Warframe eventually ends up getting kinda grindy. And Vindictus is run by Nexon

games like Wildstar, TERA and Blade and Soul aren't really the kind of "action game" I look for (The closest you get to real action in those games are telegraphs and dodge mechanics, which are ok but don't make for very visceral and real feeling action on their own)

Honorable mention is Dragon Nest, but falls short because it becomes ridiculously grindy, and the gameplay seriously stops being interesting once raids start being about obnoxious wipe mechanics rather than really going up against a boss

I'm trying get away from the standard WOW, FFXIV, style of play. It just feels so boring i want more excitement.

Wildstar became free lately. It's pretty nice although mmorpg isn't my type of game anymore if I had to play one of those it would be wildstar.

I don't know so much about SWTOR being "action", but if you like the Star Wars story, it's not bad. Just, don't look to do anything endgame haha. The game is packed with useless stuff like interior decorating and lame starship battles. The story, however, is completely voice acted and actually kinda "deep" in places. Again, you'd need to be a Star Wars fan though.

any idea on blade and soul release?

wild star, dragon nest, and blade and soul
