Hi Dacia.
First, as regards browser games it doesn't matter what computer and speks
you have sinse they run through your browser so playing them is just like
viewing web pages.
Games of course vary, from fantasy to scifi, from games with lots of pvp
that is player vs player combat to games with little or none, some have
complex quests and adventures, some are simple pick up and play affairs,
it's really a major thing.
Two places to look are www.audiogaems.net which ahs hopefully detailed pages
for many browser mmorpgs (go to the "search archive" function and select
mmorpgs in the dropdown to see a list), and then for several more see the
"Games to play online page" over at www.whitestick.co.uk.
Personal favourites include the scifi game Core exiles (though I've not
played for a while), Kingdom of Loathing, a commic fantasy rpg, Metroplexity
a cyberpunk rpg game, and puppet nightmares, a very complex but rather
twisted rpg where you catch and control fantasy creatures called soul
puppetts.
As regards mmoprgs on your pc, ie, dedicated programs that play online
games, the only one I know is the very recently developed scifi game
deathmatch new beginning from http://realitygaming.usa.cc/
Swamp has online play but is not really an rpg, it's a high action first
person shooter.
There are however several particularly accessible mud games.
Muds are text games played in real time, the most famous and most well known
is Alteraeon (developed by Detin aka Dennis Town who you've seen on this
list),
Alteraeon is a fantastic game, particularly with the soundpack and dedicated
program by Oriol gomez that makes it a full scale audio rpg, find out more
on the alteraeon site at http://www.dentinmud.org/alter/
There are however many other good muds with access fixes, again you can
search the audiogames.net database by muds to get listings for several
notable ones or check the games to play online page at whistick.co.uk.
Hth.
Beware the grue!
Dark.
