There seems to be a new free to play MMORPG released every week these days, but even with the immense growth of the genre, very few MMORPGs are Mac compatible. Considering Mac users only make up for ~5% of the market share for operating systems, it’s not surprising that most game developers opt not to develop Mac compatible versions of their MMORPGs. The only MMORPGs Mac users can usually play are browser MMORPGs, but after Googling around for a bit, I learned that some client based MMORPGs are also Mac compatible. Below is a list of all Mac compatible MMORPGs that run on OS X:
Savage 2
A Unique MMORTS published by S2 Games. The game blends RPG elements as well as RTS elements. Play as either humans or beasts and defeat your enemies stronghold to win.
World of Warcraft

Warhammer Online
The epic 3D Fantasy MMORPG from Mythic (Electronic Arts) that was designed to be a WoW killer. Even though it didn’t succeed in that, it’s still around and gets updated regularly. The game has a strong emphasis on PvP.
Second Life
Second Life is a surprisingly in depth 3D virtual world developed and published by Linden Labs. It’s not exactly a traditional “game” much like the other titles listed here, but more of a social virtual world than anything else.
Fallen Earth
A 3D sci-fi themed post-apocalyptic MMORPG with third person / first person FPS gameplay.
GetAmped 2
GetAmped 2 is a 3D fighting MMO published by CyberStep. It has an excellent amount of appearance customization and plays a bit like Rumble Fighter.
Regnum Online
This 3D fantasy MMORPG with an emphasis on late game Realm vs Realm PvP added Mac support in early 2011.
Note: Only games that support Mac without any additional software are listed here. You can get a lot more MMORPGs working on OS X through programs like CrossOver and VM Ware, but those are not included in this list.
Comments
Ha ha, now that is funny...while there are some companies that write MMO's for both PC and Mac, CCP is an example, none of the free ones do. Good reason for that, most of the free games come out of Korea and China and Macs are quite rare in those countries. So chances that one of these free companies will fund a mac client are slim and none.
Nothing wrong with a Mac, but if you want to play games you buy a PC.

I'd hate them much less if they openly allowed people to buy computers to meet specifications to run their operation system.
Oh well, I guess the one friend in our group will have to get a PC or a parallel. See, he's sort of the scholarly type... not really but he doesn't need the entertainment of a PC to the full extent.
So he can't play much games with us.
Dofus will work on a Mac, but I have no idea if you'll like it. I would guess not, but you might.
Also, if he has bootcamp, and he most likely does, then he can install Windows on his Mac and run PC games. That'll open up a whole world of free MMOs you can choose from.

Exact same reason I hate them. I would go as far as to buy OS X and install it on my PC if Apple would loosen their iron fist. No chance in hell I would buy over priced hardware just to use a BSD based OS.

So the light up apple on the back of your laptop can declare to the world how unique and special you are while you uniquely surf the web and charismatically check your email in the local coffee shop.

Why even use a Mac if you run Windows on it?You run both Mac and Windows on it. Mac so you don't have to deal with Windows while you work. Windows for the occasional PC game you want to play.
