Go anywhere, do anything, and play your way in The Elder Scrolls Online. 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.
Free To Play Mmorpg Mac
Despite the growing popularity of Mac, most MMOs and MMORPGs don't have mac compatible versions of their games. Microsoft Windows remains king when it comes to online gaming, but Mac users aren't completely left in the dark, as the most popular games do have Mac versions. Don't expect obscure Korean and Chinese MMORPGs to have Mac compatible versions though. The list below should be helpful for Mac users looking for MMORPGs to try out. The games listed below have officially supported Mac clients. VM Ware, Crossover, and other third party tools can be used to get many other MMOs functioning on Macs.

- Install Boot Camp on your Mac and dual-boot it into Windows. You will need Windows license for this of course.
I hate to say it but you don't have many options.
I use a Mac as my main computer but had to buy a gaming pc for games.
GW2 has a mac client (I believe) but it's buy to play.
Elder Scrolls Online will have a mac client but they haven't announced their payment model (or release date for that matter)
Ryzom and EVE have Mac clients but EVE has a subscription. Ryzom has a limited f2p.
All of this is discounting your desire for 'varied mission structure'.
If you go to the game list there is a link up top for 'Mac'
Well, by variety I don't mean like a really unique experience like EVE (which is way too hardcore for me) or something. I mean a WoW-like experience where there's more to missions than 'go here, kill this' or 'go there, find that'. I want it like WoW or LoTRO but with missions in like puzzles and races and silly minigames along with the go here do this structure. And regardless of how much Elder Scrolls Online costs, I'm probably gonna buy that (assuming it's good). This MMO is only to subside my wait for that.
Thanks for the help so far guys!

I work in IT and this is my biggest (and growing grip), the number of people who buy the wrong tool or try and use their current tool for the wrong purpose and complain about it. Buy a PC if you want to play games, it is what they are good at. Buy a MAC if you want to design things or want to be spoon fed how your system should work. Don't buy a MAC then expect gaming options to be plentiful.
Seriously, if I have to deal with another person who bought a MAC because they look cool, then has to buy Parallel's to install Windows so they can use a bit of PC software..grrrr!

I'm not an idiot. The reason I have a Mac is because I make video games (along with messing around with animation and filmmaking) and the Mac is my system of choice. That said, I'm not gonna buy an entire PC right now just to play some games. The bulk of my day is spent on my Mac already. I'm just trying to find a fun MMORPG that's free to play and happends to be on Mac when I'm not working on my stuff.
