CaptnStubing · 02-04-11, 09:57 AM

Yeah I'll be in the game tonight.

**ATOJAR** · 02-04-11, 10:01 AM

Well i finally get Rift downloaded and i now have to wait until 6pm .... That's 10am in the US.

How do people like the game so far? Is it a keeper?

EDIT:
What servers are people rolling? PvP? PvE? RP?

I'm tempted to roll PvP ... That's what i played in AoC.

I really like the game. I haven't played the BETA too much because I don't want to ruin it when it comes out. The only thing that I am worried about is content at the upper levels. Does this have enough to do to keep me wanting to pay a subscription each month. If not it will be treated like a long single player RPG as most MMOs are like for me.

**ATOJAR** · 02-04-11, 12:59 PM

Hmmm, i cant figure out how you pick what class you want to be., Also the create character options seem limited ... Maybe just because its a beta.

EDIT: Never mind!

Tygerwoody · 02-20-11, 06:17 PM

6 of us that used to play WoW have been in the last two BETAs. We are having a great time. The game has been as solid as a release game since BETA 4, we just finished BETA 7. There is nothing really new in this game but it does the basics very well. I would consider it the Darksider of MMOs. Darksider took good ideas from many games and made one great game that basically had nothing new.

My only consern is will this game hold my attention for very long? I don't know but I will ride the Rift wave till it does get boring.

I have played in several of the beta's I think overall it is a polished game ready for release, and is fun in beginning.

But i think the problem just like almost all new mmorpg...it is not different enough from what is out there to really keep me from playing long term.

Truth is not since days of original EQ/UO/AC/WoW, to me nothing will ever get me addicted like I use to be, because it is the same hashed over and over again, with different names, and a few differences here and there.

That is exactly how I see it. I am having fun with this game but when I hit max level will I still want to play it? My guess is no but it is up to Trion to make me stay with more content.

The game has had a pretty flawless release so far, unless you count not being able to log in in under an hour. LMAO! They are opening new servers all the time. My advice is NEVER log out once you get on.

Seriously once you get on the game is almost perfect.

I will say the biggest problem with the game is the stupid people complaining about the Rifts. Um, that is the point of the game. They wanted to interrupt your normal quest grinding with some actualy world events to get you to be drawn into the world. If you don't like that then don't play Rift.

BTW I was the first player on my shard to get "cotton britches". LMAO! A crafting item and when I got them it sent out a server wide notice that I got them first. A lot of eewwwing and ahhhing i'll tell ya. Nothing like a green item to get ur juices flowing.
