Speaking strictly animations it is very subpar when compared to other AAA mmo's.

examples please? EQ2 animations were horrid, so were LOTRO, AoC has one of the worst jumping animations I have ever seen in a game.. although the combat ones in AoC are decent. Vanguards are pretty bad... what game that are you refering to? I mean I guess you could say COH or DCUO but those are differn't type of games.

EverQuest 2 was released in 2004. This is 7 years later, although WoW's animations do trump Rifts. Even if I can't rattle off 15 differen't MMO's that have better animations, it mean Rifts animations aren't awful for a game released a year ago.

I would settle for just 2 or 3.. and wow's really? wow's are as basic as they get as well. Rift's aren't anything special but are no worse than any other AAA game

Having played both games, the animations in WoW are far superior to Rifts.

I like AoC's animations as they are motion capped so they're as close to real life as technically possible. But I think the problem with what you said is when you are able to jump while running (vid). That right there looks bad. If I'm running and I make a jump (it becomes a leap?) it doesn't look like that haha.

I played both games for a pretty good length of time and many of the animations are pretty much the exact same. I mean it doesn't say much for Rift since wow is so old now but to say wows is better is silly to me.. some games with better would be like Aion and some of the f2p asian games.. but not wows

The actual game itself is awsome, and I love the way the soul system is set up. That being said, the animations are almost as bad as Runescapes. This doesn't make any sense to me because the textures and graphics are very good. Nothing is more anti-climatic as riding on a Vaiyuu mount.

 

Why?

if i could answer that, i might be rolreplaying a char in some mmo, but shit happens, as we say in danish, you cant blow and have shit in your mouth. (mel)

Wait, thats not what we say in danish?
