Let's be honest.  It's got [rift PQ's]^2, amped visuals, and other various facets.  But, if you think you won't be clicking attacks with a warrior, mage, and archer for gear vs low AI mobs... your kidding yourself.

I was going to do one for GW2 but couldn't really think of anything so here is one for AoC.

AoC:

Edit: I'm glad that you guys are enjoying these. Also, I'm not making them to bash any particular game, just having a bit of fun.

Anyone who can't find humor in this thread has to seriously get over themselves! C'mon, this stuff is classic! I think the Final Fantasy pong made me tinkle a little! RFLOL

I just found a  f2p  game called plasma pong http://download.cnet.com/Plasma-Pong/3000-2099_4-10511143.html ,

Its completely f2p and even has  sandbox mode for all you sandbox lovers!  and even better it doesn't have a cash shop!

The combat is pretty stright forward mainly consisting of  "Pow have it you" and then "Come on then you pansy Pow back at ya" not much of a grind either, all in all a good game.

lol, you have it spot on except for you added too much content.  (release version)

Thanks to Dakota for starting this thread. 

Heartless, thanks for all the visuals.  I loved the lens flare, and if I had been drinking anything, it would have sprayed keyboard and screen when I saw FFXIV.

Like many here, I alternate between fanboy praise and disillusioned venting about these games I love.  We can always use a reminder not to take ourselves too seriously.

So I found a new combat comparison video just to prove how much of a clone RIFT really is.

This is officially the most brilliant thread on MMORPG ever.

Lol, nice! ;)

99% of actual fan{Mod Edit}s will leave the game on april/may because

- brings nothing new on the table

- has not enough content 

- levelling is too easy and too fast

- pvp is poor

- pve is repetitive

- rifts are repetitive

- no rp no housing

- no storyline

thats funny. 

rift is fun FTM because we're in beta, we're discovering the game and playng the game few hours by week. i have fun too , it's the perfect moment for playing Rift, i expect big disappointments in 2 or 3 months.

I 'm not a hater, {Mod Edit} i 'll be on Rift too, but i wont take a sub. I' ll pay the box for 1 month, i ' ll have 2 chars lelv 50 then I'll leave for another game. This is not EQ2 not VG not Lotro not even War or Aion; only a clone of all of these games.

I can play a game without beeing a fanboy. 

Nothing new nothing perfect, rifts are fun, design is nice, so i'll play on PQ then i'll leave.

You know what? You're absolutely right! How could I forget?

Fixed:

Epic thread... sticky it xD

I loved playing Rift the game is not like this one not like that one, their biggest downfall and what made me cancel my pre-order was not being able to grasp the difference between PvP and PvE people beg for a real genuine PvE server and its brick wall time, they don't get it don't want to get it, not all of us are gung ho hack and slash everyone and everything that moves, some of us want to play quietly without having to do contested content and all the rest that makes it similar (Not like) Aeon it's ending up being just another WoW want to be instead of utilizing its capabilities and standing out from the crowd, their purgative good luck with that.

This is my personal opinion and don't care what others really say about it, I'd personally and 6 of my guild who pulled our pre-orders all feel the same, would be just nice to get a genuine PvE server where us pathetic "Care Bears" don't have to toe to toe with PvP types, not that I don't think its valuable to have PvP shards I really do and of course for those who want their cake and eat it PvP light shard (which currently the pve shard really is in disguise) , cater for more, reap the rewards, don't shut out everyone, and yes I can pvp but it makes me ill so I can't ....... truly loved the game, the game play although might as well shoved us on a chain so that we could be herded from quest to quest without thought, but hey I'm just me and one day oneeeee day a VG that works with pure pve will be mine to play and enjoy.

I do wish them luck with it though, their forums have already turned into a WoW tennis match of who's uber and who LeEt such a yawwwwn for us who hanker for more content more quests that are not hand held, more adventure. so they gave us a check box so we could turn off pve for us coward types and then cut half our content out because we can't do a thing.

Well like i say my opinion after all the betas, and my choice to withdraw the pre-orders, good luck to them hope it does shine above the rest........ they seem to think it will.

Excuse the terrible typing breaking in a dam sidewinder x6 keyboard I bought ready for live, ha-ha well it will still be here when a game comes out i can play :)

Hugs n stuff

moonie

Great post, OP. Very funny. :)

why not instead type an informative post of the games features that you feel are so grand, which would help those of us curiously looking at the game.

why is it so great that it inspires you to lash out at those who just want to hate it?

that would be way better than the pong joke.

 

i hit most rift topics, regardlessof the title. so maybe you should work more at making the community 'not' look like 12 year old douchebags.

Perhaps this is the best post yet.  Do you really need to do a detailed analysis of another WOW clone?  Why waste the time?  The original poster hit the nail right on the head.  I agree with all his points :)

I was just severely dissapointed but i had more expectations out of Rift. I didnt expect it to play and feel exactly like WoW (and other similar games). Thats my fault tho for hoping for better.

Rift is beautiful and cool but its called a clone for good reason. And not everybody means it as an insult. I loved WoW, i quit it after a long enough time, i did enjoy Cata but not enough to keep playing. Im not playing Rift because its like playing in Azeroths backyard. Ive moved.

Rift is a good game. Maybe ill pick it up if nothing else better has come out but DCUO is a fun casual game and im looking forward to the new Star Wars and i dunno a whole bunch of other games.

Definitely still cant wait for Diablo 3.

Oh and the Pong argument is terrible. Pong is overpowered and can never be nerfed.

I laughed.

When the community start making these jokes (lose respect for the direction their genre took) its a good sign we have evolved to a no return point.

Those things made fun off above wont ever be acceptable again.
