Storm Legion would go down in history as one of the most epic expansions period, the Trion team should be awarded for the work they've done here, as since Kunark (1st eq1 expansion), what else has even come close?

WoW: Cataclysm? 

Not only it added new zones, but fully redone whole old world with thousands of new quests and new unique features. Im afraid Storm Legion cant touch that even if its a good expansion.

On another note Im surprised to hear that RIFT has changed so much. I thought it was extremely boring clone at release. Maybe I should give it another shot
 

I've actually never heard anyone say that Cataclysm was one of the most epic expansions to ever have come out. Although I am happy you enjoyed it (I actually didn't find it that bad either), the fact of the matter is that the majority of WoW players despised it and are thrilled to have moved on to another expansion.

Rift has come out with many  new features, added a ton of quests, and has more than tripled in size - I fail to see how Storm Legion "can't touch that". My advice to you is that you should give it another try, then reevaluate your review based on actual game experience.

Granted much of the assets were already in game (but plenty did change), but the size of Kalimdor + EK + the Cata zones is easily bigger than SL.  But as I said, much of the assets were already there.

When I first saw 'Rift: Storm Legion' being advertised on several different MMO sites, my initial thought was "Wow. Rift has an expansion coming out? I didn't realize anyone played anymore". I tried original Rift when it first came out, but quit soon after due to it having many similarities to a game I was already playing at the time  (WoW). At first, I had no intentions on playing this expansion. It wasn't until I came acrossed reviews of this game. I could not believe the large amount of positivity and praise that this expansion was being given. Curiousity eventually got the best of me, so I cracked and ended up buying the expansion. Let me start by saying, the reviews do not even give this game justice! It is nothing short of amazing. I cannot even believe that this is the same game. Trion has polished this game to perfection - no word of a lie. My advice to all players who previously played original Rift but ending up quiting? Come back! You will not regret it.

Endorsement? No. I've actually had an account on this site for a while now but just never posted up until now. That doesn't mean my review isn't legit. I decided to take the time to write this review based on my experience. Believe what you will.
