I like Rift's dungeons more than other game's.The dungeons in WoW were good on average but some were pretty bad.  In Rift there's not a dungeon where half the party leaves upon entering it, other words there's no Oculus in Rift.

Why do you assume I don't have a handful of MMOs that I still currently play?  I currently play WoW, Lotro, AoC, EQ2 and Rift.  I've also gotten a chance to actually play GW2 and TSW.  

It's not normal?

I'd rather not have a full on expansion until 2014

I spent an hour doing the bat puzzle in Stillmoor. I love this game very much so.

Thanks for the video man. I missed the pts today due to work. Can't wait for 1.9. Trion surprised me with this one. I know it's early to talk about expansions but their expansion pack will probably blow other's away just knowing their work ethic.Hatts off to Trion

I really enjoyed Rift up to level 32 or so. I just couldn't dig the repetetive hubs every few levels. One major city? It had some very cool things like RIfts, which I thought were great until the 100th one I had to encounter then try to avoid like the plague. Also, everything seemed pretty dark, I had a hard time seeing where I was going at times. I know this poat may sound trivial but I just couldn't login after a few months, although I tried!

The darkness could possibly have been fog. There was a world event where you couldn't see very fat because of this black  fog that was everywhere in Telara. 

I wouldn't say Pay to Win. The difference between the first gun you have and the last one you unlock in terms of effectiveness in BF3 is not that great compared to say the difference in guns in a free game like combat arms.  

I believe Instant Adventures will.

Chronicles? I doubt. The chronicles are based on the lvl 50 raids.

Not really tooo excited for fishing. I guess it's more content but I never really went fishing in WoW to kill time. I doubt survival will be worth anything more than a time killer. IA's are already the greatest timekiller, imo.

I'm pretty biased because I like RIft so much. But yeah, you should play Rift. 

I have never encountered a person who has ever brought up permadeath.(Besides on the internet). I don't want it to play a game where permadeath is forced on you. If it's an option than I could care less if it's in the game. However, I am not saying that I'm not open to the idea if it's implemented well enough, but I think the chances are slim.

Rift is an OK game. Heck, its only the 4th MMO that has kept me longer than 3 months since I started MMOs in 2000.

 

I have serious doubts this game will be have enough funds for an expansion in 2013. GW2 will take a lot of people. Unless GW2 is a total bomb I know I will be leaving.

I don't understand the logic of GW2 taking a lot of people. Most people that are subbed to rift that buy GW2 will probably remain subbed to rift since there's no monthly from gw2.

I did like Conan's combat, I did not like the amount of instancing done though. For anyone who hasn't done it, play the first 20 levels in the game, they're the best.

I think Library of the Runemaster's is one of the better instanced PvP areas in a any MMO right now.

That warfront was a broken mess the last time I played it, during the free week. I kept on falling through the map.

 

Sounds like a personal problem considering that doesn't happen to my friends or I.

I have to agree with Grakulen, Library is chill. My favorite in the game with Codex not far behind. My least favorite is Port of Scion mainly becuase of 30+ min games. Whitefall can be good sometimes but not everytime.

It's weird because Trion orginally stated that RIFT would have no expansions, and that they would just keep releasing huge patch updates to make up for it.

None of the patch updates qualifies as huge though.  Frequent, but not huge.  So far we have seen one new zone, 2 new dungeons, 2 new 20 man raids, and a decent amount of 10 man raids.  other than the 10 man raid content this is not remotely near expansion sized.

 

Compare this with the upcoming EQ2 patch:

 

Destiny of Velious Content Updates Include: +

• Level cap raised to 92
• Withered Lands outdoor zone with over 100 quests and solo, small group, and raid content
• Play YOUR way in Skyshrine instances with solo, normal and challenge group modes
• Experience endgame storyline events with Heroic Group and Raid instances
• Earn prestige class talents to build the power of your character
• All new tradeskill quests and items woven into the story arc
• New Drake mount

 

Age of Discovery Additions:++

• Poet’s Palace Dungeon Maker theme and items
• New Dungeon Maker adventurers
• Tradeskill apprentices with new recipes (one Elite!)
• Elite mercenary
• New warders to tame for Beastlords

If Rift's patches aren't huge then I don't think this everquest patch really counts as huge.

Over 100 quest? Cool, Ember Isle had over 120 quest.

It says solo, small group, and raid content but that's vauge. Rift introduce new types of raid rifts, dungeons, 2 man dungeons and then some solo content.

I dunno what skyshrine is but Rift had Master Mode and an advanced Master Mode

I dunno about the prestiege talents, sounds like AA, which rift has added since release. 

New tradeskill quest? That doesn't sound like bullet worthy point to sell an upcoming patch.

New mount? Cool rift adds 1-2 mounts each event. 

That everquest patch doesn't sound huge so I dunno why you'd want to compare it with Rift's. 

The new BG definitely sounds a lot like Black Garden from Rift

Do you understand the emotional truama that is rift armor//clothes whateverdoesntmatterit'swhatyourwearing!?

HUHH? DO YOU YOU BLIND PERSON! I bet your character could wear a pink unitard with scuba fins and a a cowboy hat with ski goggles and you would it's the awesomest rogue sneaky class ever. BUT HOLD THAT NEON PHONE. It's rather like a clown. My characters feel like clowns. Dark fanasty clowns. That is it that's what they were going for! RIFT MOCKS US! and you, you sit there and try to put up a defence. A weak one cause you know, KNOW, that rift is causing mental problems with its armor style. 

what?

War and Rift aren't very similiar.

I was super hyped for war, however I didn't stay around long.

Wasn't aware of Rift until closed beta and haven't stopped playing since.

Rift is a PVE game, so if you're a pvp junkie you probably won't be around for the long haul. 

Do not misunderstand me about the PVP, it's fun and I use it to level up alts. 

What suprised me was how intuned the game was when I bought it, compared to AoC and WAR.

If you're curious about playing download the trial. 

It's gonna be a hell of a game.
