I know there was some old threads out there but now that people have gotten the chance to play. Is the game better than WoW? If you don't want to compare it. Is it fun or have the raiding bg etc in the game? Is it worth it? I want to buy Rift but don't want it to be another one of those failure MMO's I know Rift bot is down cuz it was detected but still want to play....if it's fun of course
 
I don't see anything to Rift that will keep me playing it as many years as I played EQ or WoW but it's ok. It passes the time. I just lost two accounts due to the Ryftomate ban wave but I bought two more accounts, so I guess there had to be something about it I enjoyed. Just can't put my finger on it. The many options for classes is cool, Rifts are different and cool. But it's just not as engaging as WoW has been, at least to me.
 
Rift has some nice touches, mainly regarding looting all the dead mobs around you at once, instead of one at a time, few nice things happen during rifts to regarding loot. Apart from that it ain't much of a challenge. The economy sucks as you can just get most thing you want by completing quests by leveling, there is no real AH trade and platinum there is no real call for, so botting ot make money is out of the question. Save you $$$ and spend it on something else.

Your opinion seems bias towards gold selling. Is the game itself fun or engaging?
 
IDK, I played abit during the BETA, I liked it, but I wouldn't buy / subscribe to it, I liked the citys and stuff, but the quests got boring, and especially the ones you had to run all over the country side for, Instances really sucked IMO, I didn't feel like anything, it was like your just in an normal area killing sh!t, overall, I'd say wow is much better, (much much better before CATA haha)

I waiting for SWTOR to be released, but as far a rift goes, its quite good an MMO, certainly better then most that are out, but just doesn't cut it opposed to wow.
 
dont care about rift really, tryed it for couple of days but, need to wait for Wow 2
 
Rift:

awesome graphics
awesome class 'selection'
you have 8 souls (talent trees) that you can pic from and respec into whenever you want (up to 5 specs at once unlike wow which has 2
classes 'souls' can do almost anything. warrior, cleric, and rogues have tank, healing, dps, and support specs. mages are dps, heals, support (dunno about tanks)
Questing is not too bad, some of the terrain / agro sucks - but not too bad

the Rifts can be annoying
the invasions are really annoying, but a good way to meet new people

all in all - it's different from wow, but not as 12 year old friendly
 
The Animations of RIft sucks wow is just the best and those 600k people that leaved wow for rift wil come back those 600k people wont hurt wow wow has stil 11 million subs.

wow didnt lose people to rift, altho trion likes to think so. Arena season ended, people burned the xpac sooner then xpctd. Pvp full of

bots, no real challenges no more etc etc.

Yes ofcourse some wow players went to try rift, but 99 % will go back.

In my personal opinion RIFT sux. Awesome graphics, to many choices, rifts and invasions tend to get annoying after a while.

Its a wow clone, nothing more, and they copied so many things from wow, still they failed at making it a nice game, to keep you !

sure, to pass time, its allright, but to play , like some of you and deffo me, played Wow, NO way !

Its like all these other so called MMOs, its time they start inventing new shit instead of copying eachother, gets annoying.

Maybe we see a new good game then, untill then, people can biaatch about wow being stale, annoying, boring, full of bots orealy :P

etc etc, but in the end, they return, untill some real game opens up. Untill now, nothing realy amazed me. And after playing wow, i dont

think anything has the capability to do so. Wow set the standard, untill someone goes beyond that one, instead of trying to " ride the

wave of succes" and fail misserably like Rift did, i will keep on playing / botting Wow.

The only thing Rift went popular, is cause they did a huge commercial bubble when wow got stale, people burned trought content etc.

was a nice move, but if you cant deliver then, cause as said, i think Rift is a shit game, you will die before you are 6 months old.

Ad thats what i think Rift will do, in 1 year from now, people will still play wow, but on the other hand... theres a vague memory about

Rift... hmm... what was that again...
 
I bought it but didn't renew it once my initial 30 days were up. I got one character up to about 48 before being completely burnt out on the repetitiveness of the questing and rifts. I think I'll just continue botting WoW until SWTOR comes out and I'll give it a shot.
 
I preordered it and was gaming before launch.. I didn't renew after my 30 days. Let it sit until ryftbot came out, botted for about 7 days and got account knocked out with the banwave. Didn't really hurt my feelings any, didn't really care for the game.. Won't be buying a new account.
 
It's a fairly new game so not having allot of content atm can be expected. I believe new content will be added very soon.The War Fronts (BG equivalent) in rift were pretty fun imo
