Hi all, time for my first post
I was only recently introduced to Rift when I came across some videos on another forum and I have to say I was totally blown away with how good it looked. I am always on the lookout for new MMOs and have played a few in the past. While I may come across one here and there which appears to have potential, in the end they havent really delivered.
I guess, like alot of people, my start in MMOs came with WoW back in 2005. I dont hate the game, I still quite enjoy playing, but mostly I play because of a special person I game withOver the years I have been casual, hardcore, raider, solo-player, guilded, unguilded and have taken many long breaks from the game only to get sucked back in again due to the lack of anything better lol
During my breaks I tried other games - LotRO, WAR, AoC, Fury, Eve - some were good, some not-so-good lol. None were able to keep my interest. Some just felt unfinished or broken in some way. I dont think any have had the smooth gameplay that came with WoW.
Watching Rift I got a feeling more like what I have been looking for. It looks incredibly smooth, and different enough to pique my interest. After a couple of days looking at videos and looking through everything on the website, I saw the option to pre-oder a digital copy. It didnt take me long to make up my mind, I purchased my collector's edition and am now happily waiting to give things a shot.
I really hope it lives up to expectations. I am looking forward to many evenings in a new world
