Let's Play Rift Videos - decide if it's for you

[Sambonz]

Well done! I didn't think I'd enjoy watching but I really am. It's nice to see your enjoyment - I've hit the end-game grind and have gotten dissatisfied, so you've helped me to remember to take things slower and to enjoy the game for what it is.

I hope you keep on enjoying and playing the game! Looking forward to your future adventures.

thank you very much for your kind words!

i'm really glad the series has reminded you to stop and smell the roses - maybe not as much as I do (annoying the heck out of Tallahassee in the process lol) but it's definitely worth taking the the time to enjoy the world that's been created for us.

see you in Talara =)

This is absolutely great, and you have the voice for it!

Thank you very much!
I hope you're enjoying the series, and enjoying the game even more =)

Part 16 of my 'Let's Play' gameplay and commentary in the new MMO, Rift, by Trion.

In this episode we're greeted by a foothold invasion to our local quest hub, making for an exciting start to our adventure today, before getting down to the quest tasks at hand in this new area called the Sunken Marsh. Along the way we cover off the topic of marking mobs, and we find ourselves once again having to look after Scotty the dwarf who we'd already protected back in the Argent Glade. We finish off the episode by summoning a named bogling, and saving a Spirit Guide.

Part 17 of my 'Let's Play' gameplay and commentary in the new MMO, Rift, by Trion.

In this episode we get back to questing, beginning with one that has us attacking Aelfwar Scouts in the East as we make our way back towards Sanctum. It's not very long before we get pulled into a battle at a local Life Rift, helping to close it and prevent an invasion. We then take a swim out to a shipwreck to collect sunken cargo, and continue on with some quests along the beautiful coastline before endeing up outside the gates of our Guardian capital city.

Unfortunately since it's really late, I didn't really get a chance to watch much of your videos, but did you ever discover that the Defiants are actually the good guys, being oppressed by us pushy Guardians?

Hey, I love the idea of a LP for RIFT but to me, it just seems like MMOs and MMORPGs aren't the correct type of game to have a LP because "online experiences may vary".

Anyway, great Job =P

New episode posted: Let's Play Rift - Part 22 - Realm Of The Fae (Instance)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddfYmRCq6To

Part 22 of my 'Let's Play' gameplay and commentary in the new MMO, Rift, by Trion.

In this very special episode we join up with three fantastic members from the 'Seraphim' guild here on the Wolfsbane server (Suryt, Ezraeil and Dubid) as we tackle our very first 5-man dungeon run in the game - 'Realm Of The Fae' - which turns out to be a great introduction to instances in Rift. I'm not playing on my usual Let's Play Mage character, as we decide instead to bring in my little Cleric Healer for the purposes of the run. Both Tallahassee and myself would like to thank these guys very much for their patience and skill, and for a fun and informative run.
