Hey can you tell more about RIFT , want to try it . Playing Guild wars 2 from 6 months now , want to try different MMO .
i tried GW2, but i just couldnt get over how repetitive it was (sorry).
i like competition, where i can say "yea, i did this faster than you and i have better gear to prove it!" GW2 didnt have that, sadly.
RIFT is a tab target mmo, like, you actually SELECT a target than fire off your skills (only a very small number of "offensive" skills can be cast without having a target).
Its among the best F2P mmo's out there.
ATM, if you're just looking for some timepass and a very good story, and with solid gameplay, give RIFT a try, its TOTALLY free.
If you;re looking to be a highly competitive (like me), then 25$ (or 1-2 months work) will unlock the only things needed for "serious" raiding.
If you're just into casual stuff, there's dungeons, PvP (its not really balanced, but its still good), old level 60 raids (the levelcap was incrased to 65 a month ago, but the old lvl 60 content is still challenging enough), old lvl 50 raids (its FUN to solo them, keep in mind they were intended for 10-20 people), tons of stuff to do, like crafting, artifact collections, loads of achievements (there;s an achievement for dancing with squirrels).
I'll also be honest : the level 60-65 grind is a bit long (on purpose, i think, to make you buy experience vials from shop). but dont worry, if you run out of quests, just do a warfront or dungeon, they give good XP.
Next is the gear.... starter level 65 gear is VERY easy to come by, and is good for most things, but atm, the gear grind is sortof long (roughly 2 items per week), but you can complement the gear by gear from other sources, like pvp, dungeons, chronicle (1 man dungeons, sort-of).
Lastly, the worst thing is ENVY. You'll be ENVIOUS of the guy with the glowing white horse, or the burning squirrel, or that epic wardrobe. (did i mention wardrobe? BEST thing in all of rift. totally customize your char;s look) and you can conveniently "unlock" these things by paying for it. But, you cannot buy top-level gear this way (THANK GOD!!!). So, if you got TONS of money, you can only buy cosmetics, and not be OP from shop gear.
also, DIMENSIONS!!!
