I agree. And no, I don't think GW2 or SWOR will save our nostalgia-laced preferences from the decrepit dominion of “good old days” oblivion. RPGers are so exploited by companies and their promises that they’re excited about leftovers. I can…
Hooray, DAoC moved up! Game had it all; even monotonous time consuming pve that actually payed off when you went to pvp. One thing DAoC had was equal partnership (prior to NF) between pve and pvp. It's a small thing, but it negates realm imbalanc…
If they overhauled the class combat I'd be back. I absolutely adored the ambiance and land. The shimmer is amazing. Just get rid of redundant or useless abilities that have minimal affect over the fight and improve animations. I don't want DC on…

I don't regret my lifetime sub. In fact, it has paid for itself for years. Yeah, I only play it a few times a year now but it's always there...and my first playthrough was tons of fun. Love the storylines but that also makes it have less replay v…

Nostalgia aside, I think all "old-school" gamers knew what was coming when they played WoW. It wasn't that it was astounding or groundbreaking, it was just more tangible. The things we thought of as "niche" or a "cumbersome fact/part of mmo…
As Master said above, canceling because of a nerf is kind of rediculous at this point. To me, it seems that if you're ready to cancel this early then you'll cancel if all the future nerfs don't go your way. Without a doubt, in a new games first mo…
Originally posted by Scot RP has declined but blaming PvP is so wrong. Making MMO's for a mass market and console gamers were the two main reasons. We have seen a flood of players come in who came from a shoot erm up background and MMO companies dec…
Just like everything else in the world, if you chose to view something superficially then you will see superficial things. On its surface you can find a plethora RIFT has in common with other games; Van, WAR, WoW, and DAoC. The differences a…
I got in before class today but only had time to make characters. I thought, "Hey, later tonight there will be fewer..you know night time and such." But I failed. I still think there should be more than one rp-pvp though. Still, I'll wait my tur…

People (the minority) are just impatient. This is for the best. Trust me, you don't want hollow servers in just a few days. I've got class in 2 hrs and I'm perfectly content to wait till tonight if I have to. Have a solid Rift community means a …

RP-PVP. I'm thinking you'll get less jerks just out to gank on an rp one. I'd rather them have a purpose such as the war and not so much as a chance to teabag someone. I find strait PVP just makes me miss DAoC a lot more.
