It's fairly maddening. Hard to believe they couldn't have predicted this would happen. I recommend going to Metacritic.com, Ign.com, etc... and leaving negative reviews. That may actually inspire Square to invest in upgrading their servers.

I do like the game, when I'm able to play it. However, this launch has been terrible, and really at a critical time when people are just trying to trust SE after the version 1. I left them a nice 0 star review on Metacritic, which they definitely de…

Worth pointing out that the Warrior's combo system builds points up that travel with the Warrior, but the Rogue system builds points up that travel with the target. That means Warriors can switch targets easier and have less 'build-up' time than Rog…

@jvx: Once you get outside of the starting area, the Rifts are scaled depending on how many people are in the area. So if you are the only person in the area, the Rift will be weak enough so you can close it yourself. If you are talking about…

The question isn't really: "Will Rift outsell World of Warcraft?" because the answer there is going to be 'No.' The real question is: Will Rift make money? And I think it's safe to guess the answer to that is: Yes. It was developed by a small …

Yeah... none of the games OP listed are in the same genre as RIFT. I imagine he'd say the exact same thing about LOTRO, EQ2, WoW, and other massively successful games that made tons of money and millions of people enjoy...

I am not too worried about this one. I play MMO's pretty heavily, and even in the games I have invested over a year in (LOTRO) I don't have more than two characters at max level. I bet if you looked at how many MMO gamers have more than four high le…

I did a lot of PVP this weekend and thought it was pretty balanced, too. I played as a Reaver/Paladin/Void Knight shield tank, and didn't notice anything too ridiculous happening. It's a lot like Warhammer. It's going to feel unbalanced if you spe…

For the record, I don't think Rift (or probably any MMO) will be pulling World of Warcraft numbers. But, I can see Rift being as successful as, say, LOTRO or EQ2 or FFXI, which are all successful games that made a lot of money and have healthy popul…

I agree, this game will be excellent for anyone looking for a refreshed version of the same old MMO. This is the game that will fill the spot Final Fantasy 14 missed for so many players, because it was broken and terrible. To me, Rift looks like …

I've played many MMO's, and I much prefer Rift's zones to say, Vanguard's massive zones. Roaming through Vanguard was depressing. Sure, there were tons of little locales to discover - but they were all unpopulated, it felt like someone designed the …

I agree with this review, and my experiences were similar. The level of customization is what makes this most promising to me, and because the Souls system is so flexible, I think it could be very easy for the devs to add in more and more classes…

PS: I like the way Geldon has to awkwardly back out of his earlier position, like he can't just admit to himself that the game isn't very good. "Oh, it's not FF14 in particular, this could happen with ANY MMO! You know how it is, right? I mean, MM…

Wow man, I totally disagree with you. The first week of this game's release, the interface lag was so bad it was nigh-unplayable. I played most of the games you listed and I would say this game isn't as bad as, day, Dark and Light.. but it is very…
-
Yeah man, why would anyone ever compare this game to WoW? It's not like WoW is also a fantasy-themed MMO for the same system, with the same genre and play-style, competing for the same market. /sarcasm.

Not enough content, classes or quests for me. This game needs expansions before it gets my interest back. Even if it ran perfectly... The core of the game still consists of doing really boring leve quests and then hit 20 minutes of "story", and th…

Yeah this isn't an unprecedented move. If I recall, more than one MMO has done this exact same thing. It is nice of them, I agree... but really, having played their game, there's no way they could fix it enough for me to find it interesting. This…
