Rift

For those MMOers among us, I recently got into the beta for Rift. I'm pretty impressed thus far. Their talent trees are pretty amazing and unique. Essentially there are only 4 classes, but each class has 8 trees to choose from. 3 of those 8 trees can be active at a given time. There are absolutely no limitations on which trees you can mix and match. I'm not sold yet, but thus far it feels like a far more polished version of Warhammer Online with a little bit of WoW influence in there. Here's the website: http://www.riftgame.com/en/

I'll keep you posted. I think it's Belmont that I've been playing on, but don't hold me to that.

Ended up ditching Belmont and going to Lotham for the open beta. Belmont seems to be full every hour of hour day unfortunately.

For release we're thinking Briarcliff (PvP). My brother and his friend Jayare will be joining us. We're still trying to figure out which faction. It's basically come down to super bland religious fanatics with instant battleground queues vs pretty cool technological quasi-bad guys.

Alright, I don't know if any of you care at this point, but we'll be going Defiant on Briarcliff.

So after having played it some more, are you still impressed Fritz? Is this game worth getting? At 10$/month I am tempted.

I'm loving it. The rift events are an excellent next generation from Warhammer's Public Quests. We ended up having to go to Dayblind. Briarcliff's wait time was over 9 hours.

I bought that game last night, but your server is full already so I won't be going there. I also am not as much into PvP, so I'll probably end up on a PvE-RP server.

So once the game releases (once headstart ends), do our characters reset?
