A thread to talk about the MMORPG RIFT.
The MMOdventure is currently playing this for two weeks on the official server, until the 17th of May.

>What's RIFT?
A free-to-play WoW-like MMO. One of the more succesful WoW-Killers, which has been mismanaged into the ground by now.

>Site and info
https://www.trionworlds.com/rift/en/

The game is also available on Steam:

>>1718203

Let it be known, Chauncy is a bitch ass nigga

is it tolerable without patron/buying shit
don't wanna support these fags after they killed the game

could we get a role poll? tank/heal/damage/support

This game can give you some cool backgrounds, shame it doesn't look anywhere near as good when you get close to things.

Shard: Deepwood
Faction: Defiant
Guild: Clover Ascended

these locals are pretty autistic. it's great

>>1738062
I just started and it's crazy lmao, it's like I'm reading an even gayer /pol/

crashes when pressing play
that was cool while it lasted

Can we crowdfund guild vault so I can shove some runes in there for people to use on their gear? I put in 3 plat. 27 to go.

>>1737738
I haven't felt any urge to use money yet. They give you some time patron for free and I've been using the 30min cd porticulum access from it but you can live without that. You do get 40% more xp but it hasn't exactly been slow to level. With this boost I'm skipping zones.

https://telarapedia.fandom.com/wiki/Planar_Goods#Rare_Planar_Goods
List of rare planar goods vendors in each zone. They sell good essences for planarite and good gear for void stones. Recommend checking them out when you hit the required level. Make sure to look at defiant vendors, not guardian vendors.

>>1738202
Turns out there's a vendor in Meridian that sells all of it. Adventure dealer for equipment and other guy for essences and such. Pay attention to the automatic filters it sets for you when you open the vendor.

>Everyone's having fun while I'm writing my thesis
This sucks

>>1738247
What's your thesis about

Ascended, do a barrel roll

>>1738278
Reconstructing and measuring the expansion of mining landscapes with archaeological material

Their ears are so nasty

Bunch of runes in the guild bank vault. Take what you need and use them to enchant your gear.

>>1737772
You can change your role at will.

>>1737772
>>1738360
As long as people are willing to swap for healing or tanking we should be fine.

I do like the setpieces in this game

>>1738394
graphics are kinda nice

it's new enough that it's not too blocky but not so new that everything is smeared in vaseline and runs like ass

well lotro is laggy as fuck even with the new servers so maybe its time to try this shit out, how is the f2p?

>>1738724
Fucking terrible

>>1738202
From what I remember, RIFT never had any strong dedicated wikipedia even during its height of activity so take whatever that website says with a big grain of salt.

Small blue man.

>>1738929
low grafics make that left model look out of a completely different game

>>1738938
Small blue man (Ultra HD) (60 FPS) (Remastered).

>>1738755
is it worse than guild wars 2 where you can't even get a single mount?

>>1739017
Classes and inventory space are locked behind paywalls, those are the worst offenders.

PSA: leave your default guild through the shift+G menu so we can accept your application

>>1738787
It helped me find the NPCs.

>>1739017
Rift is way better than GW2. GW2 combat is alright but everything surrounding it sucks. Rift is the opposite. Combat isn't that good but the rest of the game is pretty decent. Like >>1739025 said some locked classes and limited inventory space are the biggest downsides. You still got 8 souls per archetype to play with and inventory is something you can deal with once you get a couple bigger bags.

My memories of Rift weren't very good but I've been having a lot of fun so far.

i know im a dwarf but this guy is mogging me hard

>>1739258
there's this girl mob at warden's point that will be quadruple your size

why do i have patron on my old account

>>1739258
did you make a guardian?

>>1739231
I disagree, everythinh about Rift is WoW but worse

dungeons are 5 mans. expert dungeons are at the base game or that expansion's level cap and is an upscaled version of a dungeon featuring additional bosses. these begin at level 50.
there is an expert-only dungeon at 50 with 11 whole bosses wowee.
there is four 10 man raids and three 20 man raids at the 50 threshold. i think downscaling to 50 and trying expert dungeons and 10 mans would be feasible if there is any interest to knock it out and continue on, experience the content.

>>1739437
as a first goalpost/threshold whatever*

>suddenly guild all warriors and barely any mages or clerics online
WTB healers

>>1739472
good thing warriors are great healers

>>1739353
uh what

>Due to a well known exploit that is being used by a small % of players, the economy is very broken. The exploit is used by players to earn infinite amounts of platinum, thus these players have hundreds of thousands of plat and have used that plat to increase the prices of everything on the Auction House or traded.

>>1739542
what are the steps to this exploit so that I can avoid doing it

>>1739556
there were 2 18 slot bags on the ah for 5 plat
I have about 300 plat and buying low level garbage seems like a good idea

>>1739542
There's a guy named Sherlockholmes(?) who will hand out 10k plat to new players, as long as they enter his dimension and go down his water slide (no that is not a euphemism for anything lol)

Just posting a couple screenshots of our recent escapades.

Man I miss being able to post multiple images at once...

>>1739542
What funny about this situation is that Gamigo, being the scummy company that they are, decided to have a REX (tradeable credit item) sale immediately after the currency exploit was made public

>>1738038
Faction doesn't matter. Play whichever side you want. You can crossfaction group.

Rifting.

More rifting.

O_O

>>1739353
SOVL

did the servers go down?

>>1739979
yeah, RIP my exp potion.

right as i went to start it goes down, pfft.

>>1739353
Love stuff like this that shows off the scope of the game world.

Uhhhh

>>1740022
might just be because the servers are down

Some of you might remember this from launch day, glad I had it saved!

What the fuck, I was tiring of this game and now I can't play it I really miss it, LET ME IN LET ME IN LET ME IN

>>1737579 (OP)
>The MMOdventure
Maybe stop with this retardation, what's the point when people will just end up in dead guilds in a dead game when you get bored?

>>1740130
Idiot?

>>1740130
>you need to play mmos for 1000s of hours

>>1740130
Not sure you understand how this works, we only spend 2 weeks in the game, so everyone know its an ephemeral experience

>>1740145
If I didn't understand why the fuck would I tell you it's retarded?

>>1740148
Because you missed the point, its okay little nonny, dont get mad

>>1740150
The point is retarded, that's what I'm telling you.

>>1740130
Because this is the only time they'll get to experience otherwise dead games with other people? And so that the people playing these games for 2 weeks can discuss shit without a disc*rd? I don't get your point unless your trying to be a janny and argue these threads take up space which is retarded when this board is already dead as fuck.

NA Shards Extended Downtime

Hello,
the NA shards downtime has been extended with no estimate.

The reason for this extension is due to an issue that is preventing players from getting past the first loading screen and into shard/character select. During this time, you may get stuck at 19% loading when trying to connect to the NA region.

Please rest assured we're already working on resolving this issue and we'll update you as soon as shards available once more.

We thank you for your patience!

>>1740158
damm maybe retardbro had a point. thread for game we can't even play. it's over.

there any guilds if i don't wanna play with you spergs

>newfag shows up to vaguepost
big surprise there

>>1740156
The point is that it's pointless if you actually want to play an MMO.

It's only meant to promote your shit Discord or general or whatever the fuck you have so you can circlejerk in it. It's not for MMORPG players, just for jerkers.

>>1740181
meds

>discord
>newfag shows up to shitpost about non-existent problems because he's a newfag who did not lurk and only spends time on 4chan ruining discussion
big surprise there

>>1740186
>>1740183
>>1740180
Definitely doesn't sound like a circlejerk lmfao.

>>1740187
Definitely doesn't sound like a newfag "lmfao"

It just so happened that a braindead shittstirrer showed up at the same time the servers went down. Just convenient timing.

>>1740194
Servers have been down for 5 hours now, it might be over

>just got into the game
>ok lets play the game today
>servers are fucked for hours
well this is always online for you, hope its not like tribe nine and it stays like that for like 2 days

>>1740203
>2 days

"How is Shard Stability?

— EU – The EU shards are fine.
— NA – The NA shards had instability for most of 2024, this has been fixed and shards are now stable."

server back up

>>1740269
don't make me look

>>1740273
someone posted it in the mmo thread instead of here for some reason

>>1740181
There's a reason the games are dead.

>>1740174
Go play something else if you don't wanna play with us.

rift giving us the gameplay we really want

>>1740347

It's him

>>1739862
what

>>1740456

>>1740486

>people actually paying for patron
lol

>>1740553
it gives it to you for free for a week or so

its too bad rift hasn't gotten a console release, i'd play it if i could use a controller with it.

in as kangzgoldstein

>>1740557
Where??

>>1740562
I'm doing my best here

>>1740560
try steam's inbuilt controller thing
or joy2key

>>1740626
thx senpai

>>1740630
joy2key sucks and i'd rather wait for native support.

>>1740638
>joy2key sucks
that's fair
>native support for anything involving RIFT
lol

>>1740645
i mean you never know

>>1740386
>Weeble and Sneedo
Cannot make this shit up

Gonna post some more screenshots of rifting together.

Okay wheres my plat?

Tired of the mines, anon attempts sudoku.

me in the back

>>1740569
I think it was some quest in the first zone, not tutorial zone

>>1740647
game's on life support it's not going to receive any further development

we need a new /v/ thread

You guys should go play Anarchy Online and crash the servers because of the twenty extra connections.

Made a very simple platforming challenge in my house, come visit, rifters.

Rich guild member here, he can decorate his house with a huge slab of pure gold...

I think we bullied him too hard

>>1740958
Do IAs really give that much xp? I tried doing one and it didn't seem that crazy

>Post your IGN
Fucking glowies are out to get me.

>>1741173
well done mister architect

What did Rift mean by this?

>>1741398
fucking kek, that sounds like someone at the company was getting around a filter

Nightmare rifting.

Some cool town illuminated by the moonlight.

>>1741724
Some of this game is quite nice, it makes me feel bad about its fate

>>1741721
What the fuck is a nightmare rift?

>>1741755
It was really buggy on launch, the questing got really tedious with how much of them there are and it had the same problem as all wannabe WoW killers, many came to check the game out but most nope'd back to WoW. I was surprised how good the game feels now. Clearly they put a lot of work into it post-launch but it was too late at that point.

>>1741398
New slur just dropped.

How deep are people into the game? I finally have time to play but I'm only level 20 and feel like nobody will be around to do dungeons with. When does the raiding start?
>>1741793
If I remember it's a rift where it summons larger waves of enemies every 30 seconds or so

>>1741811
First raids are at 50 I think but the game has up and down scaling mechanics and our level spread is quite wide. Check the guild roster. Many would be willing to run the lower dungeons with you as well.

huge gaming just happened in freemarch

Huge nightmare rifting.

HUGE bugs for HUGE rifting.

>>1741856
I forgot my title was so obnoxious

>>1741861
I wish titles would go above or below the character's name.

>>1741822
>tfw missed out
I gotta be logging in earlier.

1 open slot for a dungeon group.

>>1741811
the mentor/sidekick system lets you change level to group with anyone else. we've had dungeon groups with an initial 20+ difference in level spread within the group so don't feel left out. you can get your level all around the same.
>>1741814
at level 50, there are four 10man raids and three 20man raids.

triple nightmare rift in stonefield

LOG ON WE ARE RIFTING

Hag erotic

>>1742085
that's not how you shoot a bow. dumb hag.

Destroying smelly refugees with my fellow centaurs.

>>1741998
10man should be doable but do we have any hope of filling a 20man?

>>1742153
our best method of experiencing 20man raids will most likely be with a smaller group of higher level

Indoor rain.

>>1741811
There's still more than a week to go so I wouldn't sweat it too much. IA is soulless and boring as fuck imo, but it can catch you up a bit

>>1742395
>There's still more than a week to go so I wouldn't sweat it too much.
a week for what?

Last time I saw him wasn't that long ago, but this rifter put on some weight since then...

>>1742468
youre a big guy

>>1742435
Until the tourist tards fuck off from the game and leave it to die.

yeah ok let's give this a try, invite Saucesisila to the guild

>>1742815
Guild is clover ascended. You need to leave the starter guild. After that open the guild menu and search for it. You should be able to send a message and someone will add you shortly.

>>1742468
I'm bulking.

>>1741793
>nightmare rift
A special rift as opposed to the usual elemental rifts. Each wave is on a timer. You need to kill the waves within the time limit for BONUS. Compared to the usual rifts the nightmare rift goes as long as you can continuously complete the waves in time (though it seems you can fail a few and still continue). Mobs get stronger wave after wave while you are down leveled. You also get way more planarite and other rewards (in freemarch you get several thousand planarite in a nightmare rift vs like 30 for a normal rift). If you see one(appears as single twitching eyeball on map) just give a shout in guild chat.

>>1742814
lmao you still here retard?

>>1743465
Lolwat, seriously? What's even the point then? Is there a cash shop thing to let you reset the dailies?

For any dimension items you don't want, don't shit up the guild house, I've made a dedicated house for dumping trash, with permissions for anyone in the guild to place/retrieve objects.
Search for "Trash Dump" in the list of guildmates' houses.

Feel free to dump anything you don't want in there, or take items if you like them. If it gets full, I'll destroy some building blocks, those suck anyway.

>>1744072
>no money
Stingy NPC!

There are ghosts all throughout the game

That you will only see when you open your mind's eye

Good pics despite shit game. Cheers anons.

>>1745600
>shit game.
dumb loser

The game has some neat monster designs at least

I hid 4 cheese wedges in the guild area. Default-sized, can be found while controlling your character (no need for freecam), hidden in default assets (not in items we placed).
If anyone's bored, you can try finding them. Pic-related, although this one doesn't count, it's what a cheese wedge looks like in-game.

>>1746095
Cool idea, found one.

fuck I guess I missed out, too late by a week or whatever. There's no way the clovers are going to want to go back and do any of this dumb shit after already doing it once

>>1746461
Join us for a BONUSSSS

I'm considering starting tomorrow or the day after. We can hold hands if you want haha.

>>1746461
nothing has been done together aside from rifts in the open world and some 1-50 dungeons
>>1746474
he can play guardian. all he misses out on is being together in the main city or faction quest hubs which is mostly redundant after 50

>>1746477
Good job, that is indeed all of them.

Oh fuck. This RIFT image is finally relevant to post.

when's we's raiding, boss?

>>1750474
idunno, but I'll be playing for 7 hours or so and I'm (almost) ready to get my ass kicked

I hit 50 last night, I'm ready to wipe

Holy shit is this game ugly. I was not prepared. Add anvi to the guild please. Also, how do I stop falling through the floor?

>>1750982
leave the guild you get automatically added to

>>1750982
Not enough children in it for you?

>>1750982
Environments look pretty cool from a distance so they make for nice backgrounds, it's a shame everything looks ugly up close.
My real problem though is that it's unbearably boring.

>>1750982
I think it looks good actually.

My retarded gorilla son and I

>>1751010
The only thing that looks bad is combat because of the skill effects. Some of the playable races' faces looked a bit weird. Environments, monster designs and even the armors look nice. I was surprised how well its graphics have aged.

>>1751099
I was pleasantly surprised by the armor design in the game

>>1751046
weird looking cat

>>1750994
Too much melanin in my skin, rather.

>>1751099
>faces looked a bit weird
Was a good bit of this, and poor character customization. I'll give praise where praise is due - the UI super clean. Very comfy to navigate as opposed to just about every other game we've played yet.

>>1751184
Full UI customization is nice. Move anything anywhere.

>>1751184
I was able to fiddle with the sliders to make my character look quite nice in my opinion. Would've been nice to have a little more control. The triangle of adjustments controls too many parameters at once.

Not quite the spacescape I was promised

I tried to decorate a Dimension and make it feel comfy, don't think I succeeded but it'll have to do

>>1751469
Looks comfy to me.
I want to make a comfy room like yours that's accessible after my last puzzle but I kinda suck at building aesthetic shit so it won't be as good. I could do something fun instead but idk, there's not much time left.

>>1751469
very comfy indeed nice job

>>1751479
anyone that's going to invest into rectangles is going to become filthy rich over the next few months. the demand for rectangles has never been this high since this game has started.

>>1751494
Rectangles are a newbie trap cause you can get them from the gacha boxes. The real business niggas are putting their stonks into the rugs.
From rugs to riches, baby.

This anon's got a whole harem. And a cat.

And a market.

Jumpuzzle in all of its glory.

The funhouse conclusion.

Here's the solution to the third puzzle.
Not sure if everyone got it right, some people managed to cheese it.
The orange transparent platform is cheese shaped, so you have to choose the cheese trapdoor. The platform is actually invisible but you can probe it by running into it.

This was quite confusing...

This damn maze...

you must eat all the eggs

The alternate path.

>>1755826
I'm pretty sure that I stepped on the wooden platform and it pointed to the middle-right door which worked for me. better fix it :^)

A little bit yeah.

is that the event world boss? dude was megapopular during Storm Legion

>>1758690
Yeah the big level 60 event, it clearly had more budget put into it than any of the level 70 content.

>>1758685
Why?

>>1759964
NTA but Emil Chronicle Online is complete ass and I'm now aware of what kind of group the MMOdventure is and how they "play" games. Cool idea but playing with anons is always a bad time.

NTA either but a questline I never finished was bugging me so i'm going back to finish it.

>aware of what kind of group the MMOdventure is and how they "play" games
We had the same type of whining when RIFT got picked.
I agree that anons are retarded but for different reasons.

>>1760504
What reasons are those? This project emphasizes socialization over gameplay.
Rift FAILED to get a mere FIVE people for expert dungeons or TEN people for 10 man raids.
Dragon Nest, by far the most popular game out of this entire event, with anime girls and upskirts and a fucking hot spring, FAILED to get 12 people for raids.
The core group involved with this event does not enjoy MMOs as a genre. That's why they make movie and minigame nights so they have an excuse to hang out with each other without playing for the current voted game.

>>1760733
the population always falls off so it is hard to do any of that content
it only takes like 10 hours to get 50 in rift though
but the same clique had a massive meltdown at anyone doing IA and actually leveling so they could play the game

>>1760733
>Rift FAILED to get a mere FIVE people for expert dungeons or TEN people for 10 man raids
So what? We regularly had dungeon parties, nightmare rift and invasion raids. What does it matter it wasn't expert dungeons or something? We had fun as a group playing the game. What else do you expect out of the project? If your goal in an MMO is to reach the endgame as fast as possible that's okay, but there are multiple ways to enjoy the game.

>The core group involved with this event does not enjoy MMOs as a genre
Well, it's a shit genre. But I disagree people don't enjoy it.

>they make movie and minigame nights so they have an excuse to hang out with each other
Kinda true, but so what? It's just two evenings out of 14 days and it's a nice change of pace. It's also in the spirit of the project to explore some niche movies and dead games.

>This project emphasizes socialization over gameplay
I disagree. Yes, there are people that are there for the social aspect only, but most people are gaming hard. Different people enjoy different things.
Also, the socialization is a core feature of the MMOs.

>What reasons are those?
It's people bitching about everything that doesn't go their way. Like a wrong game winning the polls or people having fun the wrong way. But MMOs were always filled with whiny retards so this actually makes for an authentic experience.

>>1760740
>clique had a massive meltdown at anyone doing IA
Another case of bitching about people having fun the wrong way. IA is fucking cancer though. I'm glad I didn't have to spend 10 hours grinding this shit just to play with others.

>>1760797
>So what?
Thanks for the genuine conversation. Not going to bother reading the rest of this bad faith nonsense.
>>1740519

>>1760733
then why isn't your faggot ass on there playing

>>1760797
Are you the guy that hit 70 a week before everyone even got to 50?

Thanks for the Plat friendo

I got one ugly mount in my Trove of Mount sign in bonus

>>1761453
Weird self-own.

>>1767129
Better than the chocolate horse, it's just a horse.

>still hanging in the forest of SCAT

I hate the faggot dragon so goddamn much

>no "what if rift was popular on /vm/" 10 man raid

Goodbye Wow killer, in the end you were wow killed

>gamigo did a twitch stream and confirmed they have resumed active development of the game

We did this

>>1794054
>Throughout May – The CM team have continued to stream Rift every week or so for the past few months. During a stream at the end of May they announced that they plan to be fixing bugs, then set up a ‘Bugs and You’ channel in the official discord. They also confirmed in the discord general chat that there are actually Devs that will be trying to fix these bugs. Please do note that it is HIGHLY unlikely that anything will come of these.. We have had small teasers of hope from Gamigo multiple times over the years and each one has fizzled and disappeared into nothingness.
:c

>>1794061
Someone in chat called the cadrift guy out for wanting the game to stay dead, apparently he has a bit of an ego.

>>1794084
How did that play out?

>>1794102
They had a slapfight about who had more achievements

>>1794106
Lol. That sounds petty.
If Gamigo have been fags before, I don't see any bias in pointing out a pattern.

>>1794112
Even Cadrift had to acknowledge that the corgi rift event was a step in the right direction though

>>1794123
Be nice if they do anything of note over the next several months.

I swear I have a Team fortress 2 item that gives me a hat in this game i've had it for nearly 2 decades now.

>>1794724
Yeah that's where I first heard about Rift, was the sun bat from TF2

>>1794106
I miss Rift's chat.

>>1795653
still going strong with several wackos going at it nightly

>>1795674
Are you still playing?

>10th June 2025 — The CM team did a stream and teased a ‘patch‘ for next week. The next day they confirmed that “it’s not going to be a content patch just yet. There’s also a small chance that it might not be next week and it’ll need to be delayed due to pending testing to ensure functionality.”

>>1805556
We're back boys
Interesting thing is Gamigo have been posting job advertisements looking for a dev for their "landmark mmo IP"

People still playing? Cool, I'll reinstall

>>1810760
My characters are locked on the Trial Only servers, RIP

>>1811284
Do they no longer offer a transfer to live servers?

>>1811284
>trial only
wat

>>1810760
>People still playing?
There are three of us I think. One actually progressing with endgame, one doing old content stuff and one fishing.

>>1811433
Apparently not, I got an automated response from support. I wish they put out an email about them closing more servers before the end of last year, but they want you to visit the website for that kind of news.

>>1811476
They're closed and only reopen them for promotional events from what I read.

>>1811520
That's pretty cool, I only got one character through the base game and just dipped my toe into Storm Legion that ramped up the difficulty quite a bit.
My main was a Cleric with builds for Tanking, Healing, and DPS.

>>1811554
>My main was a Cleric with builds for Tanking, Healing, and DPS.
Cleric Chads keep winning

What should I play, I don't want a cookie cutter meta build but I don't want to be stuck with a bottom of the barrel combo either, I have no idea what I'm doing

>>1811554
yeah them closing shards for good is a total dick move and los tthem a lot of users

>>1811586
Doesn't matter too much, just do you want to be a sword man, a magic man, a priest man or a sneaky thief man. Then you can play with the souls system to find a combo you like.

>>1811586
Several Souls (skill/talent trees) are behind paywalls so what you have access to largely depends on the class you play and the archetype you want to play.

>17th June 2025 — An ACTUAL UPDATE has been staged! This means that it is sat on a server ready to go live. The changes include a new mount, some file name updates and coding
>The update will go live on the 24th June 2025.

WE'RE SO BACK

>>1811586
Resetting your souls is practically free so it doesn't matter too much which class you pick unless you want to metafag.

MMOdventure is still playing or they moved to another game already?

>>1812231
they are like 3 games later

The Defiler soul for the Cleric is still the most fun in my opinion, it was in a weird spot before they buffed it but now it's a good combination of DoT and burst damage.

>>1812231
they didn't even really play it when ti was the current game but it gained a lot of attention from /v/ when posted and got a few people into the game

>>1812231
No MMOventure dropped it halfway through the first week, but some people have stuck around for some reason.

>>1813014
>for some reason
inorite? why not play another broken anime game?

>>1811433
According to a random on the Rift discord, Gamigo broke the servers instead of just locking them and corrupted the character data. Backups would have been with whatever host they used previously but at this point it's deleted, so now any old characters you have are in permanent limbo.

>>1817627
>entire questline around saving him from bullies
He showed up in another later zone, can't remember which offhand.

>>1817841
He's the guardians quest subject for their saga iirc so he should appear in most zones. Defiant get that bitch obsessed with death magic.

What's your favorite rift element?

>>1823824
I like earth with all the stacks of gold and treasure, a shame they just went all in on Crucia instead

Rift just got its first patch in years, and it's not just a new mount.
https://www.trionworlds.com/rift/en/2025/06/24/june-24-2025-patch-notes/

>>1825587
And has caused a lot of issues, lmao

>>1813014
yah bruh dfey betta drop dat shit fukk da gud gamez lez blay blaz blu 3.0 hubbuballahuakbar

Amazing how one little patch update makes people return to the game.

>>1826759
What kind of bugs?

>>1838460
A lot of people are facing extreme pop in now, as well as loading in under the map

>>1838460
View distance across all settings was basically cut in half, so you have a serious chance of just stepping on enemies out of nowhere.

How many 70s we got so far?

>>1840756
I'm taking my time.

>>1841452
dis nigga RP walkin

Just under halfway through the game

World definitely feels empty; the lore surrounding the game has a good premise, and the sub-regions story quests play out in a decent-enough to make you have impact on the outcome.
It definitely would feel way better to have more people impacting the regions as you all work toward defending Telara.

Being a demigod invoking the souls of heroes of the past is a pretty cool trope

I haven't looked too far into the cash shop so far, but it also has not been pushed straight into my face to see what I COULD buy, which I unfortunately have to appreciate in the current market.

My biggest gripe is that you can tell combat animations and weapon swing effects were never really a thought. I'm sure I'll have further gripes after actually progressing and looking into the shity SaaS offerings

>>1842085

>>1842085
>the lore surrounding the game has a good premise

The 1-50 lore is really good, Storm legion isnt up to par, then it gets worse as it goes on. it really follows the same path as WoW were they exchange classic fantasy for rick and morty quipping

Also Icewatch are the biggest chumps in the lore

>>1842085
Yell if you need some (in-game) cash

Every day in the Rift discord someone new joins and expresses interest in the game only for the oldheads to try and drive them off from the game, then complain about it being dead
???

>>1850703
You aren't allowed to like the game.
The game is bad and gamigo is bad but also they want to talk to the people they don't play the game with and an old employee still sits around and gamigo won't hire them.

Why they aren't banned for scaring off newbies is absurd, it's fucking wild

/vm/ 70 Expert dungeons WHEN

>>1852027
When I get off my ass and start multiboxing

>>1851350
>an old employee still sits around and gamigo won't hire them

That guy is always fishing for attention and telling lies, he claimed he could have fixed the plat exploit years ago but someone dug up a post about him saying he had no idea how to reproduce it, which is it fuckboy?
