too long to read all of it, but first of all I never said it was a wow killer, I said it had potential to be, but of course pretending you can't read makes it a lot easier to argue your case. Then you assume more stuff about me like I think it is more likely to be a wow killer than not. Again you are arguing with a person you made up again. I like MMORPGs, I like classic MMORPGs, I like them to be all about hacking and slashing generic monsters and doing generic dungeons to get powerful gear that will make me better than other players. Everyone here on BL assumes that no one likes MMORPGs with grinding and questing, they are idiots and should never play MMORPGs. Also you guys just generalize them all and use vague descriptions to try to make them all look the same. WoW, LOTRO, Warhammer online, EQ2, EQ1, etc etc all have the same questing system, all have the same leveling system, they all are about getting gear and fighting generic monsters, yet it is the minor details that makes some superior to others. You seem confused on what an MMORPG is, an MMORPG is an MMO that is an RPG, if we get rid of levels and gear and go on a whole new model, we create a new genre. You obviously have never met a true MMORPG fan and you obviously aren't one yourself.
Also from now on can we keep this about people excited about Rift, and everyone that loves WoW and wants to bring WoW into this can go to the WoW thread?
Sony:
I want my key so bad ._. i got bored to all other mmos i tried, Lotro,wow,maplestory,runes of magic,world of kung fu and alot more that i cant remember
tails:
If somebody wants a generic fantasy (i hate that term) mmorpg, They play wow, Because it does it better then everything else.
Tera combat system seems neat though.

I just love the concept of the rifts, like one time I was just questing killing some fire squirrel things and demonic wolves and all of a sudden the ground starts turning black and a vortex opens above me and within seconds like 20 other people are there and we are killing swarms of demons flying out and then a dragon boss spawned and we killed that, you get XP for all of it without having to group with eachother and you get loot in the end. It is like public quests for Warhammer Online but the Rifts seem to choose populated areas to spawn so it ensures lots of players will join. They plan to have raid zones later where the rifts just spawn gigantic raid bosses and the demons take over that area slightly faster. When I think of going to a zone with giant rifts killing raid bosses all day and protecting villages all day without having to join groups or worry about if I get loot it just sounds fun as hell. As long as this game has a big community which I think it will because the beta is getting great reviews and it is very polished for a beta, it will be nonstop fun. Also what I like about this game is the job system really allows for so much different builds, although I bet there will be a lot of OP builds that people tend to follow, I am sure with how much combinations are possible we are going to see new OP builds no one even knew about months after the game is released.
