I voted yest because i truly enjoy the game, i have friends three and it is fun. I am also not racing to 50 and that helps as well. So many people rust to the And then what stage and dont take time to smell the lilly.
Nope. Cancelled yesterday. I thought it could be something to replace th game between now and GW2 but unfortunately not the case. Too easy to level, rifts are too simplistic and boring and I vow not to play any mmos with fedex quests anymore. So it looks liek I am back to waiting for Torchlight 2 and Dungeon Siege 3. In the meantime there is alwats Torchlight and Starcraft 2. I'm also going to brush up on some more Guild Wars titles for Guild Wars 2.

i cancelled yesterday too, but the reason why i did is just because i cant stand the races anymore... tried every race and got bored of all human like races in this game.... and the ones i liked belong to the faction i dont like (ex: dwarf)... i cant picture myself enjoying a game if i dont like the character im playing.....
(in gw2 ill sure roll asura or charr... in wow i didnt roll human or elves.... same with other games) in EQ2 i used to roll ratonga xD, tired of human like races and thats what Trion offers
You guys can sit around all you want and say crap about RIFT here on MMORPG.com but as for me I already have 2 copies of the game and both are paid up for 6 months. As for bein like WoW how in the hell can you guys say that. RIFT is simply .. amazing, and I have played WoW since it released and RIFT is really nothing like WoW to me. The interface might look like WoW but it ain't WoW.
The graphics, sound effects, gameplay and just general feel for the world is amazing. Havent had this much fun with a new MMO since... well .... WoW I guess. Maybe that's what they mean when they say "It's just like WoW"
I've notice a big pop drop ever since prelaunch ended. I expect a lot of people to be leaving after 1st month.
Yep, the servers are ghost towns... Everyone is leaving... They might as well close the game down now... <rolls eyes> This is TOTAL nonsense. No doubt some of those still engaged in the endless chase of the One True Game(tm) may have left(just as they will with GW2 and TOR...), but a LOT of people are still playing Rift and will continue to do so. It was never really intended as a "WoW killer". At this point, the only threat to WoW is Blizzard and/or Ghostcrawler...^^ Rift is an entertaining, well polished game. Thats all many of us are looking for at this point.
Yeah I didn't even stay for my free month. The combat is utterly boring. That's the one thing I just cannot stand in an MMO.
Too bad too, it had potential.
I should add that the quality of a game is not really reflected by its number of players. WoW is a great example of this - one of the most dumbed-down hold-your-hand brainless MMORPGs ever made and it had the most players.
I do not think i will be staying past the first month. I just changed my 3 month sub to a one month sub and i may cancel it in a week all together. The game is solid, polished and has alot going for it, but i am not sure i want to farm instances for an endgame. I have a good guild of people i know form eq2, and i am more disapointed that i will not have a game to share w/ them, then anything else.
What i do not understand is that with a leveling curve so shallow why is so little of the world deicaded to level 50's, the game needs some open dungeon crawls, a system similar to AA , and rift events that do not reset after a certain amount of time.
All in all i got my moneys worth just not enogh interest for a sub atm.
I'm glad all the people that have made it to 50 already are leaving ^.^. They can leave and the rest of us can actually enjoy the whole game instead of grinding quests as fast as we can.
What's the expire date on a game which wants to grow on recruiting bored and moaning WOW like players with the exact same PVE advancement system ?
History of the past 5 years showed the expire date can be expressed in weeks instead of months/years.
Stop exaggerating. This is no APB or Hellgate. As long as it doesnt tank as fast as DCUO it'll be fine.
There is NO miracle patch.
95% of what you see in beta won't change by launch.

No, I got to 43 on my cleric and I can't bring myselft to log in. The game is really well polished. I just don't know what it is about it that bores me so much. I'm sure Rift will have a decent following nevertheless.

I do not think i actully did half of the quests, in general i do not like grinding quests. But i did sit in vent and bull shit with people while we killed mobs for crafting goods, and i made it a point to be in every invasion i saw. When you can kill mobs in under 30 sec w/ two people and get 1k exp why quest at all.
The game is not hard to level in, and becouse there is no mentoring system if you want to play with your friends the best way is to hit level cap. I am glad that you are enjoying the game instead of grinding quests , becouse thats what i did.
Voted no because I'm tired of being perma mana drained as a 50 cleric by VKs/DOMs and I know Trion won't nerf them so I'm quitting the game. Dominators can just perma mana drain me while I'm CC'd (Keep me squirreled, drain all my mana, then have their team mates attack me while they keep perma mana draining me.). Too much unbalanced combat aspects in this game and I doubt Trion will fix them in time. Fanbois will be fanbois, as polished as rift is, there is a huge class imbalance problem which most likely will be the bane of this game..
Yes, but ironically I bought Rift so that I would have something to play instead of Guild Wars when GW2 came out, and I am still playing GW more often than Rift. So, I'm taking it one month at a time.

Very short answer: Yes.

Me and the wifey are keeping our six month subs, we are truly enjoying this game, more so than the last several games we have played.
My god has horns.... nah, I don't think he is real either.

I lasted about a week-week and a half before becoming so bored I couldn't even force myself to log on.
I am NOT saying it is a bad game, it's not, but it isn't enough for me.
Back to my old games again
No, I got to 43 on my cleric and I can't bring myselft to log in. The game is really well polished. I just don't know what it is about it that bores me so much. I'm sure Rift will have a decent following nevertheless.
I am subbed 6 months at a time. Can't beat the founders pricing

No matter how cynical you become, its never enough to keep up - Lily Tomlin
55 percnt retention is great for this site,, i bet its more like 80 with the people that dont play voting
Ill be playing at lest three months and if they make it better maybe longer
I am staying for a while. I really am enjoying this game!!! I love the lore, find the quests fun, and the world seems alive and fun to explore.
Oh boy, you're claiming a boring WoW clone, whose only unique feature (rift system) is ripped from WAR/UO/Tabula Rasa,
is better than games that aren't even out yet? These fanboys...
voted yes. Love the game.
Yes, but ironically I bought Rift so that I would have something to play instead of Guild Wars when GW2 came out, and I am still playing GW more often than Rift. So, I'm taking it one month at a time.
The Collector's edition is very nice, though.
