Rift is Wow + Runes of Magic's class system + upgraded polished graphics and a better particle system . Played  Beta a couple times, not impressed.

    Well, I for one am very thankful someone told to truth.  And not their opinion.

    Yes, the importance of the truth cannot be understated. Especially in a forum of anonymous internet users who may or may not be misrepresenting their opinion as the truth.

    All video games are a knock off of WoW, no game has legit ideas. Everquest Everquest, Warhammer, Warhammer, SWG, SWG, Guildwars 2, Guildwars 2.

    I am not impressed by your generic observations and shenanigans, neighbor. Can someone please post a new argument besides something is a knock off or a copy of something else. What happened to legitimate discussions about games? Oh wait, it's a video game forum. Never mind.

    Guys... i seriously went back to runescapes terrible graphics but constantly updated and maintained gameplay  because i got tired of the constant EQ / Wow Clones out on the market. Now if only you could actually get off your ship and explore planets in EVE.....

    Not sure about the Runes of Magic reference but the OP is basically right on the WoW + Upgraded grahphics part. He forgot the Public Quest comparison to Warhammer though.

    The ironic thing is, this is exactly what DID impress me about the game. As an ex WoW player I jumped into the beta, knew all the controls immediately and set about playing the game, and knew exactly what was going on. I saw people complaining that the controls were "ripped from WoW." I don't get how this can be bad at all, it means millions of people don't get turned off by having to figure out buttons.

    Public quests were the best part of the Warhammer PvE for me personally, except that they eventually died out when the actual quest was done. I can't see how RIFT will deal with this when lower zones empty as people level up though. Still, its a good addition and warhammer players already know the deal, and can teach others.

    Upgraded graphics are always a plus, and there is nothing really wrong with them.

    So, pretty much a spot on post by the OP, one that you can take, twist the perspective from his opinion of poor to your opinion of good, and it still works.

    I didn't know you could explore planets in Eve.  I thought you kind of just flew by them in space.  Didn't know you actually explored them.

    FarmVille in Space...the "fun" alternative to spinning ships in station.

    I miss the MMORPG genre. Will a developer ever make one again?
