Some classes in rift you can put everything in one macro and just press one button over and over. This gets boring. I'm thinking of the shaman class.
People say, 'well don't put everything in one macro'
You do more damage with a macro cause you …
If a game is very popular it attacks a wide demographic including everything from children to old people.
Global chat channels tend to have a lot of jerks in them.
When you hear a game has a 'good community' it either is struggling to get more pla…
From what I've seen, GW2 is going to reward the player for their motor skills. If you can react fast enough, dodge, etc, you can defeat bigger and badder opponents.
They also said something about having an easy mode for those who lack motor skill…

Second Life is free to play.
If you want to do the really cool stuff you need an account and some land, but you can get a really good feel for the game without spending a dime.
I hope they allow freeps access to lots of content.
I tried LotRO but pretty much all the content after level 25 you have to pay for.
Or at least a way to earn enough points to buy it all, even if it's a grind.

4. lots of content.
5. some …

I don't use the cash shops. I had to stop LotRO to wait for a sale on content.
EQ2 is a great f2p in a time killing sense.

I have yet to find a combat system as good as WoW's which is amazing because WoW is an old game now. I think a lot of it has to do with how lag free WoW is compared to other games. But in WoW you press a key and it happens while i…

There are 2 kinds of Rift quests. The 'Story' quests that are more interesting are highlighted for the player with a brown background while the run of the mill quests have a blue background.
I read the quests with the brown backgrounds. It's som…
Playing the beta influenced my decision not to buy the game. It just wasn't different enough, new enough or had more content than the other games.
So in my case it cost them a sale.
Rift has boring leveling because they only have 1 starter zone, 2 if you want to play the other faction.
So you level up a melee cleric and you do all the quests in the starter zone. You see a bard and that looks fun so you do the starter quests …

If a game is fun a very diverse community will develope, kids, adults, women, arsehats.
If a game isn't percieved as not fun, only the diehards will remain. These are often called good communities.
