There is no bard in WoW, but there was in EQ. Likewise the Beastlord.

I tried Rift, it was clean and easy to play, but there was no hook. The pros of being able to play three "souls" at once are obviously evident, but where it the reward in knowing that you play a class? There isn't one, because every single player in Rift that choose your calling can also play that class (soul). For me, it cheapens the experience.

Short and sweet, Rift is the best thing to come out since EQ2. There is a lot to like, but for me at least, who has played nearly everything of consequence it lacks the hook that makes it so different from WoW that I want to make the change.

Your mileage may vary, consult a doctor before starting any MMO program.

Wait a minute. I thought we lived in a train locker?

All hail K. All hail K.

Thanks!

There is a relatively vibrant discussion about news going on in the forums. This is the first time that I've been told that we have duplicate items. We do cover news on both an industry and a by game level. Perhaps you are seeing a news post from the main site as well as one from the community site?

Mail me directly and perhaps we can get this figured out.

I have a feeling that you are going to hear something in the next 30 days.

Sometimes "neverending" isn't a good thing, but in this case I believe that it is. ;)
