RIFT: The Elemental Planes UNLEASHED!

Rift the Online Adventure Game


RIFT is a newly released MMORPG game developed by a fairly new company, Trion. RIFT is not and ordinary MMO. RIFT sets an example for future MMORPG’s because it has imagined something that has never been done before in an MMO in a large scale. Once a Rift opens, tons of monsters and other creatures seeking to destroy you flow out. It is the player’s job to stop the Rift from destroying the towns in the region. You may log in one day and find that all the NPC’s (non-player characters) are dead, and you cannot turn in your quests. When a Rift is defeated players will get loot based on their performance and their participation, not on some random loot roll.

The class systems mixed with invasions make RIFT score high on the top game raters across the world. One is MMORPG.com which gave it 8.7 out of 10. I hope to see RIFT evolve more in the future. I would like to see RIFT add more dungeons and quest lines that make people work together, not just Rifts. People may get bored of doing Rifts, and gathering loot 24/7.

Over all, the articles written about Rift make the game look very decent. One video log about it states that RIFT is an ever changing game world. One minute everything can be peaceful and dandy, the next the sky blackens and monsters pour out from multiple Rifts at once. RIFT is a perfect blend of chaos, confusion, mayhem, fun, and fantasy.

If RIFT keeps up on listening to its players, adding new scenarios for RIFT’s, and strengthens the already fantastic class system, RIFT will surely be an MMO that competes with big shots such as World of Warcraft and Lord of The Rings Online.
