re: RIFT going Free-to-Play

http://www.riftgame.com/en/promo/freetoplay.php

From what I can see, their F2P model is similar to LotRO's in terms of quality-of-life perks for subscribers (i.e. bag slots, currency cap, etc.). However, F2Pers will have access to the whole world, unlike in LotRO. Also, PvP will be open to F2Pers in Rift as well -- a definite plus for me.

Is anyone else planning to try out RIFT come June? I will probably dip my feet in it, and would love to level with friends.

re: RIFT going Free-to-Play

There are a few of us on Faeblight that have formed a small guild.
You are most likely to find me on Aurowyn, Kyriann or Ellowen. Please add me to friends.


You can play now for free but there are restriction including zone and level.
There is also a promotion from Raptr.com that you can get the game, expansion and 30 days for free just by installing their app and playing for 10 hours.

re: RIFT going Free-to-Play

I have a level 30-something who has been inactive for over a year. I might have to dust off the account and see what's changed in Rift. And LMBers to play with? Awesome! My one problem with Rift is that I didn't know anyone in the game, and got very lonely there. :)

Good to know there's interest. I'll post my character name next month, when I manage to create it, so we can all find each other. :)

This is what I'm doing now, Kyrian. I might end up subscribing to Rift if I find friends there: it doesn't feel right to just play for free, artists have to make a living, too!

Since it seems we have enough rogues, I'm working my dark thane warrior, Celegwyn. :)

re: RIFT going Free-to-Play

Oh dear ... so did everyone move on from GW2 before I even got around to trying it?

Oops, I forgot to ask, are we Guardians or Defiants? Or does it not matter?

re: RIFT going Free-to-Play

I am a guardian. But also have a defiant alt that is collecting dust ATM. Factions don't matter as much as they used to. In fact the higher level zones are neutral. With the new update coming in June, there is supposed to be the option to purchase a faction change. Looking forward to seeing u all in game :)
