Five Reasons Why RIFT is Different (Better?) Than World of Warcraft

The RIFT open beta test is upon us! As thousands of adventurers get set to brave the Planes of Telara – I sat down with developer Trion Worlds to find out just what makes RIFT so different, and perhaps even better than it’s biggest competitor – World of Warcraft.

"no right way to play a class"

We will see about that....
I guess as long as you have fun and can get things done you're doing it right. But it won't take long for someone to find that one spec/setup for each class that will beat the pants off of the other specs.

yep, exactly what i was going to say. i could tell after a few hours of playing that i was getting a ton of redundant abilities and inferior ones. i was pretty much locked into about 4 or 5 spells.

i ended up deleting rift after the 2nd day of playin the beta. it's just not fun. i don't understand why publishers are willing to spend the tens of millions of dollars it takes to create an MMO when these developers basically just keep trying to make the next WoW. the only way a new MMO is going to take over is if they completely reinvent the wheel.
