Jan 31st
When the next patch hits there are going to be some major changes to PvP in Rift. So I’m going to take a moment here to go over these impending changes.
Prestige Rank Overhaul
The first change you might notice logging in after the update will be a serious increase More >
Chronicles… Past, Present, and Future…
Jan 21st
Pretty much since I first heard about Chronicles coming to Telara, I was excited. Mainly because my adventures in Lord of the Rings Online were done largely through Skirmishes. If you’re not familiar with that game, the Skirmish system was a bit more fleshed out than our current Chronicles system. More >
The Next Chapter of Telara
Jan 12th
It seems like just yesterday that I’d come to discover Rift, via Rift Watchers, no less. In terms of age, Rift is still a very young MMO, having not even seen it’s first anniversary yet. Some may argue that in it’s short lifespan Telara has already seen it’s glory days, More >
Contact Form Fixed and a Question Answered: Are We Professionals?

Rift Open Discussion: 5 Weeks Out
Jan 23rd
It’s been about a week since Beta 4 and there has been an explosion of videos, guides, and first impression pieces popping up everywhere on the internet. There’s so much information that it’s almost overwhelming. While this was expected when the NDA dropped, it was surprising to me to see More >

I am a long time fan of pvp. Much like the consequences of permadeath add to the joy of overcoming obstacles, pvp gives an heightened feeling to my leveling and questing experience. I love the danger of knowing that at any moment the enemy could come romping over the horizon, locking their sights More >

Jan 5th
Hey Guys,
I added this in a comment to the last post. It was in response to commenter Heretica who felt a little let down that I didn’t get specific about what I meant. This is what I wrote to her; it’s not all-inclusive, so feel free to add anything else More >
What’s the Deal With End Game?
Dec 18th
“What do you do after you hit the level cap in “Game X”?
That is a common question asked throughout the MMO community, especially as launch of a new MMO gets closer. While we’re still a few months off from this little game known as Rift, there has been a lot More >
Culture Clash
Dec 16th
It’s happening again. A “kind of a big deal” game is prepping for release and the forums are alive with excitement. And bickering. Lots of bickering. Take this 200+ page long thread, for example. The author doesn’t want any kind of threat or DPS meters in his game and lashes More >
Guardians vs Defiant: Social Observation or Close to the Mark?
Dec 14th
*A Note Before We Begin: A commenter on the Rift forums commented that this article reads too much into things. That may be true. When I read through the lore, it’s hard to ignore how many obvious parallels have been drawn. Somewhere at Trion, there’s a writing team who wants More >
