I'm quite impressed so far with the head tracking in the Rift. Once you put it on you'll understand what all the hype is about.
However it's not perfect.
1. Screen door effect. The resolution needs a bump to 4k. Reading small writting can be diffi…

PnP RPGs is what got me interested in MMOs and in the EQ1 days. Over the last year I quit playing MMOs because I wanted a more social and engaging experience. Didn't find that with the current crop of MMOs. Then I found Roll20, an online table top w…
I've moved on. I've been DMing games using the Roll20 site. Don't get more sandbox than Dungeons and Dragons. I pop in here once in a while to see whats going. I don't plan to try any new games other than Landmark or EQ Next any time soon.

TOTAL FILM: "Are you happy for new Star Wars tales to be told after you're gone?"
LUCAS: "I've left pretty expl…
I played EQ2 more than any other MMO. The quest lines like Heritage. Legendary, and Signiture were and probably still the best in the biz. Those quests could take you months to complete if not years. They were carefully crafted and well placed in th…
It stems from people having a win-lose mindset in terms of economics which is their own psyche projecting their assumptions on how economic exchanges work. Rather it's a win-win scenario, players get to play in a sandbox for free and SOE reaps the p…
We can argue what "alpha" means but SOE has made it clear that the game is unfinished and buggy. They want us "alpha" testers to help develope the game. If you don't agree with this state of affairs they are offering full refunds to those who misund…
