Honestly, used to play this game a ton. After being burnt out of WoW and down on money, this was an amazing alternative. I loved the game, played it to endgame, raided, geared, grinded for everything. Then, the first expansion came out. I was excited, like a little kid. Then, I saw gear locked behind a paywall. I saw whole slots for gear locked behind a paywall. Souls for my class, which wound up getting me kicked out of top raiding groups since I didn't have them, locked behind a paywall. I hoped to god this trend wouldn't continue, but alas, it did. Everytime I see RIFT giving out things, I keep hoping that it might be something useful. But no, it's not. It doesn't matter if I upgrade my raid gear, I can't use it. My options are grind for a year to unlock the gear slots (at which point they would be obselete), pay for it, or be weaker than everyone else and not able to raid. It's a huge letdown, even the new class is behind a paywall. Trion is nothing but greedy bastards, and I'm glad their games are dying, they deserve it. Let them burn with their greed.

That moment when gear and progression is locked behind a paywall. I loved rift when it first launch, it was refreshing in the MMO market. I really have no idea what the hell they are thinking now. Hope it dies, let it die, please.

Another MMORPG dying out it seems. Yet none of them take the hint.

I don't care what they give us.
The way they treated raiders was absurd won't return even if they offered lifetime patron.
They can shove their goodies where the sun doesn't shine.
