Generic gameplay, quests and graphics.
I didn't find anything bad, but I didn't find anything that good. Everything felt normal. It's like a cup of water. Tastes the same every damn time.
Give it a try if you're really bored or if it's your first MMO. But if you're bored of WoW, Aion, GW, L2 or whatever and you're looking for a new MMO, you'll find one in Rift, but it won't be as "new" as you'd expect. It's the same MMO formula that has been used for almost 10 years now.
I'm not saying you won't have fun and certainly there are some improvements needed regarding gameplay. But "been there, done that".
The Market is filled with MMO's atm, most of them free and 2 or 3 really good and worth paying for (WoW being one of them). Why would someone leave World of Warcraft or Aion to play a totally similar game from the start all over again?
Yeah, thought so.
Anyways, it's still BETA, but the game is coming out in a month, so don't expect major improvements to the gameplay.
Skill system shows some promise, but doesn't add up to a total fresh feeling that a new game should do (unless, as I said before, you're a MMO virgin).
