names are

Apothercary & Myrrdin

if you are, or are interested in looking into it - be sure to give us a shout!

the game website is www.riftgame.com - for more info!!

cheers,

Jamie

Way too busy achieving stuff in WoW - I think Blizz can keep me busy for at least another year :).

I wonder what their new project codenamed Titan will be. Maybe Blizzard will design a game set in medieval mythology, with 3 realms fighting for survival and dominance.

WoW is keeping me entertained for a few hours a week now.

I'm also keeping an eye on SW:TOR and hoping Bioware manage to pull off something special despite the involvement of EA.
It's looking promising so far, but then again so was WAR :P

For those who are planning to play SW:TOR, you can already create your guild on the official site and have your members join it.
When the game launches and you first log in, the guild will automatically be created in-game for you.

Me and my other half are playing this on Quicksilver, managed to make level 30 so not likely to transfer given that our play time is so limited but never say never :)

It certainly has potential, but not sure about its longevity at the moment will see what the later warfronts bring. I do finally have a proper anti-caster tank though which is nice :)

im hooked on this its the best MMO iv seen since Daoc . the rest for me have all been steaming piles of shit
there is so much to do on this is crazy and there is alot yet to be implimented
the guild me and frazer are in is great the wolverines are just like old HG
when you get bored of questing or need a break from it you can go pvp in the warfronts more pvp end game contenet yet to be implimented . you can get pvp gear . also pvp faction gear
or you can go rifting .get planular gear rewards
if you fancy another change craft you can have 3 that all compliment each other
raid dungeons 1 group instance dungeons . epic kit story line
and the pvp isnt shit either its brutal and fun .. fing loves gettin turned into a squirrel hehe .P
and there are the achievments also
the game isnt perfect yet but its very new and this lot actually take note of what the community says . and i dont mean all the troll tits that post irelavant moaning shit .

i have high hopes for this game it really does have me hooked not felt like that since Daoc .

if anyone has not got this game yet and does buy it start a toon on steampike and contact any wolverines member all HG are welcome and any other old alliance member

javai see if you can transfer your toons no idea about that tbh ill look also see if they allow it

Riftblade/reaver here too. Makes a nice change to see a target that needs splatting and actually have the fire power to splat it :)

:( sorry, I keep eating, and that means there's more of me.

May lay off the cabbage for a few weeks.

hawk - only low level still so this is just a conjecture, but basically lots of AOE damage + justicar tankage.
