Change of Scenery

Well, after a long career at the high tier of end-game in raiding I feel like WoW may finally be dying off. a lot of long time friends who Ive raided with for years have been logging less and less time per day. I have even found myself going from 10+ hours a day to logging in for a few minutes at a time unless Im raiding. I think Cata has a lot to do with it, theres just not much to do.

On that note I recently picked up Minecraft to kill some time and holy f*** is this game amazing. You start out punching trees.....16 hours later you add the last block to a giant wall. Its insane how easy it is to get lost in this game.  There are some creations that are simply amazing, the most impressive thing Ive done is build my house (to scale).



On a whim a few nights ago I downloaded the Rift beta and fell in love. I played through to level 15 as a paladin/warlord tank and could not get enough. Once the beta ended I pre-ordered my collector's edition and am patiently awaiting the servers to go live. Im pretty excited to be back at the forefront of a new game, hopefully it is successful.

    All MMORPGs and MUDs have a limited lifespan. The players always want new ways to gain power, but new players always need extra boosts just to compete. Giving boosts to new players angers the old players who had to work hard to get that power, etc.

    Minecraft is probably my all time favorite game. If Rift is really as good as you say, I might give it a try :)
