    Default Rift Lite F2P (crumble like a cookie)



    First 20 levels of Rift is now F2P.

    Trion Worlds has just announced that its fantasy MMO RIFT, which released to wide acclaim just 11 months ago, will today launch an introductory version of the game known as RIFT Lite. Similar to Warhammer Online's Endless Trial and World of Warcraft's Starter Edition, RIFT Lite will allow "anyone with a Trion account to experience the game's first 20 levels at no cost and with no playtime restrictions." Players will be able to access the capital cities as well as Terminus, Mathosia, Freemarch, and Silverwood, all the way up to level 20 and on any server, for the low, low cost of zero dollars.

    In the press release, RIFT Executive Producer Scott Hartsman, who told fans last November that Trion had "absolutely no plans whatsoever" to turn RIFT F2P, stated that his company believes "a Lite edition with no time limit is the best way for players to see what an amazing experience RIFT continues to be."

    Diet RIFT launches today in conjunction with the latest patch, Carnival of the Ascended, which brings player weddings, dungeon overhauls, and PvP tweaks to Telara.

    Long story short, just copy Blizzard and make the first 20 levels free like they did with WoW!

    Maybe, but you gotta understand that no one cares about Warhammer.

    I'm all for it. RIFT has been one of the best MMOs I've played in a very long time, and they'll keep getting my money if they roll out the updates at the rate at which they do. If only they would tweak performance on AMD GPUs... haha.
