What are some of the pros and cons you guys see with it? I ask because I am considering going there, however i don't want to go if everything thinks it is going in the toilet.

Is there any Raid content? Is the combat system easily boxable by running your own group?

Look forward to hearing from you guys.

Its going to take a few more months before most of us know anything about its potential long term. We have to get to 50, gear up etc.. I think Rift has one of the best Dev teams around atm. They listen to "legitimate" concerns the players voice, and take action right away. Rift has some growing pains ahead, with balance etc. But it will be a successful game for a long time.

That being said, I'm still unsure it will replace WoW from me long term, i need some more time and a few classes to max level. I know I enjoy it enough to stay long enough to level a few teams to 50. Most other MMOs that have come out since WoW have not kept me past lvl 20 or so. So that say a lot right there.
