Get the Rift expansion for free!

Rift changed their expansion's name to "Prophecy of Ahnket" (due to some legal issues with a charity) and used this moment to start a little promotion: Everybody who logs in from now until May 14 gets the newest expansion for free! After that, you will have to pay for the expansion again, but it will …

Rift Dimensions: Hey look! Another dimension project!

I didn't really continue with my tree house project, but I decided to start yet another one. The thing is that I've been playing my Primalist more recently. She's still tiny (level 22), but she wants a place to call home. While walking through my storage dimension that's filled with buildings only, I took a …

Back in Gloamwood

So here I was, ready to rant about how old zones in MMORPGs somehow always give me nostalgic feelings and how I almost always prefer some old zone over newer expansion ones when I felt like I had a deja-vu. A quick google search confirmed my suspicion: I already ranted about this! Even worse, I …

Late to the (PvP) party?

Trion hosted a PvP-focused Rift livestream on Friday* and I realized that I only played a handful of PvP games in Rift and that was years ago already. Thankfully, there is no open world PvP (there is a PvP server but I don't play on that one). On the contrary, both factions can play together …

Rift: How to get your Rask pet

Rift and Atlas Reactor started a new cross-promotion where you can get a Rask companion pet in Rift by playing Atlas Reactor. If you've never played Atlas Reactor, it's very very easy: Play 5 games in Atlas Reactor. If you don't like PvP, you can play against PvE enemies by clicking on "vs bots" and …

Rift Dimensions: Tree House in Moonshade Pools

For months, I've been dreaming about making a tree house for my elf (Kelari, actually) rogue in Rift. I had chosen the Stone Grove already, but something didn't "click". It has a huge big tree in the middle and is just asking for a tree house to be built. Yet, nothing happened. I started by …

Today’s Recipe: (Hessian) Green Sauce

Regular readers may know that I am from Germany and to be even more precise, I am from Hessen (best state in Germany, of course - well, at least geographically, since we're in the middle and can reach all the other parts of Germany relatively easily). We have a few traditional dishes here (and apple …

Folk Tale: Where is it now? (March 2017)

Update (June 27, 2017): The developer seems to have gone MIA. The last post in the game's Steam Communiy Hub was posted on April 30, 2017. Before that, there were several posts each week. No further patches have happened, no replies on Twitter etc. either. Please consider this if you're interested in the game!   …

Six years… wow

Today marks our 6th anniversary of the blog. We have posted a total of 593 published posts (594 as soon as I hit "publish" on this one) which means that we have about 100 posts per years which translates to one post every three to four days. This is not bad! I often wish I …
