Yesterday, Trion Worlds shared with G4TV a rare glimpse into the end-game content of Rift: Planes of Telara. Adam Gershowitz, one of the producers working on the game, attempts to answer the quintessential “what do I do after cap?” question. Taking us through Stillmore (sp?), a level 50 zone, as well as into the depths of a 20-man raiding instance known as Greenscale’s Blight, Gershowitz expands on the new game mechanics Trion is bringing to the table with Rift.
We’ve embedded the gameplay video up there, so take a look! Here’s a qoutable from G4TV:
What’s really interesting about the open world mechanic, however, is that other people can join your raid to help you fight off the baddies. The more people who are helping, the harder the encounter becomes. The way the developers have combated griefing and ninjalooting is that only the people in the group that opened the Rift will receive proper loot, whereas the helpers will just receive some tokens and cash.
