    The game still suffers from major performance issues and TRION is not able - or willing - to do anything about it. The expansion feels empty and soulless. The new continents are indeed very large but they are poorly designed and boring. If I could at least say it's "more of the same" but no, it's not. It's inferior to the original game. Skip this one.

    The game itself is only decent, which is why it received a rating of 2 instead of 1. What destroys this game is the supporting cast. Trion GM's and customer service have proven abysmal over the life of the game, and have only spiraled down into some of the worst experiences since the company layoffs. With the move to go f2p, I would hesitate to recommend this game to anyone based upon someThe game itself is only decent, which is why it received a rating of 2 instead of 1.

    Storm Legion provides more life and depth to the world of RIFT, which it needed badly. Bringing more souls, quests, dungeons and lands can only help RIFT possibly become the 'other' MMO option when finding an alternative to World of Warcraft.

    While technically a great expansion, the core game simply can't compete with its recent peers. [Jan 2013, p.74]

    Storm Legion is arguably the best expansion to come out in 2012 for any MMO. If you have not already played Rift now is a great time to give it a try. With the introduction of Dimensions Trion has set Rift up to have a lot of interesting and unique player created content to supplement Trion's internal development cycle.
