I must say...

I've gotta admit, I was absolutely PUMPED for Rift (and still am :D) but GW2 really caught my eye as something I will almost certainly enjoy for a long time.
I was genuinely worried for a second that i wouldn't be able to spend any non-beta game time with the awesome people here at Gaiscioch (Rift will be a subscription game [or so I've heard] and I'm a little too poor to afford that) but the payment method for GW2 is what I like most. Just a one-time purchase, no subscription!
So even though I won't be able to play any Rift once it releases (unless the subscription is really cheap) I'm quite excitedly looking forward to playing lotsa GW2 with the 'Cioch whenever it releases.

I learned something about myself just now...I tend to use a lot of parentheticals. :D

If you get RIFT before March 15, you'll be able to pay at Founder's Pricing. But I don't know how much. RIFT, it's awesome and I'm excited about it, but it's only a placeholder game until GW2 is released. Though I'm not sure if I'll drop RIFT entirely when GW2 comes out. I guess we'll see.

Yeah, even though it's pretty close to release it's just too soon to be making any big decisions about what game to go with. Still, GW2 has got me pretty pumped... Yup, just gotta wait this one out, make a final decision once more info is released about Rift.
