A few days ago, Trion World release some for screenshots and videos for Rifts: Planes of Telera, this time focuse on the plane of Water.

Water rifts can open anywhere and at any time in the embattled world of Telara, spilling salt water and slithering creatures into the driest desert of most thriving jungle, creating reeking pools of brine where the depraved denizens from the nightmare plane lie in wait for passing adventures.

This game is starting to look really interesting. I think that the idea of having the Rifts forming the world to add some unexpected elements to the leveling experience. It also sound like the class system is going to be a little different than the typical MMO, but I’ll let Candace get into that a little bit more in the future.

What I’m interested in is seeing whether or not the Rifts have the social impact that Trion Worlds is expecting. According to their website, the Rifts will “motivate players to organize, fight together” to defeat them. Will this become a great experience, or will it go the way of Warhammer Online’s Public Quests, with the low level area quests become solo experiences?

Enjoy the movie below, giving you another taste of a Water Rift.
