Attention! If you currently have unused accounts in the MMORPGs RIFT, ArcheAge and Trove, Trion Worlds will soon take away the names of your heroes.
Names in MMORPGs are a tricky thing. Every player identifies with their character, but perhaps even more with their name.
The hero’s name is often not only used in one MMO but in several. Certain names are also highly sought after, which is why many developers offer to let players reserve names before the game is released.
Names will be released
If an account is not played for a long time, the name becomes inactive. This especially frustrates newcomers who then have trouble choosing an appropriate name. Trion Worlds has now announced that the names of long-unused accounts for the online games RIFT, ArcheAge, and Trove will be released. This means that others can then take these names, and if you log in again at some point, you will find that your hero no longer has the name you gave him.
Protect your name!
To prevent this, you should log into the games RIFT, ArcheAge, and Trove by January 31 at the latest, depending on where you have accounts. This ensures that your heroes keep their names. All accounts that have not been active since January 31, 2017, are affected.
If you log in again only after January 31, 2018, you will have the opportunity to choose a new name.
