I have a few things I've been interested in to ask, and I'd go myself but schoolwork and all...
My main interest is how large the world is going to be, mainly for exploration and such. Will it be more of a sandbox or more of a themepark? Will there be large open areas to simply walk through. Arid deserts, Hinterlands, Tundra, etc.
Classes is also interesting, and I'm wondering when they will release a definite statement of the number of classes they will have in each calling. So far I'm guessing 32 in all, with 8 in each calling.
Races! They are releasing the Guardian race at Gamescon, but they might let something slip about the Defiant race as well. So far we've been told it'll be the more spritial of the Defiant, making pacts with demigods and gods. I'm thinking a sort of serpintine race, or perhaps even dark elf, but that's all mainly speculation.
Another thing that is interesting is the infrastructure of their online servers. With the new technology coming out daily, continental borders might soon be removed, allowing different languages and countries to be on one server. Would be quite interesting.
I've always enjoyed anything to do with bodies of water, and wonder how it will be set up in Rift. Will we be able to swim underwater? Sail ships? Large instances deep under the depths? Tsunamis hitting you when a water rift opens, that kind of stuff.
I'll add a few more if I think of something, but for now, sleep.
