There's a huge amount of gear (also, vanity costuming; you can look like you want in a wardrobe feature while wearing what's practical). Most of the cool gear look is at the end game level. Lots of vanity mounts, too. The exploration in Rift is great, only games I've played with so much turf to explore are Rift, WoW, GW2 anmd GW1 and Everquest. If you like the way WoW does things, but are tired of it (that's exactly where I got to with WoW) then Rift is a very nice change of pace. The stuff it does differently...the rift events, invasions, instant adventures and such are just extra icing on the cake.Doctor Futurityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02586371999646337047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4566357373248344031.post-27784938978028110872012-11-14T21:05:15.830-07:002012-11-14T21:05:15.830-07:00Interesting...

Every time I go back it's for shorter and shorter periods before I realize why I left the last time. <br />... and just today I started wondering about Rift.<br />Your mention that it's like 'Burning Crusade' appeals to me... that's still some of my favorite content ever for WOW. <br />Also, with City Of Heroes shutting down this month I'd like to find a new MMO that I can casually drop into and play. <br />How focused is Rifts on gear? WOW has that addictive aspect of always chasing after gear... whereas COH pretty much avoided that except for vanity stuff.<br />How is it for exploration? Always my favorite part of any game...Timmy Crabcakeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14737954661234574830noreply@blogger.com
