A more refreshing experience than WoW.

Great game way better than WoW. Highly recommended. After 6 years of playing WoW I finally found an mmo that surpasses it in quality. I never thought that there would ever be an mmo that would be superior to WoW but now I see that that is no longer the case. If you like mmo gaming than this one is the right one for you. The rifts are just pure innovation and it's not just the same ol grinding as in WoW. The mechanics to rift make it very distinct from other mmos not just WoW. The graphics are beautiful way more, its simply more refreshing to lay than WoW. Its just pure fun very enjoyable.Rift are a fantastic distraction as well, and doing them offers great reward that lets you get better gear. I don't know what else to say. I am completely hooked on this game, and that hasn't happened with an MMO since UO back in the day
