I don't understand how you can knock FFXIV graphics. If anything, that's one of the few things they got right. When I walk around in FFXIV, I feel like i'm actually a part of the world. I feel like progress I make in FFXIV means something. RIFT on the other hand, is a game I play for 30 min a day to get AWAY from what feels like the real world "FFXIV".

That so makes me sound like a no lifer, and I promise I'm not... kinda.. Only level 37, but you get my point! I play rift, and I'm like.. ok cool, i'm a healer, and I won a cool battle, time to go do something that matters "jumps on FFXIV"
