You're entitled to your opinion, but personally I find rift terribly imbalanced and boring - they put zero thought into the soul/class system and in return delivered the most imbalanced class system ever released and classes in that game lack uniqueness just as much as XIV does. In addition, their auction house is worse than the current state of the market wards, imo. Mounts are nice, pvp is not (see class imbalance), and their raids are pointless when leveling 1-49 is a chore for anyone use to their generic quest system that was clearly ripped straight out of WoW. Rift is a generic piece of crap and I highly doubt people will abandon their leveled/geared characters elsewhere for it.

They did; however, do an amazing job launching the game.
