    No, no, and no again. Rift's rifts are freakin BORING, and ANNOYING. Sure it's cool and makes it feel more "alive" the first few hundred times you're forced to do a rift cause they're attacking the place you need to turn in a quest....but when you login and want to do something other than rifts, it's really frustrating and irritating.

    Just, as a little example, Rift was so mind-blowing that I didn't even make it through the whole free month after buying the digital collector's edition....please don't take ques from this game, unless your goal is to completely revamp what they've done.
    Note that i said "adopt a similar strategy". I too didn't make it past the first week in RIFT, but it is a good idea for keeping the open world alive. Systems similar to this are what i'm referring to, not a copy & paste.

    Campaign, Besieged & Dominion Ops helped, but they are confined to their respective locations. I'm referring to a system that would make the world more alive not just a set location (be it battles or environmental changes).

    Campaign was a national event that affected quite a bit, including eventual siege of the big daddy Shadow Lord himself, hence campaign. ;p
