I just can't do it. I played Rift a little while after I got off MFC last night and turned it off within 30 mins. Won't be purchasing it or playing beyond the 7 day trial. I just need a break from fantasy MMOs in general. Rift really is too much of the same thing, I can't even push myself to level higher to find the more exciting aspects of the game.
Kinda random, but have you considered trying Aion? It's a bit more serious than Rift/WoW-style MMOs. Very much an eyecandy game as far as graphics and character customization goes. 2.5 is being released tomorrow on the NA servers, and it's supposed to add more dungeons and a prettier graphics engine. Also, their updates since September have made it less grind-y, which is usually the complaint people have about it.
