i get all that, but listen: you know how everyone talks about how easy WoW is and yada yada? i tried creating a couple of alts and seriously am no good at figuring out how any other classes work. maybe it's laziness on my part that i don't do the reading or get help or whatever to figure out how to play another class, but i have not been able to figure it out on my own. i am boss at my feral druid (and do not know how to heal, tank, or boomkin), and that is literally the extent of my WoW-ing skills. even worse is that it took me probably four years to get as good at my kitty druid as i am now. so even though everyone says "zomg rift is so easy to figure out, it's just like WoW, blah blah," unless it has a kitty with which i can rake and mangle, i am just not interested in figuring it out. /shrug
it's kind of like how i stopped playing console video games (such as final fantasy games) past the SNES... i know they're technically the same thing and just involve a few more buttons, but i think there's a point where i just like to stick with what i know and am good at.
as for the add-on thing, i actually don't play with any add-ons in WoW, so that doesn't make much difference to me.
anyway, i'm not ruling it out completely, and if all of my gamer friends bail on WoW for rift, i'm sure i'll head that way, too. but for now, i'm fine without it!
