Rifts are ok if they're done right and are actually relevant. Randomly catapulting the protagonist around time just for the sake of it isn't relevant. Rifts in Brotherhood were. Especially when you accessed 16's hideout at the end.

And I really hope they'll stick to having a proper modern protagonist reliving memories of a person instead of this "game within a game" meta bullshit Unity had.
