I want innovation. FFXI rocked (Hell I'm considering Resubbing right now), SWG rocked, EVE is still awesome and they didn't copy WoW to do it. No WoW clone has actually succeeded.
If I'm considering an MMO and its a rehash of WoW with one or 2 cool new features than theres no point in playing it when I can play WoW and KNOW the game will be there in 6 months.
Blizzard came up with a winning formula yes but someone else can come up with another.
I played SWG for almost 3 years and it did nothing similar to "rocking". FFXI was the same. EVE is even more of a terrible concept. No matter how much I play I can never be as good as someone who started before me? Um what? SWG was even more terrible, especially when it first game out.
Plenty of non WoW clones fail, and usually harder than WoW clones. APB? That was a huge success... Star Trek online? That still has like a whopping 15 subscribers?
The beta system for this game is retarded. Entering a beta key allows you to be entered into a selection process for the beta? WTF?
