Fully understanding that I am the minority opinion here, but I'm totally okay with ripped off WoW models.

Yes, they were cartoony and at times awkward, but I began to appreciate them over time. That said, I have absolutely zero confidence that Sony can make a graphics engine that performs as well on such a wide array of systems like Blizzard did (part of the reasoning behind the models in the first place).

Edit: I should probably also mention that at this point in my life I have no interest in creating a gaming system to handle the "modern" graphics engines, hence my being okay with a WoW graphics clone. I liked the WoW engine because it would run very well on a standard macbook pro (my usual machine). EQ1 also falls into that category, though for obvious other reasons.
