Every new larger-scale mmorpg has used something like it and 'the engine' was never very good to begin with. Are you guys serious? They made a few bucks because WoW was easy compared to EQ and suddenly every game in town looked like it. It's basically shit on a screen. The graphics are terrible, the art direction is crap. The mash-buttons-to-win you could get in Space Invaders but that takes more skill. It's basically the reason why people don't get into MMOs. Can you honestly say that WoW is more immersive than EverQuest? It's mass-produced garbage for the undiscerning masses.

The last couple of posts were about the engine not the target audience. I mentioned in previous posts that WoW is good at the wide range easy to advance style it aims at. I mentioned also that I definitely found EQ more imersive. As far as the art goes I was never a big fan of WoW's cartoonish characters but they also did well for what they were shooting at.
I liked vanilla WoW, but not as much as EQ. Original EQ will probably forever be my best MMO gaming experience. However, this does not perclude me from saying that WoW is a very well made game.
