Smedley's design style is well known to those who played EQ during the handover from Verant to SOE and beyond. No thanks (I'll be very happy to be wrong about this where EQN is concerned, but I doubt I am).
ESO has three separate levels of instancing. No thanks.
Wildstar is (if possible) even more cartoony than WoW, and triter. Again, no thanks (yes, it matters a lot).
There's a huge hole in the market right now. I'm amazed noone has the nous to step up and fill it.
