Wow was not nearly as good as EQ2, but you didn't have to have a new PC with a top of the line 3D card and a ton of RAM to play it like you did EQ2.

EQ2 was full of bugs and couldn't develop fast enough to keep up with bliz. Also WoW's game engine scales very well with graphic settings. Very low can run on any PC but run everything on max and you will see a very beautiful game. Sony also rushed EQ2 but bliz delayed WoW a few times to polish every aspect of the game.
