WoW was basically EQ2 at launch too, just with a much better optimized engine and completely different art style. So yeah I think the "spiritual" successor to EQ is obviously EQ2 before it's WoW, unless "spiritual" requires that we leave out actual successors, which it probably does I guess nevermind.
