I loved EQ, I loved a lot more of the actual racing for mobs, while in WoW everything is instanced. WoW had the advantage of coming after, and being able to see the mistakes and fixing any complaint one might have with EQ. I have a 60 char in WoW now, and play that yet I do not have that same desire and yearning to play as much as I did in EQ. Could be because i was in a power raiding guild, but I think I realized in WoW the 60+ game is only really about raiding.

In EQ, there was at least some room made with their AA point system to expand your charachter... Their problem was that there was so many bugs in the system, that WoW had it right you had to build it all a new.. So I will say WoW wins since they have the better system, the instances (which removes the competition as much, except to say who did what first... and I think most people prefer not to involve in a race for a spawn).

But I guess fo rmyself WoW is to hang out more with friends, as a part time thing.. EQ was an addiction that I miss at times.
