I love the uniqueness. There are 22 character classes, and although the core 'classes' are the same (tank, damage dealer, healer, buffer, debuffer), there are variations on each: pet class, melee/magic/missle for each. So there is a lot of differentiation. You could be missle damage dealer or magic DD, or melee DD. Same with debuffer, etc.
Not only that, they are creative as well. The Juggernaut wields a two ended bladed weapon, the Hive Keeper throws wasps, the Zealot wields double handed 'claws', etc. There are lots of classes that are unlike anything in any other game I've seen.
The best news is that with the xpansion pack just released, there is more to do than I CAN do. Finally!
If you've played before and were frustrated, I'd encourage you to come back. Lots has changed.

I played AC2 for about a year. Loved it despite its flaws (and there were, as you said, numerous). I'll consider coming back when
a. The total server population during peak hours surpass 200 people.
b. The chat system is working
Best MMO in my opinion? WoW hands down. Whatever comes in second isn't even close.
