WoW has been a major interest for me ever since I heard about it, and I have been following it closely hoping to get into the
beta. Although, something that bothers me about WoW, a rumor that I seriously hope is not true,: how there will be an evil and good side (orcs, tuaren vs. humans, dwarves, night elves)and the sides won't be able to group with the other. This might be good on select pvp servers,kinda like in EQ; but I dont like the idea of not being able to pick a tauren and group with my friend who wants to play as a night elf. Other than that the game looks superb and I will continue to follow it.
I played EQ for a little over 3 years just about every day. I left saying that I would never play a game made by VI/ SOE ever again, just recently I saw some EQ2 videos from E3 and they looked really awesome; they deffinatly made me second guess myself about never playing a game from VI/ SOE ever again. When I first started playing EQ it was the "wow" feeling I got seeing some of the things in it for the first time that made it so great. This feeling deffinatly went away for me by the time the velious expansion came out and the game started going downhill for me then. When I saw the EQ2 video it made me feel the same way again.
If I had to make a choice about which to play it would probably have to be WoW, but I plan to try EQ2 also.
