1) WoW is a Blizzard game, and thus is built on many fundamental systems they've seem to have gotten down quite well due to previous release testing (Diablo 2) So thus, it will always feature Phat Lewt, and people will most likely searching for the best gear (which is usually unique) so everyone in the end has the same thing.
2) WoW is going to attract a lot of D2 players, and if you are or have been an avid D2 player, we all know what the people are like on B.Net. Expect little to no RPing unless they provide a designated server for it like Everquest at the moment does.
3) I hate Blizzard's cliche view of warriors and magicians, even though each class will have more skills then what is found in D2, they are like that of D2, and soon there will be one and only one viable build.
I think you can expect a lot from Everquest 2 however since in truth, they have more experience in the MMORPG world, Blizzard doesn't. The content of Everquest 1 is really actually quite amazing, so they have something to work with to expand on and mold it to ideally what they wanted.
**EDIT** wow I just realized hes asking about EVE and Anarchy Online, my bad =) - well then i'm replying to the post above ^_^

Are you kidding, you're talking against "phat lewt" and recomending Everquest? Have you ever played it?
Did you also even try World of Warcraft? Apparently not, because all your info about it is wrong.
The skills in WoW have absolutely
nothing in common with diablo 2, they are
based on warcraft. Is there polymorph in D2? No. Are there Shamans, clerics, hunters? No. In d2 can you play as a night elf hunter and ride a sabretooth tiger? No. Can you tame animals? No...
The classes are nothing like those of D2. The system isn't even the same. Of all of the mmorpgs I played, WoW is the only one that made warriors interesting toplay. They don't just stand in front of the ennemy and do regular attack, they have tons of skills. I won't even talk about the other classes. There's so much you can do with the classes of this game, it make every other mmorpgs look dumb.
You've obviouslty never played WoW or Everquest 2, and probably not Everquest 1 either. You're apparently just biased against Blizzard or Diablo. Why don't just say you don't like them, instead of giving false info and trying to con people into missing a game
they might like?
By the way, mmorpg stand for Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game.
