thing is that even if your game is a million times better than wow. . .you still got to win over 14 million players. . .out of which probably more than a half WoW is their first MMO and they dont really know much
for example PvP on Warhammer COMPLETELY PWNED wow's pvp. . .I havent played wow since a little after burning crusade got released so I dont know if it changed much. . .but still warhammer was far superior.
Aion completely pwnz wow in pvp and well I do agree pve isnt as fun as wow but hey what to do.
a lot of complains I heard about Aion and those other mmo's is that they arent spoon fed. Wow. . .go do an instance and get phat l00ts.
I did an instance like 10 times in Aion to see only 1 good thing drop out of the final boss. . .it was kinda pissing me off but . . .hey not everything is easy.
now go watch the trailer of Aion Vision. . .it looks too amazing!! tho I think that will never be released if they keep their population so low =/
oh! BTW if you want to compete with WoW you got to compete with this:

I think thats kind of the point. I log in to have a seamless fun experience, not to try for the 102th time at the battle barrens for a item i need to compete in the next raid that mainly does ganking than anything else.
Too many things in MMORPG's these days are time wasting time sinks that are more oriented at stalling you than anything else. Cause at the end of the day after all the killings and the quests there's nothing else there.

also wow doesnt (or didnt) have any penalizations for death. . .Aion takes off experience. . .
I know in EQ you could loot someones corpse? that would be mean!

Runescape moments here ::). I remember i was doing this quest to get the most powerful sword in the entire game, went to restock on fire runes for magical attack cause fighting that dragon head on would just be plain suicidal.
The fire temple however was within the freaking wilderness, if you die there all your items are dropped.
Sure as hell did not want to lose 100k worth of armour i quadruple check to make sure there were no passerbys.
After finishing the quest i was returning back to the shack so i could teleport the hell out of there, i run into someone, come and see button mashing race towards the shack, i was something around 42 HP before i reached the safe point.

Everquest was the king of things like that. Boss runs hours long...
