It's not really a mmorpg as such, I played in the weekend beta's its more like an online PVP rpg, it suits those that played WoW and are asking wtf is Blizz doing with their PvP system. Those that are just into slaying dragons can do that too, but it's a lot more focused on PvP and team strategies. There's no griefing as when you make a party with some friends you get ported to your own instance, like WoW's raid's, so there's no walking you can just -port- anywhere around the map, so if your friend is getting bashed you can port right to them and help. If you just want to pummel people there's battlegrounds (designated places). Of course people will compare WoW to GW but they aren't really the same thing, both have their good points. I'll be playing both since GW doesn't have a monthly fee anyway. oh its made by those former Blizz people that worked on several games and made bnet so thats not a bad thing =D
