MMORPGs are in the "hard drugs" category, and for that reason alone, I'm staying well clear of that genre. ;)
But if I ever decided to commit a social suicide and start playing such a game, it would not be WoW.
Why ?
It's a Blizzard game.
Blizzard's appalling record regarding PR, anti-cheat policy enacting, game testing, and yes, even game design (D2 is a brilliant concept, with a first-class interface, but with so many imbalances, useless and broken features), as far as Diablo 2 is concerned, has made me boycott any future Blizzard product.
No way I can trust that company with my bucks any more.
