I don't know why people keep comparing WoW to EQ2. EQ2 is obviously going to be rushed, and probably will be buggy and unfinished in a lot of areas. Most people here know that and would probably not think about spending on EQ2 in the first place.
I think the actual question is rather is WoW worth spending $200 or so a year? Right now, to me, and probably few others, such as Bolty, the answer is no. And there are alternatives, including other games and even Guild Wars with no monthly fee.
We will see how balanced and finished open beta patch will be, and make decision then. But right now there is simply soooo much unfinished stuff it makes me sad.
