My point was (is) that if you want to develop a WoW clone (<-- clone; important that) and have it compete effectively with WoW then your clone has to be at least as good as WoW is now, not as good as WoW was at launch. The sarcasm was directed at those who keep claiming competition against WoW but don't come anywhere near WoWs level of completeness. To many WoW clones release (Aion comes to mind) with barely the level of completeness WoW had at launch and people wonder why they don't do all that well. Well, kinda… not really.

Only WoW addicts and Blizzard fanboys look for the WoW killer, the vast majority of everyone else actually play other MMOs that are more interesting than WoW.

That idea is to create a world which would allow people to step into a virtual world where they could live a herioc and escape from everyday life. The thing that most super nerds that play these MMO's don't understand is that the game needs to be user friendly for even the complete MMORPG noob. WoW allows you to escape from your everyday life and face dificult challenges and gain a feeling of satisfaction from that. That is what they are REALLY selling to you. A chance to live a life you can't live or don't and feel important or heroic. Once designers not only figure this out and are better then decent at coding a new MMORPG then you might have a potential competitor. For now none of the MMO's i have played give me the rush and excitement that WoW has given me. WoW has a simple idea.

I think they are just looking for market share. What they hope is that WoW has made the MMO pie is so large that it can support hundreds of MMO companies. What they don't understand is that nobody wants their game. I could hope that Tetris has expanded the falling brick game market so much that now the market can support any number of falling brick games, but guess what. Nobody wants another falling brick game, either. Though Puyopuyo is damn fun :) There's room for a FEW, but not an infinite number. MMO developers would be better off doing some other kind of game.
