People need to stop comparing games to WoW, sorry but no one will reach WoW's numbers for a Long time, sad to say but not even blizz new mmo.
I played games like WOW and the only thing I don't like about it is how they shove "you must be in a group to do this part" thing. I don't play well in groups. I like the idea of seeing others playing the same game but I prefer to play alone. I heard that GW2 will have something close to a single player mode or something to that effect.
Simple answer
Wow is in a league of its own, and therefore is winning, all the time, as it has no competitors.
Looking at Guild Wars 2, however, I think it has the potential to be a great success in it's own right, and therefore can quite easily 'win' too.
Result, 2 wins, as they're not really in competition.

It involves killing things and you do it more than once, that seemed to be enough for you to flag WoW as a endless grindfest.Hectix777 said:
and yes I did (sadly) waste 5 valuable minutes on that Video, which seemed to consist of little more than a few GW2 people saying how it'll be oh-so awesome.
Some MMO will beat WoW when Blizzard decides to quit milking the game for all it's worth then most likely it will be another blizzad game
I think Cata re-energized the WoW player base and now WoW truly has something for everyone:
* If you like PvE RPG there are some really good quest lines.
* If you like cooperative play there are the Random Dungeons.
* If you like short PvP there are the Battlegrounds and Arena.
* If you like to spend hours and hours doing the same thing over and over with a group of other people there is Raiding.
* If you like to spend hours and hours doing the same thing over and over solo there is Grinding.
* If you like community you can join a guild, if you like playing solo you don't have to.
Crafting still kinda sucks in WoW, but they added professions.
And most people know at least one other person who plays.
I don't think GuildWars 2 will bypass it.

Because, some time WoW will fall leaving Rift TOR and GW2 in an era of time similar to the Warring States period in China that will ultimately result in one faction becoming dominant over the others and be recognized as the dominant faction or ruling faction.MellowFellow said:

Read at Yahtzee Speed: In reality I do hope that the 3 can live in harmony, but Blizzard LITERALLY designed WoW to be the equivalent of gaming crack. Maybe if all 3 were free-to-play they could ive as one, but Blizzard is on the same level as Activision, i.e. a company, i.e. a soulless culmination of greedy demons from hell looking to profit.
I don't play WOW to raid day and nite and kill x mob x amount of times, i play for the people, ive met some amazing friends over the 6 years ive played, friends ive met up with, friends i might possibly live with while going to uni. Its only partly about the game, i can't speak for guild wars but not matter if i have more fun playing any other game, WOW will always be the best game ive ever played, the best people ive ever played with. Theres very few other games i can log onto and chat to a husband and wife and their son or six people from Denmark who are all in a rock band and everyone be equals.
I feel that wow is still going to be dominating, but the guild wars is still going to take a good chunk out of it's pie.
Ok just to say Guild Wars 2 is not making itself out to be a woW killer or clone. Guild Wars always has and strives to be on the opposite spectrum of the MMO genre as WoW. Also if anyone does want to discuss GW1 or 2 we do have a group. Just saying...
