Well, what makes it different from WoW and Guild Wars?
Possibly the most obvious difference is the questing; instead of it being an obvious 'fetch 10 x and kill 20 y', it's done in standard Bioware fashion, if you've ever played Mass Effect, Dragon age or KOTOR then you can expect these games conversation mechanics in an MMO environent. The storyline arcs are extremely well done and are genuinely enjoyable and interesting.
So far I've not done any grinding of any sort and I'm level 30 out of the max of 50.
The PvP is also unique, as it is completely objective based, and, for me, it's fun whether or not you win or lose, I think most of us are planning on focusing on PvP for end-game, as opposed to the Raid mechanics (which aren't refined at the moment, they'll probably improve in later development, though).
The graphics are good, especially compared to the other MMOs on the market at the moment.
If you do choose to get it, we play on the Empire's side on Legions of Lettow server, it's a busy server, but queues only occur during the most congested times.
Definitely worth a buy, I've only had it a week and I've got more than 2 days play time, and I barely got that on WoW after 6 months of playing.
