There's also Wildstar. It's similar to WoW but with more tactical combat. There's a decent amount of hype for it.

If you asked most MMO fans to describe what they really want in the next, best MMO, most will describe Ultima Online, but made with modern tech.
YES!!!! The ORIGINAL, gritty, you could get killed anywhere UO.

Yeah ESO is really the only thing I've seen people looking forward too. Aside from maybe Everquest Next, which won't be out for at least a year.

I actually never pvp'd much in UO. I was more talking about crafting, community, housing, ship building, player stores, customizability, etc.

UO was all about the pvp. No pvp game has been as successful as everquest, let alone wow. Your statement doesn't add up. I do definitely see a vocal minority in every mmo thread that wants pvp in everything however.

Still on TC as well.
I think TC is full? I was headhunting that server a few months ago - it never went down from "full" no matter what time of day I tried.
