If you are seeking a new WoW you can go try out rift ...

and in short, the good about FFXIV and 11 is the community ... I have a theory that says most of FFXIV and FF11 players are mostly playing because they are originally FF fans ... and FF fans in general are NICE, loving and caring people. And since FF11 and XIV are based on people and doing things in party is always a better option then you can socialize a lot ... with the well created music and pleasant graphics ... thats where I like to spend time
