Maybe you misunderstood my post, buuuut.. I said from what you've "seen". I even put quotations around it in my OP also. Then asked what comparisons others, including you, can draw up and then I proceeded to mention WoW comparisons from other people in the community. Maybe you're thinking I myself was making comparisons when I only asked what others thought? Hm? Maybe you're saying others shouldn't make comparisons now even with all the info shared from the developers even after they've mentioned influences from other games?

I don't know what was hard to understand about that, but I'm not Japanese so maybe you didn't care to pay attention?
