I actually finished writting a review yesterday about GW. It's a good, solid game that has many unique features and quite a few drawbacks too. In a few words. Great atmospheric graphics, NO MONTHLY FEES, no camping of mobs required, no individual servers, Dual-class characters, no tiresome crafting system, the existance of henchmen (no more being LFG for a couple of hours before finding a not-so-good-after-all group), no experience or gear integrity loss after a death, direct skill points assignment on level up, GREAT map system, VERY helpful quest system. On the other hand it only allows you to have up to 8 skills maximum at hand, practically no-existent character customization, only one playable race and 6 classes, no practical mob con-system, no stats visible.
It's a good game to own, and get your PvP rocks off when you take a break from EQ2, since there is no monthly fee. But I would not recommend abandoning EQ2 for it...
Hope I helped
