Ryzom looks fairly interesting, as does Zenrai.  WoWarcraft... I'm
biased against Blizzard.  They make quality games, to be sure, but
ever since Starcraft I've found the wait for them not at all worth it.
 But that's just me.

Thanks for the info on all of them.

These days difference location doesn't mean quite so much.  ^_^

RO, heh.  STILL haven't recovered from what two weeks of RO Alpha did
to my study habits.  Since then I've seen too much of the shitty side
of RO and have little interest in it.

I'm not familiar with the other ones at all.  Hrm.
