I mean after awhile it becomes it's own game and you forget about the similarites, but you gotta admit it's ALOT like WoW. the interface is almost exactly the same. and im not saying its more popular im saying i want more people to play so it gets more popular. its an amazing f2p game and deserves more attention you play?
while the game has amazing aesthetic purposes, I didn't really like it, I generally don't like games that are "FREE" to play but have a cash shop in them I don't like the idea of others getting special privileges because they used real money , when it's marketed as a free to play game because as a user I would be obviously playing for the sole purpose it is free to play or I would pay for wow as a user. And while the game has been out for a few years now I played when it first came out, I didn't too much like their customer support, or their questing , the questing I found to be terrible, and apparently after reading /hearing things I wasn't the only one to complain about it. Ontop of that the small player population makes the game, harder to find buddies to quest or do dungeons, ect, . The game however does set a standard for F2P MMORPGS, and hopefully the Dev's will create and change and make the game better as time goes on, for me it wasn't my cup of tea.
Hopefully someone will play with you though ! ^_^
