I have it/like it. It's still pretty new, so the there's still a lot of room for improvement in terms of performance and content, but I like what I've seen thus far. It has significantly more gameplay depth than WoW, and that could be a good thing or a bad thing depending on your tastes.

It also looks beautiful, but as a result can be a bit of a system hog. Even my new PC stutters some in crowded towns, but it's tolerable and will likely be improved in future patches. In the wilderness, there are few performance problems- the only gripe would be "seams", when you cross from one chunk of wilderness into another there can be a brief pause while it loads. Again, I'd expect that to be improved later as well....
