You will find DAoC far more varied, loads of different cl***** with a lot
of
viable specs.
Certain aspects are not as accessable as WoW but the programmers are
taking
notes and things are appearing :) Stuff like displaying how much bonus you
have etc.
Quests, more complex and probably more irratating - but you don't have to
do
them (not a fan of quests which is probably why I didn't get on with WoW).
Battle grounds (RvR) - excellent.
Free levels and dungeon (instant) tasks for Xp make for steady
progression.
Player base is relatively mature - I think the idiot are all playing WoW
:)
Graphics more natural and less cartoony (sounds too, although personallly
I
liked WoW sampled sounds).
If you play on a populated server like Merlin or Lancelot there is a good
mix of players. Some people complain about getting groups but I never have
a
problem (although I play group friendly characters).
To conclude, if you like a challenge (plus pretty good RvR and about to
get
better), and if you don't mind complexity, then DAoC is your boy :)
On the other hand, if you like just to play a game to relax and not think
about game play then stick to WoW (although to be fair I have only played
for about a month before getting very bored - although I loved WC3).
