1.) I am WoW'd out, the big plus of that game was interface and I loved the way you controlled your avatar. I hated the graphics, not the quality but just how out of proportion things were.(no one is wearing armor or using weapons that out of scale and I wasn't a big fan of the lore. (don't like guns and robots in my fantasy games)

2.) Already hit LOTRO, it was fun for a bit, but I am done with it.

So, with that said what I'd like is a fantasy mmo, with a smooth interface, realistic graphics, a nice selection of classes and races, reasonably challenging pve and faction based pvp and lore I find interesting. Alganon looks promising, but going to wait for their first expansion before I play. I considered FE, but the fps style combat won't work for me, terrible at fps games, and that was the only non fantasy mmo I was considering.  Anyways, I thank you in advance for your suggestions.

Aion, as Coman said, or Age of Conan.

2. Xfire numbers are perfectly viable for identifying trends in an MMOG's subscriber numbers, keeping in mind any current or recent "use Xfire!" campaigns.

I shy away from Asian mmos; fear of super grindiness. I know all mmos have a grind, but I have heard that Asian games tend to be beyond excessive in this regard.

Try the games for yourself before you go on believing other people. and what they say.  Your taste differs greatly when compared to other people.  Just because a few people have told you that something is "grindy" might not feel that way to you.

In any case, some suggestions for you would be Age of Conan, Aion, and if you're willing to step back a generation Dark Age of Camelot... though I don't think you'll find it all that appealing.  My only advice is to go out and try things for yourself.  I think quite a few of the games come with free trials so at least give those a shot.

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I porn surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of 'hot xxx galore'. While I clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", I muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, "404."

I am not going to go into the "why you should" speech,just download this trail and make your own mind up. You will hear all kinds of comments about this game in these forums,just make your own mind up.

It cost nothing to uninstall or install...
