While I enjoyed WoW for a long time it started to lose its luster over a year ago for me. Have not tried AoC so no comment there.
Many critics of AoC come from the same place as you. As a player that actually played both games I can say that both that have their ups and downs, but if you want to compare, only kids will prefer WoW.
Take for example the WotLK expansion heck take BC as well, everyone rushed to get to max level, you had guilds taking everything down in Naxx with in weeks. What the hell is that about, how can you enjoy the game if you rush through it?
Rushing to endgame, and then complaing about it, is what some players think make them seem like pros. Enjoying a game is more subjective. The atmosphere and feel of AoC is above what you will find in most mmos, depending on your preferences ofcourse. if u want futuristic stuff, go somewhere else, if u want bloody midevial hacking, go AoC.
