ArchAge: do you remember Vanguard? great concept but at the end, too many theme-park paradigms (yes, i did survive this terrible launch, thats not the point).
GW2: what if they fail to implement dynamic events really revolutionary and at the end they are just the better public quests or rifts?
TSW: i dont know enough about this game, but it seems to come out of the sandbox corner, which means nothing (see ArchAge)
WoD: i just know one trailer and its CCP. is CCP enough for a good game?
TERA: aimed combat does not solve the issues of the modern MMO. whats about the 90% rest? all i saw about these 90% have been the same old mistakes.
SWTOR: i expect a great single-player game. 8 games in one box, thats a great price. with all MMO-features. but all features alone, does not make a MMO.
Copernicus: who the hell mentioned that one? we know even less about it than about WoD
so i would be more than happy, if i could at least play ONE of these games "longer than the free month".
Archeage looks interesting - I really liked Aion up until when rifting got nerfed.
If Archeage matches Aions beauty and addresses all the problems that Aion had in terms of faction imbalance, PvPvE, combat balance - then it could be awesome.
Planetside 2 is the only game im looking forward to, though im sceptical if ill be able to play it like i can the first with my 200 ping, but this is SOE, and they can can code...just not security. its one of few MMO's coming out that does things differently...and by different i mean the same as the first one(One of few true MMOFPS'). 100% PvP, skill based action combat, no instanced PvP, with some RPG elements to it. +1000 players per fight. umm...cant wait.

funny, I have the same confusion
let me take the pessimistic point of view:

WoD, ArcheAge, and PS2
World of Darkness is the one I'm most looking forward to, though it is probably going to be quite a while before it comes out.
I'm also looking forward to Archeage, and to a lesser extent, The Secret World and Dawntide.
Hell hath no fury like an MMORPG player scorned.

TRF - GM - GW2, PS2, WAR, AION, Rift, WoW, WOT....etc...
Future Crew - High Council. Planetside 1 & 2.
i think the only 3 big title for me is GW2, ArcheAge and SWTOR
but SWTOR is probably last on the list
not too sure about TSW
i think Tera could be good, but i cant say much as i have not been following them since they announced Beta
So What Now?
