King of MMO's? If it's determined by player population or amount of content, then no, SW:TOR is not even close to WoW, and likely never will be in either regard. But if you're enjoying the game, I don't think it should matter to you if it's the "King".
It left me yawning. I'll wait to see what Mists of Pandaria and GW2 bring to the table. But for now, the genre has become stale to me.
I agree it is a little early to poll. All I can say is that I am having fun right now with it and feel Bio has done a good job. My only quams with what the OG posted put was that i do feel they have broken new ground in the questing department. To say that the questions structure and lines are not ground breaking for a MMO I totally disagree with. The question is will there be enough when you are done with those and is there enough to keep you going while leveling besides the quest lines. Like many have posted on here I am under the view that the game is good enough that I will be playing for 6 months and at that time evaluate how I feel about it.
I think the next 'king' will be an MMO that brings a new approach.An MMO that is refreshing and new to us,an MMO that breathes life into the genre and actually moves it forward instead of helping it stagnate further.
an MMO that will never come...because there is too much risk involved.
Then i think the MMO genre will slowly die.
If companies want to make out big they have to be willing to take a risk.
I think the options of "King of MMO's", or not, as the only options, makes for a bad poll. It is definitely not the king of MMO's. It has a long way to go for that, but it has the potential to get there in time. The game does not have fundamental flaws. Most of what people don't like about it can be fixed, changed, added, etc... over time. Granted, it will never be the sanbox game that some people want, but it can easily be much more than it is. It has a good foundation, but I don't think it is ready to be crowned.
Premautre poll, but I do see TOR eating up some of WoW's declining userbase if advertised right. Also, that sucks about your LoL account. Ouch.
Okay, let's put this myth to bed right here, right now. Here are some facts.
1.MOST of WoW's lost subs are mostly from their Asian customers.
Ah, I didn't know that one. It doesn't directly correlate with what I posted, but it's a good thing to know, though I'm sure someone out there would dispute it or ask for citation, but I'll take your word for it. Thanks for the heads up.

2. BW/EA has never been shy to admit that they are eyeing a large chunk of WoW's base.
3. Whether that will happen or not remains to be seen. As you said, time will tell.
4. yeah, banned LoL accounts suck. OP, you should totally play Dota 2 when it comes out.

I need to take this advice more.
