Is this game right for me?

I need advice. I'm currently following Vanguard, and it appears to be what I like. WAR seems to be too similar to WoW, is that a fair assessment? WoW did not keep my attention because it was only based on trying to obtain a new piece of armor or a weapon. Is there more to this game?

But to answer your question bluntly, while the game has "phat loot," the game is more based on Realm vs Realm gameplay much like DoaC was, especially since the game's end game is more or less about end game skills rather than obtaining new armor or gear. The game has Perma-Decay in it, so even if there was a piece of "armor of uberness," it'll deteriorate over time.
actually vangaard smells more of WoW that WAR. Vangaard is a native type PVE game like WOW, and maybe they will put together a PVP server with a special ruleset but its not in the core of their design focus.
Vangaard simplified, is a next gen mmo, taking the best from WOW, EQ and EQ2. (inteface WoW, EQ pve progressing and EQ2 grapphics).
WAR is more like DAOC. realm vs realm pvp in constant conflict with the ultimate goal of sacking each others capital. also noted that WAR will have less of a gear focus and more of a skill focus to prevent the yberweaps to dominate the pvp efforts.
if im wrong, stand me corrected
lol
How is Vanguard any different from WoW?
WAR is VERY LITTLE like WoW, and people who make such comparisons have obviously done very little research on the game. I also disagree with your assement on WoW itself, but I won't get into that argument.
Vanguard and WAR are 2 totally different games. Neither is similar to WoW either.
Vanguard is a PvE Centric game that will favor group play over the rest and that is aimed at a more "hardcore" market.
WAR is a PvP centric game that do not plan to favor a style of game over another. Solo and group will both be represented. There is no raid content planned at the moment. It is more casual and mainstream with things like little penalty for dying, fast travels, not much downtime and so on.
So, you can decide on your own.
