Although I like EverQuest for it's mana style, and Everquest 2 for that and the new class system progression, I don't find it terribly unique in flavor.I also skipped on WarCraft.  With the release of World of WarCraft, they used racial progression as seen in the Arcana Evolved/Unearthed books.  This is so that some of the more powerful races can be played at lower levels.  The new setting book was superbly composed but yet again I don't see a uniqueness that really tugs at me.</blockquote>
