If Blizzard would have spend more attention to the lore of the game, the game would have been superb.
Then again, about 90% of the WoW players doesn't mind the lack of lore at all.

Anyone tried Age of Conan by chance? It looks like a really promising MMORPG, and I might be serious competition for WoW, even though it has very high system requirements.
