specs are:

*-Possibly newb-friendly? not a must though.
*-Different classes, cleric/healer/druid prefered.
*-A wide variety or equipment/spells/locations.
*-not a MUD.
*-Possibly turn-based fighting? (think FF-X, ps2)
*-Intense/enforced roleplay.
*-A good storyline is always nice.
*-Last, and most importantly, LITTLE TO NO PvP. I hate it. Turns games with even the best intentions into hack&slash battlegrounds.

And thats about it. I want to roleplay, not be level 4000 with the Sword of Iminent Doom and the Sacred Armor of God. gimme a break.

WoW has all of those, plus its cheap. You can completly avoid PvP by not going to a PvP server or going to battle grounds....

I'm always hearing about WoW, but to be honest I never tried it. Maybe now is the time to.

**edit**
Wow, I just watched the trailer, and im going to have to say NO.
Any more suggestions though?

spend 20 bucks on Neverwinter nights then look for campaigns.
