I haven't played either game, though I've read several reviews and I was wondering. Which of the two games has better "Character Differentiation"? I mean, which game is better at making players of the same class look different than each other? For example, let's say you have 5 new paladins in either game. By the time they reach, let's say level 30, which game does a better job of making the visual appearance(clothes, armor, weapons, jewlery, faces, etc) of the paladins different from each other?

Character design, body type and all that jazz; Everquest 2. Equipment varitey, ect likely World of Warcraft.

In EQ2… Every plate, leather, chain and cloth class will look exactly the same at their level… Unless they are in a raiding guild or are extremely luck with random rare loots.
This could have been prevented with race specific armor… but SOE was too lazy on that point.
Hell… I even think everyone has the same armor tint/art look from 20 up to 40.

But you can make your face look completely unique, which is more important to me.

Well that sums it up. I guess they went for the "Diablo 2" approach. I prefer hoarding and finding items the way you do in Diablo 2. As much as I like being able to "play dress" up, WoW seems like the better choice.

Sorry if I'm not clear.

I mean Everquest 2 has a lot varitey in it's body and facial customization. Warcraft has a lot of varitey in it's equipment graphics and all that jazz

Both slightly lack in the opposite catagorey it seems. So, you can play dress up if you like.

Most of Warcrafts visuals for equipment are unique, and like Diablo 2 (the itemization is actually fairly similair) there are a shit ton of items.
