Asia-based developed MMOs suck.
Japanese, Korean, Taiwanese, Chinese... they just suck. Bad.
The concept of "fun" is thrown out the window in favor of money-sucking grindfest.
And yes, I've played quite a few, and spent a few years in RO as well.

Unfortunately a holy merger of cute-cuddly designs and quality fun MMO simply hasn't happened.
No, I won't throw rocks ... what I like about them is the atmosphere, motifs, etc. Story content is a disaster.

Syn's list of what she'd buy is 1:1 what would get me hooked in an MMO. Much as I hate to say it, WoW was the last time we saw an MMO release that combined all the 'best practices' of the time. Unfortunately, they've thrashed around since then.

These days I'm looking for community, roleplay, and the tools to do it -- no one seems to be stepping up for that. I may end up back at EQ2 and its antiquated graphics at this rate
