All MMO's (including WoW) have a pretty good story, but you're not playing the story, it's most of the time history from what happened in the world. Some people like that, some don't.

probably that's why i never got into mmos - i like to be a part of this and the only online i prefer is in action games.

Actually, FFXI puts your character into the story and makes it part of it.  They really did an ingenious way of doing story in that game and pulled it off nicely.  Again though, you just have to take the time to do those missions to get the story rather than just grind away.

Are you kidding?  The intro is awful, it hardly connects you at all to the world, and you're dumped into a relatively barren game.  The other players aren't that social, the controls are pretty awful by PC standards (hooray for multiplat with consoles), and the only good thing about it was the macro system.  I played it with two friends for a two week trial.  It was my first MMO and after those two weeks I was ready to let it be my last MMO.
