WoW is what, four years old now? Any new game should have better graphics, though I doubt Alon or FFXIV has a larger budget. WoW is the most successful and profitable game in video game history; Blizzard's budget for the game is whatever they feel like spending on it.

5 years...and still growing!  WoW is an absolute phenom, and people often fail to grasp that...there is a huge emotional attachment to the game for players, and to have someone forgo 3-5 years of work...to start on the bottom with a new game...you can forget it.  Blizzard doesn't even need to develop a whole new MMO (eventhough they are)...all they need to do is launch a newer, prettier WoW in 2-3 years.
