But I realy want to know how it compares to D2 - I heard that it doesn't have a trade system - which seems a bit odd to me. Also most D2 time is spent leveling the character and spending far too much time searching for godly items - is it the same in WOW?

One thing I love about D2 is the fantastically intuitive user interface - I tried to play Neverwinter Nights but found the totally 3d interface too complex - how does WOW compare?
I liked the interface.

There is a trade system.
