Quests -- doesn't leave that 100 year old 'go X kill Y collect Z' pattern.
Gear -- it will always be tier z vs tier a.5
Graphics -- "It is the style that matters and it is as valid today as it was two years ago." Can I rephrase it as "No improvement"?

BIASED

» it's not challenging enough
I would consider buying BC only if one of the following is true:

1. it was released a year ago
2. it gets a MAJOR graphic overhaul
3. it offers a NEW CLASS (not an old class from the opposite faction)
4. it creates a REAL casual player friendly environment (of course they are always "trying", but nowhere near hard enough, for some obvious reasons)

for what I know none of above is true so, nope, period.

CenirVI is absolutely right about the meaningless grinding for the sets.
In WoW, and most other MMORPGs, whoever invests more time, wins.
No matter how good you are, you can't hope to win somebody with superior gears.
In the early days I once dreamed of completing UBRS with just a team of 5 with regular gears and be proud of it. But after watching people duo it with epic sets it became a joke.
And if you happen to own some full epic characters you'll know the battleground is just a matter of noob nuking... which I found no fun in repeatedly doing so.
Wow has just reached 8 million subscribers, so I believe it does have something that still attract people. Not for me however. After 9 classes of lv60, countless of hours and everything the current game had to offer (dungeons, quests, hidden areas, gears, etc) It is just not my game anymore.
