even though the concept of VG came out during the early stages of WoW could still mean VG was an answer to WoW in the minds of the gamers who followed its development (whether or not it was considered to be the answer at the beginning is irrelevent, it was still considered to be an answer at some point of its creation - however it turned out it wasn't).
heck this was taken from brad's page: "Been having fun in WoW or another MMOG, but looking for something new, something deeper?" its obvious that brad partly marketed VG to be the anti-wow/answer.
