The #1 reason not to be interested... Anthropomorphic animals. If they can't resist that tired old gimmick, how can any they possibly resist the rest of the eastern MMO plagues?
That's true, but asking for something actually new is like asking a politician to go against popular opinion and do the right thing. It's far, far too risky for the current crop of MMO developers.
Mass-Market Online Games.
You want originality, gotta get outside of the MMO space. /shrug

Looking at that video; if memory serves the core development team for Guild Wars were once developing for WoW and left because they did not like the direction WoW was going,(they brought Ghostcrawler aboard). If my memory is chronologically correct, seeing how awesome GW2 is looking and the current state of WoW I wonder how much the higher ups at Bliz are regretting the decisions they made back then.

They pretty much hit my full wish list. Except I also wish for a release date.
They seem to borrowing town invasions and auto grouping from Rift.
Limited skills from themselves.
Achievements from WOW
Personal instanced section of a town? Some for of housing.
Self sufficient characters...they stole that from me since i always tried for that by using hybred characters in other games. 
And last but the best is no monthly fee. Might make it my retirement home game |

I had 0 interest in any new MMO until I watched both of these videos!

I hope the combat is exactly what they say it is.
Basically like Dark Souls, you can die easily but live nearly forever if you know how to block/dodge/avoid the right attacks and counter at the right time.

It almost seems like its taking on the style of a FPS, it says ranged classes have to aim and cant just "lock on" like other games. Even when you run out of health and your in the down state. Allies have to get to you and get you back up in the fight, its just like Call of Duty, Borderlands, and Army of Two. Im pretty excited for this combat system, even melee can miss if you dodge out of the way.
