How offten do you see someone that looks exactly like you? I played FFXI and every hour I would see someone that looked exactly like me and it kind of anoyed me. I'm use to city of heroes where no one looks exactly the same. How does this game compare?

So-so.

The armor is awesome looking, yes. But there are only so many types. Hair and face style are widely varied, and I know that my character looks quite a bit different than other characters. The graphics are good enough that you can actually tell to (unlike WoW, for example.) Being able to dye armor is also helpful.

But still, a lot of times people look quite a bit alike. It would be nice if there were more options for customization. I know that ANet is working on things, but I don't really expect the individuality things to get better anytime soon.

That said, GW is still light years ahead of most games in the individuality respect.

each of the 6 professions is very similar in appearance with minor varience depending on type of armor

if youmean an exact duplicate down to the hairstyle and color probably not that often

an elementalist basically looks like an elementaist for the most part so to speak
