Huh? WoW gearing is easy as hell this season. Yeah it's not 2 hours until max level but there's more easy ways than ever to get good gear. Hell, you can get a piece of the second highest level armor every week doing solo content

Some friends convinced me to try GW2 and I had the opposite experience. Everyone had all their fancy mounts and stuff from past expansions and I couldn't do shit unless I went back and did the relevant campaigns...each of which is several hours. I got close to max level and quit. The combat is also painfully boring IMO
