Have you tried GW2?
It's the "beige diesel station wagon" of MMOs. It does everything people explicity ask for: tame monetization, distinct playstyles, a world that's worth playing outside the most recent level-cap zones, broad cosmetic options-- but it's still seen as an afterthought.
I hear about it every now and then, but honestly, I thought it was long gone just not seeing news of it floating around. Ill have to look into it a bit more next time I get the MMO itch.
Another rec for GW2. I'd recommend you try the F2P game so you get a general sense of the mechanics and see if you like it, then wait for a sale to buy the "Elder Dragon Saga—Complete Collection" for half-price. I mean, there's enough content for it to be worth 100 bucks, but for 50 it's a bargain.
