Warhammer Online Smashes World of Warcraft
As ET editor Jim said, you can give Warhammer Online a try. There are several ways to level up or to get gear. Depending upon the time of day, you can easily find a group to join. Mythic makes it easy, just right click an icon in the upper left of the screen for PvE groups in your area or an icon in the upper right of the screen for PvP groups in your area.
You do not pick up lots of money, however, the monetary system is different from most games of this type and most items found at the auction house are cheap, so, if you need a piece of gear that you do not yet have, check the auction house.
You can also make a little extra money by selling items at the auction house instead of to an NPC merchant. As soon as you add an item a minimum and maximum price is automatically provided and at least half the people use the default amount to sell. Sometimes you can get more if an item has a lot of adds and it is for a class that is popular at that moment (most people make different classes to at least play around with, to find two or three they like best).
