Closest comparison to UO

Stellos

I played UO back in beta and 3 years after it was released.  UO kicked ass, but I feel that it is simply outdated at this point for my MMORPG needs.  Any suggestion to games in development that I can look towards in hope of an updated mirror of UO since UO 2 is out of the question

Darkfall seems to be similar to UO to me.  Only problem is, the release date of DF is more uncertain everyday.

Most have for me:

Player owned houses, long character development, good PvP system, and great crafting system.

Play UO again I have gone back on siege and im having a good time. I agree about DF who knows when or if it will come out maybe AoC will be good but its level based and generaly speaking im not a big fan of level based pvp games.
