The Mount & Blade series has a pretty unique and challenging/realistic way of doing melee combat. Your sword swing/thrust depends on how you move your mouse. Blocking is also controlled in the same way.
The reason that WoW and Diablo are never going to be able to have PvP on that level is because it is impossible to balance in loot-driven games.RTS and fighting games lend themselves perfectly to the E-Sports environment because everyone starts the match on an even playing field. Blizzard has said that the classes in Diablo 3 will never be balanced against each other 1v1, it would require them to constantly change the entire class and effect the PvE aspect of the game.
