I actually really enjoy EQ's aspect of like, early repeatable quests (belts and gnoll fangs etc) for serious EXP output (gnoll fangs gave my HEF ROG about a yellow and a half at level 6, I could definitely still utilize them up through level 8 and maybe 9), whereas many other quests were for faction or loot.
In that aspect, I feel like it's questing system definitely succeeded. There were quests for EXP that were obviously for EXP because you gathered the items while grinding, and quests that were far, far more in depth with legitimate stories that eventually resulted in some good piece of gear. I don't know all of the quests in EQ, so clearly I'm not totally qualified, but are there any very long quests or hard quests that result in pretty much nothing?
