OP,
Why not start now? For me, the joy of EQ is the EQ experience. I've played other MMOs, and they're alright or good, but it's running from one exclamation mark to the next. I have a hard time sticking with them, too.
And coming back to EQ I figured out why: I started playing MMOs with EQ. The grind, the free for all experience, and the ability to play through the game and not miss "the story" just because you're not constantly questing or you missed one.
Play EQ to have fun. Play EQ to get the best gear that
you can. If it's raid stuff, good for you. If it's crappy stuff that just allows you to be effective at level 60, good for you. If it's just to level a bunch of alts with no main, good for you.
EQ is about the experience.
