WoW took all the lessons from EQ and built something that was just more fun to play than the GoD mess for most people. EQ was doomed as a real player as soon as WoW was in open beta. EQ2 made too many mistakes to compete.
Ironically history may repeat itself as players tired of emu EQ jump ship to WoW vanilla and eventually progression servers and remember what it was like to move from this to that.
