The original game was planned around lvl 20 in development initially. Once it was realized that much more was needed to make a fleshed out world, (and the concept of EQ was gaining steam with people) it was pushed to 50.

So basically for the OP, kinda. If I remember the devs never thought Everquest was going to be as big as it was when it released. So they started with a small game (lvl 20) to see what would happen, it got a lot of buzz and whatnot, so it was then fleshed out to 50.
