Big difference between having a goal and a game encouraging poopsocking.
As great a game Everquest is/was it's also a great example of what not to do when developing a MMORPG.
There's a reason MMORPGs followed WoW's example and not Everquest's.

Go to a WoW forum and you'll find people complaining about WoW. No game is perfect. Wow is a themepark and every kid gets a trophy, some people like that. EQ is a world, it is beautiful, yet simple in design, complete sandbox with good people and bad people. The biggest gripe in EQ is endgame lacking enough content and the bottlenecks that occur when the server becomes top heavy. This could easily be fixed without turning it into WoW.
