All of those things can be changed, for a better Everquest server:

1.) Increased group exp
2.) Level restrictions on equipment and buffs, and how quickly it's possible to level
3.) Competition allowed, making full 6-person groups the most desirable thing for being able to control an area you want to fight in
4.) Dynamic NPC spawns and behavior, again making 6-person groups most desirable, so you have the ability to handle content that unexpectedly ramps up in difficulty
5.) Reincarnation system so people are constantly restarting their characters, keeping the low/mid level areas of the game active
6.) Empty server so the 36 people still playing can have all the camps their hearts desire!


Playing an easymode clone of a very outdated game is a bad investment. Most people realize this and would rather a game that rewards adventure and is more unpredictable and full of interesting interactions.

People can choose who they group with, and getting a character to max level certainly wouldn't need to take a year. Although if it did take a year, that's perfectly fine if people are having fun. Level is just an arbitrary number. It just shouldn't feel like a dull grind, which is part of why people feel the need to power level to begin with. When you read a novel you're enjoying, you don't skip ahead to the end. The joy and intellectual stimulation doesn't come from simply reaching the end. It comes from the whole thing.
