Biggest problem I had was the Internet connection and my own PC hardware. Dial up killed me more than anything in EQ, DAOC, and EQ2. I live in a rural area and we didn't get the speed to play MMO's well until 2007. I loved EQ right up until Luclin and then it faded for me because I had problems playing due to technical issues. I switched to DAOC which I thought was an outstanding game, but its first expansion ushered in the same technical problems again.
I really liked EQ2 but again, expansions and its video requirements ended up killing that game for me too. You really have no idea how much I like broadband unless you've played MMO's on dial up for a long time. That and having an improved PC helps. It may not be top of the line, but it plays games well.
