The problem is that EQ listened to its players too much. I don't mean that game devs should ignore player feedback, but sometimes you have to dangle the carrot a bit to keep people playing, instead of giving them exactly what they ask for.
I quit playing after Depths of Darkhollow came out. You know, the expansion that added monster missions; where you could now theoretically reach max level without actually playing your actual character. Resulted in many people at high level with good gear who didn't know dick about how to actually play.
