Where did EQ Live go wrong?

[Skekekke]

I wouldn't say "EQ went wrong," it's still a successful game. So to say it failed, we are blinded by our one sided "classic or die" opinion.

The game didn't fail, it just changed, not instantaneously (well kinda, stats drastically changed when GoD came out), but over time. People are still paying to play it, and it's numerous expansions.

What happens when we get to the point when Velious is capped out? What happens when there's nothing more to do, just the same thing over and over? Make another toon? Twink it to hell and back? Get bored and quit, or release a new expansion, and retain players? That's all EQ did, try to retain it's players (Marketing) and keep the shareholders happy.
