I don't think its the case though (growing up). Games just aren't what they used to be, and theres just not much demand for games like EQ, even when they are available. In a perfect world, we'd have a perfect reproduction of EQ classic, with an enthusiastic staff that communicated with us, and thus, a significantly higher playerbase. We'd have more frequent updates, events and bonuses, and players to group/pvp/exp and raid with, and the "grind" would be more enjoyable like it once was. It aint meant to be done alone... Now people think the game thats always had a slower progression, should be grindless. People say they don't want it, but when its not there, the game is not meaningful and your time investment doesn't feel worthwhile. The same way winning at tic tac toe is less meaningful than winning a game of chess or Risk. Even with a server thats stable and as close to classic as project99 is, a portion of the playerbase doesn't want classic (while many say they do), another portion doesn't know what they want (while they think they do), and yet another part still won't be happy no matter what happens. All the meanwhile they actively engage in tearing down what we do have in favor of what they want even when its statedly not what is being offered. I know what I want - to log in, be able to find some dudes to progress my toon with (exp/items/dungeons/raids) and have fun fighting both the environment (pve) and players (pvp) to accomplish it. Thats classic EQ. I know because I spent thousands of hours playing it (Rallos Zek 99-01). People need to figure out what they really want. If its classic EQ, they should play and enjoy it for what its worth (imperfect classic EQ - with a very part time staff). If not, people should find a better classic EQ server (there are none), another game or a modded server that removes the grind and gives them the more instant, but less enduring enjoyment (tic tac toe).
