Compare this to WoW where you can steamroll shit to max level with garbage quest gear, a horrible build and spamming a couple buttons - all solo. Then all of a sudden you're dumped into a 20 man raid expecting to execute with perfection and do within 10% of your maximum potential damage/healing to pull your weight.

One thing i hated in WoW was that, playing with level 50something noobs, in live EQ, if you played like a noob, like pull aggro from the tank all the time and die, people would notice and by level 20 would be harder to get groups.

Can't remember who had it linked in their signature, but it was a great article on how EQ was different and why people got sucked in.
