Sadly yeah the current state of mmo's is really lacking but I guess in the end its the player base. Some want mainly pvp some want mainly pve. IMO the player base has simply become very fickle. Its all these kids these days.

I was vetern of the old EQ, then got sucked into WoW. I liked the game but Blizzard's management sucked, and I found the game over so damn easy. So I quit mmo's for a while. Then a friend called me & said that EQ2 had went through a change and so I tried it & just over a year later I am still playing. I think it is tons easier than the original EQ however isnt as easy as WoW. Many people I have ran into refer to WoW as EQ for dummies. I would love to still be playing the original EQ but after EQ2 & WoW came out the player base dropped so low it wasnt possible to raid anything. Also normally I would say that in most games I hate crafting, this is one EQ2 stronger points the crafting can be addictive, repetitive but addictive.

Also to me these games are all about choices, EQ2 has the most race/class choices out there... oh well there is my commercial for EQ2.

On a side note yes the kids get really annoying & to respond to an earlier post I prefer PvE, a group of players that know how to play their characters working together on a common goal. Not a big fan of PvP which is normally bunch of random players that have no clue what there role a battle is whacking any other player characters that they can try to gank.
