Everquest is like a 17th century sailing vessel. Everyone has a job to do, even if it's somewhat routine and uneventful, but as long as everyone does their role, everyone steadily makes their way towards the goal together. Sometimes things get hairy/stormy and people need to be on top of their shit. Sometimes there are major setbacks. Sometimes you literally get lost. It's definitely not the most glamorous activity, but it's rewarding and prestigious once you've made it.

Other MMORPGs are like a white-collar cubical job. Just a bunch of people doing a comfy, repetitive task together alone for something ultimately forgettable.

I like this analogy ^^
