Do you think the same of folks enjoy chess, or golf? I've played those games "over and over" too. I'm not inclined to toss a hobby in the trashcan simply because it isn't new anymore.

With now 27 expansions in 21+ years, what is the current rate of new expansion production? For awhile Sony was cranking them out two a year but clearly it must have slowed. Due to its age and extended timeline EQ serves as an example of the downfall of the MMO-RPG genre due to the expansion business model: If you find such a game you like, in most cases it's only a matter of time until it morphs into something completely different.
