Well lets face it...game content would get boring after 6 years of kunark / velious... they had to release expansions because Sony sure as heck wasn't doing it free...would you have preferred 12? different continents of Norrath then? I mean....

I do agree, after a few years of the same territory, things would get boring,
a few years, not a mere few months of an expansion.
And I don't exactly play to see as much as possible, or have an endless journey. When velious came out I was in aw, everything was perfect about the came, it didnt need anything else. All i wanted to do was to explore every area like the back of my hand, and some day make it into one of the top remaining guilds that stuck loyal to non 4teaming, I wanted to help some day defeat the most powerful evil guild that seemed to always been one step ahead of the lights.
It was always my *newbie dream* to some day become the best paladin on the server, and to some day win in the BotB yearly tournament held by GM's.
During my playing times, it simply was not possible because of the expansions that were rushed out afterwards, after every single new expansion the top guilds had to boost their requirements for apps. Which indefinitly created an endless struggle. So as if it wasn't hard enough to get into the best guild, SOE also pumped in an endless amount gear that poured in through every single expansion. Meaning that it was impossible to get the best items, and there was no ultimate boss, or creature.
It was perfectly known that whatever existed now, would only be outdone in the next expansion, and the expansion after, and the expansion after that to keep you endlessly drawn to the game while they stretch out what was some of the best qualities of EQ, in the great bilbos words "like too little butter spread over a slice of bread" (did that come out right?)
Pvp (tallonzek's rule sets), Botb & ToT's yearly tournaments, and that little bit of high end was all that i needed. I would still be happy just playing with those.
