Zehn is showing one completely opposite end of the spectrum of the way gamers think.
Bottom line is Zehn - EQ2 wasn't made for gamers like you. It's obvious to me that Everquest 2 is made with smart decisions that will appeal to the masses. What design team would say to themselves - "Hm, how can we make a mechanic so that people can rush through content and level super fast if they want to?". The ultimate goal appears to be instead, "How can we make the game fun from level 1 until level 70, and allow people to enjoy the game's content regardless what level their friends are."
Mentoring is single handedly the best thing in EQ2. Knowing that I can always mentor down and play with friends but not be overbearing and force the content to be rushed is awesome. Being able to go back and experience content like a noob again - that is fun to me. Not plowing through dungeons with ease and then selling the items to make cash. For me - that's not immersive and its not fun.

There's a lot of us who care. A lot of us who want to play the game as it was intended and not speed through things. I want to play with friends, but I don't want to either a) do everything for them or b) have them do everything for me. I want to work as team.
