Why is there still so much to do at end game?

How to prevent running out of things to do: Do content you don't find enjoyable.

(Note: I take your post as an example, don't take it personnaly when I'll say "you". It's just easier to generalize and get people more involved. Also, I will be speaking about PvE content, not PVP.)

There is no problem not doing the things you don't want to do and claim that "you're done". This is totally valid. You should not be doing it if you don't like it.
You're implying that "I'm done with the content I enjoy to do", and this is a completly valid point. Not everyone is a masochist.


But this is missing a point: the true problem is people who expect things to never end. They expect the "end game content" to last forever.
Like this guy, posting something earlier in the thread which sounded like this: "I played for 3 years and now there is nothing interesting for me to do! This is unacceptable!"
Really? Is it really unacceptable? I think not.

As I was saying in my first post here: some players want to clean the end game content in order to find some kind of "promised land". Guess what, there is none. You'll just clear the end game content until the devs release some more, and that's it.
There is no miracle there, you won't get instant fun if you finally grab the best stuff in the game. Santa won't cover you in present after you did everything you liked doing (even if you do the stuff you don't enjoy).

Even the film "The NeverEnding Story" has a end. Who knew? (Well, at least all the people smart enough to realize there is so much you can put on a VHS.)

Players should stop thinking that MMORPG = endless content. It's not.
Even with some kind of random generaded end game dungeon, you'll eventually loot every piece of gear and then be bored of it.

"Yey! I got myself the final gear I needed and cleared the final dungeon! Now what?" Now nothing. You got the final gear and you cleaned the final dungeon.
*Throws some confettis*. You're done. Wait for the next content update, or leave the game.

There is an end. Once you reach it, there is nothing else until next content update. Period.
