There tends to be a lot of community interaction when people are actually in the same zone, but every new thing requires a new zone and any community that could exist is hobbled at the knees.
XIV has a serious problem abandoning content as soon as the zerg-rush is over. It wouldn't be perfect, but not just abandoning a zone to create another might go a long way for the whole "MMO" aspect of their game.
