Seriously why do you need some one to give you or other players direction? Give me a big world let me explore it and do other things when, where and how I choose to. I dont need direction, there is no need in this. Maybe some people need their hands held all the way to level 50 or what not but I dont, and I am sure not everyone wants that.
As with most (all?) other MMORPGs, there is always the ability to simply grind and explore and not even bother with quests.
What do quest bring to the table that D.I.Y. gaming does not? History, lore, a broader view of the environment and its inhabitants.
It's not always about direction. It's not always about "quest-based-leveling".
