State of the Game: The Problem with the Current Progression System

[Ilyrian]

You still don't understand what a MMO is if you think MMOs require neverending progression to be a MMO.

Massively Multiplayer Online - I don't see the phrase "unending progression" contained in that anywhere. I'm not sure why you do.

If you want neverending progression, go play a single player game where that's a viable format. It will never be a viable format in a MMO.

We clearly have a very different idea of what an MMO is. That's cool.
I didn't say I wanted 'unending progression' - but I would like something to aim for. What form that takes is why we are having this discussion.
