ok I have always been wondering this really.
seen some polls and such about the sort of same, but they leave people able to just click something and go "meh" not answering anything else
as I find EU the most boring game ever with the least diversity I keep asking myself "What really keeps me in the game?" many claim to not be gambling addicted and they do stay for the fun, I sort of said the same uintill something else caught my eye and I could say "whew, I am only game addicted not gambling addicted"
Eu is dull and it is boring, its a fact, there is 3 things you can do. or well 5 that differ from each other, in these '5' things all things are bland in and 90% similar to each other, what changes is how you do it, and what you use to do it.
Sweating sort of is the exact same as hunting, just take away the killing and looting part. PVP is the same as hunting too a little more "action" there though, but if the player or mob is way over your range, you will die almost no matter its the same, it really is. and no, killing an dasp stalker is not different from killing a daikiba young. you shoot it, difference is what you use to kill it.
gathering dung and fruits goes under mining only taking away the bombing and drilling..
and that covers 90% of what you can do in EU. and no matter what you find you can fit it nicely under either Hunting, Mining or Crafting
So why do people really play the game?
for myself, I can't see why I want to play, no I'm not quitting by all means, so something has to keep me, and theres one thing that ATM keeps me, hope of the mentoring system to kick back, helping people at least is something that leaves you with the feeling of actually doing something, accomplishing something, sure that too is very simple thing, and you can just pump money into the diciples to get them to EDUMACATE them selfs faster, but that really doesen't help them as much as it could
sure most other games, FPS, MMORPG's, MMOFPS, RPG's etcetc you can say the same about "you do this and you do that". but there, in those games, those games who are good, doing 1 thing leads to one result. doing another thing leads to another result.
SO I really wonder, why do people keep playing EU? what is it that swirls in each individual head as an answer when the "Why do I really play" question?
feel free to answer or discuss but keep it yelling free, everyone is entitled their own opinions, just don't aim them at someone =)
wish list for different things to do:

- Mining, drop bombs, drill, and run around. mining in a nutshell.
- Hunting, run around, shoot mobs. and loot them. hunting in a nutshell
- Crafting, stand still, click or autoclick a button. crafting in a nutshell
