Tedious repetition. What happened to EQ2?

Yea, the economy is a complete disaster. I believe small teams can accomplish things bigger than their size. We as players obviously don't know all of the hurdles that are in there way, red tape, outdated tools, lack of efficiencies with how they work. I also believe if a small team is going to really go the distance, there has to be true passion for the project. Not sure how much of that is left at DPG. And not necessarily at their own fault either. I'm sure it's been challenging to maintain any form of passion for the game after so much.
