It will occur, and had occured.

Even a power gamer, they will consider "is it an endless path?"  My
friends and I, we 11 ppls had more than 20 sets of EQ accounts. How
many ppls left inside EQ after PoP released? only 3. and 2 of the 3
ppls are jobless. How many time Verant raised the level cap? 2
times, from 50 to 60, then 60 to 65. Who could say Sony wont release
another expansion pack when he need more cash? Exp grinding is ok,
but endless exp grinding is not fun. Killing the first dragon in
your life is exciting, killing the 1001 huge red dragon lord isn't.
