I actually blogged about this just today.  My general response is
that they convince the player base that quests are the best way to
advance, and then used the quests to send you across the world to
fight/do different things.  While it's still a grind, the pattern
breaking that's occurring here dramatically reduces the tedium of
what's going on.
