Treadmilling is still there, (as in CoH and any other MMORPG), but GW pushes
you into action from the get-go. No days spent chopping up dogs and rabbits
and frogs. Quests from day one.

yeah
that's why the bit on Guild Wars intrigued me so much, it seemed to innovate
away from treadmilling.

Lineage is for the harcore...that treadmilling is pressure.

A boss review (preview, ramble, epiteph, what have you) of city of heroes
Strangely enough, the guy lambastes their other MMORPG offering, lineage II.

Here is a snippet
The new, T-rated online games for the PC each cost about $40, plus a $15
monthly fee. The similarities end there. While "City of Heroes" features
teamwork and hours of engaging play, the medieval setting of "Lineage II"
suffers from boring, repetitive tasks, creating an effect that gamers call
"treadmilling."
Any comic book fan will instantly recognize the story behind "City of
Heroes." The sprawling virtual world of Paragon City has been overrun with a
host of evil menaces, including the Rikti aliens, the superpower-enhanced
Freakshow gang and a shady corporation.
Your job? Eradicate the bad guys.
