Vanguard by no means sucks. If you played vanguard like 2 years ago.. then yes. It had a lot of problems and lacked content and support. Since SOE took charge they made it what it really should have been in the first place. EQ3.
I have many level 50s and i can tell you. I am always busy with a ton to do. Not just grind and make alts. The game is full of End Game content, so much content that even the highest level guild has not finished it all. There are epic weapons, APW, SoD faction. There is so much to do in terms of raising dps with items, potion. There are items you get from general faction, items you get from quests, items you get from named that raise your dps yet a little bit more. There are even items you get from diplo. There are new dusts that drop in the elite zones that even make crafting worthwhile and still major players in terms of specialized gear. Even the flying mount quest is worth doing cause of the perma buff effect it gives your char.
The end game mobs are dynamic and much of the strategies to kill them are still secrets and closely guarded by the end game guilds. Mobs are contested and the populations are just fine. Just the right amount of end game guilds fighting over mobs, so you have to anon and try to kill it. If you fail a few times you can bet someone else will jump in and take it.
There are even AA points and expanded levels coming out. Let alone even more end game content and they have yet to charge for any expansion. That is awesome.
Sure there are little bugs here and there, and if you have an old computer it is hard to play at full quality, but nothing that cant be solved with $700.
Anyway, i just had to vent a little. This game will be around a long time and according to the GM i talk to, populations are steadily growing, so more and more will be returning and finding it all it promised to be in the beginning, The ultimate hard core gamers game.
