GameSpy has thrown up a developer diary written by Sony Online's Rich Waters regarding their upcoming massively multiplayer online RPG, EverQuest II. Here's a nugget:

Designing a game of this size is a pretty daunting task. Unlike many single-player games, which are able to focus on doing a few things very well, EQ2 needs to provide a wide variety of distinctly different gameplay within a single product. Some of the biggest elements to tackle are character development, quests and adventures, crafting and trade skills, combat, and social interaction. Each of these elements is very popular with different types of players, so we're doing our best to provide a high-quality experience in each area.
