What is your "endgame" like?

Reading the front page article got me interested in this and I really don't know much about the endgame phase of any MMOs, so those who do, how would you characterize your MMOs endgame?

My endgame is similar to doing sports.  I log in for a few hours each saturday and sunday to play against some tough mobs with a group of 20 or so friends.  Some are friends, others are not.  Together we work on winning and getting better as a team.   Sometimes we win, sometimes we lose.  Sometimes we get trophies.  Sometimes we yell at each other.

 

On weekdays, when I log in (outside of raid hours), we sometimes practice in smaller groups or i practice alone.

 

Well, maybe the sports analogy doesn't totally work, or rather, it works only for the raiding part. But it's pretty close.  When I was playing hockey twice a week on saturday and sunday, i got about the same experience as i get out of raiding now. 

 

For the other endgame, it's just logging in and working on my character, figuring out how i can get better or what quests i haven't done yet or what in-game i haven't seen yet.   Or just grouping with people i haven't grouped with before.

 

oh and this refers to my endgame in eq2.
