Maybe a better question is, "What made you play your last PvE/advancement game for so long?"
I would bet it had more to do with "advancement" in the sense that you were able to progress through new areas of content and less to do with "advancement" in the sense of getting a new purple sword. How long would you have kept playing if defeating Boss Zone 1 lead you to a completely identical but slightly harder Boss Zone 2? I mean you got your advancement. You got your new gear. That's what's important right? So what if you're fighting the exact same boss in the exact same dungeon but all the numbers are 20% bigger? It's advancement! Wheee!
I think it's variety of content that keeps us going, and the Poor Man's PvP-Game lacks variety of content.
