These games don't have the gameplay to compete with actual single player games when playing alone, so it becomes really monotonous and repetitive, quests or no quests.
It's true that MMOs are supposed to be played in group. However, it can be hard to find an efficient group. Sometimes, the parties you get are so bad that you have no other choices but to solo. If the game gives you more ways to lvl up than just killing random mobs, i'm cool with that. Quests can be interesting if the system is well done. Earning special items through those quests makes them even more appealing. If you still prefer to solo, then it's all up to you, but keep in mind that there are people who like quests and not everyone find it monotonous and repetitive.
