I haven't played since Dragonflight, is the game loop at end game still the same with the occasional one off events? how has the expansion been compared to DF?

>Are they supposed to just hand off some kind of private server formula for every online game made now?
Not necessarily, all that's being asked is that the product stays usable in some way. What that means is up to negotiation, it just means that there's HAS to be something set up.

>Isn't that going to be a huge pain in the ass for companies, drive up prices, make development time longer, and be tough on smaller indie devs trying to release multiplayer games?
not at all, it just forces companies to not cut corners and figure their shit out, that's their problem anyway if they can't figure it out
