It might seem like you're starting over at first, but you're not. When I went back to the starter areas, there were different quests available (not including the repeatable ones). I leveled fairly fast on my second class, and I'm now beginning to see the possibilities of multiclassing (which you don't have to do, btw). And you do have an option to swap gear between classes at the press of a button.
I'm a 6 mage/12 priest, which means my current primary is mage, though I started as a priest. I can switch back whenever I want if I want to tap into my priest primary powers. For now, I have mage primary powers and priest secondary powers. This adds an interesting strategic element to the game, which I like. I can be more of a blaster with some healing capabilities, or I can switch to a main healer and have some electricity up my sleeve.
The same goes with the other classes: a primary set and a subset of powers. If you're a paladin, pick up scout for some ranged abilities. If you're a warrior, pick up rogue to tap into critical strikes and other nasty skills....etc., etc.
So as you go along, you can switch back and forth for different play styles and to level up each class. It's up to you how you distribute your powers. You can see what sort of abilities you have coming down the road.
