No one gets the time or the budget to improve them though. If you're lucky you get two years before you're forced to launch early with bugs and missing features. So you launch a shitty game and you're constantly pushing shit up a hill until your funding gets pulled because you couldn't maintain a decent subscriber base.

Plus people really don't want to play something different than WoW, they just want to play more WoW.

Can't wait for all the hype to fall on this, only for people to stop caring a week later!  Heh, remember when people where hyping Aeon as the next big thing?

People will buy his MMO, play the first free month, and then go back to playing WoW.

Yeah, they'll probably completely ditch it when World of Warcraft 2 comes out.

Arcanum was great. I wish a worthy developer would do a new RPG based on the same technology vs magic concept (I think I'm setting myself up for a Final Fantasy suggestion. So this without the uguu).
