Very Lonely Game doesn't sound exciting at all...
Honestly, I think WE ALL have unreal expectations from MMORPG'S at this point and compare them to games that have had massive budgets, massive teams, etc. Just look at this classic server and how accurate they spend their time to get every little bug the way it was back then. It took years to get EQ "Polished", same thing with WoW, anyone from WoW Beta to when the game came out, it wasn't "Polished".
These games always had all sorts of problems, bugged stuff, patches needing to be done monthly if not weekly. Constantly making the interfaces better and more user friendly, etc.
As far as new ideas, well you can only come up with soo many new idea's. As soon as the first person does truely come up with the new big thing, there won't be another MMORPG as popular as EQ/WoW/DAoC/Etc til then. I was hoping SWG was going to do it for the Star Wars fan I am, but end game was a joke and buggy as shit.
We live in the day of the Carebears...
