I should add that the game that prompted me to collect my thoughts (per aptly described wall of text above) was ArcheAge. I had high hopes for the game until I read this:
"After reaching level 10, you can combine any three Skillsets to make a unique Class. You can swap Skillsets in and out to change Classes as often as you like, with no predefined path to follow. Experiment and discover Classes to fit any situation, and all with the same character!"
Looking more and more like P99 is one of the last refuges for classic MMORPG gaming goodness. Its sad that the new generation of gamers is so ADHD and flaky that you cant put any real obstacles in front of them without them getting frustrated and cutting off their revenue stream to the game company.
