This is probably one of the few games that has managed to partially make a dent in the MMORPG market that is so heavily influenced by World of Warcraft.

I've never played a MMORPG and probably never will, but with so much success in that computer gaming genre coupled with the anxiety over piracy in the PC gaming industry, it would seem PC producers and publishers are leaning more towards MMORPG's to find a consistent cash flow.
