So I guess we need more World of Warcraft then.

  There hasn’t been a major MMO released in awhile, and the only one that is anticipated is Amazon’s own attempt hitting Early Access this month: https://www.newworld.com/en-us https://www.newworld.com/en-us Other than that, Phantasy Star Online 2 is out on Xbox, and later this month on PC: https://pso2.com/landing https://pso2.com/landing Few developers are attempting ambitious MMOs now days sadly.

    Not really surprising given how much a MMO cost. (High Engine+Infrastructure Dev Costs, High Content Dev Cost, Cost for frequent new content and other cost to keep people playing, much competition even against "old" games like WoW, etc.) So I'm not really surprised if companies opt for CoOp and non-massive multi player concepts over MMOs and if they have a still working MMO prefer to maintain (milk) it over any new development.

    Few developers ever made ambitious MMOs. A lot of developers made big-budget WoW clones which failed because the market doesn’t want WoW clones. Very few MMO developers have tried something new beyond “quest, grind, loot, repeat”.

  No, World of Warcraft is definitely a video game first. Try Second Life.
