- toast0 3y agoDark Sun Online [1] was released nearly a year before UO, and was a graphic MMO. UO was certainly better in most (all?) respects. Which is why it has an enduring legacy, but it was only one of the first, not the first. Neverwinter Nights[2], is arguably a much earlier MMO, running from 1991 to 1997 on AOL.

- samstave 3y agoRan a NWN server from my house for a LONG time... from servers and racks from defunct tech-startups in the ~2000 down-turn. Had an awesome setup in ~2001... On pennies... I couldnt imagine running anything close here in the greedy-era.
