Was it Raph that has been saying for a while that this is where MMOs were going?? That eventually we'd get to the point where there are tons of small playerbase niche play-style but profitable MMOs and maybe just a couple or maybe even no huge MMOs.
The only thing that has been impeding this has been start-up costs.
But eventually there is going to be a server-side package that a company can just license the rights too that handles the server systems for them and all that will be needed is tweaking of that package to their particular needs. Basically a UE or Doom3 engine for the server.
