    This genre will be over saturated and dead before it even gets the chance to spring.

    You couldn't be more wrong. MMORPGs have had their run, and MOBAs and F2Ps are taking over. Just look at the decline in the once immortal WOW's subscribers in the past couple years. If that's not evidence enough for you, I don't know what is.

    The more players it has the better the game is, right? Over saturation is very heavy in this genre, with BioWare, Valve, Blizzard, and a whole bunch of other companies vying for playerbase. Still not as bad as Realistic Military Tacticool FPS

    I'm not saying that. I'm saying that, as evidenced by the decline in subscribers, people are getting tired of the fantasy setting that was in 99% of all the MMORPG's of the past decade. Let my refrase my previous comment. MMORPG's aren't dead in the water, but people ARE getting tired of endless grinding in an identical-looking field/forest/dungeon a bazillion times just so you're strong enough to beat a boss and get some loot. Now the game-changers such as The Old Republic are the future for MMORPGs.

    TOR isn't an MMORPG's isn't a single player game disguised as an MMO the servers only hold 1000 people and they already have to do mergers, the PVP is terrible the raids suck dick and there's no end game content The only thing it has going for it is you can just painfully wade through the terribly acted and written stories that last forever
