Verant hit the nail on the head with EQ. UO started it (Merridian 59 was a good candidate, but the machines of the time weren't up to it really) and EQ took it a stage further.
Now with Star Wars Galaxies, I think they're going to push it even further. The vaporware games that will never see the light of day will be left in the dust or become high niche games such as AC.
