In-Development Indie MMORPGs
MMORPGs require years of hard work, both in the art and engineering departments. At the beginning, in the late 90's, MMO games were mostly innovation of the West, but nowadays, as far as I know, Korea, Japan and China are the countries that develop the largest chunk of modern AAA MMORPGs.
