    There's a reason that the most successful MMOs at present are as old as they are. ESO is probably the most recent, and it came out in 2014.
    Black Desert Online is a Korean MMO that took 1mil dollars to create and already made 1 bil in returns. Released in NA on 2016 lol.

    Is that the PC version exclusively, or including the mobile version, which has a much larger population? Also, while I haven't touched BDO since it got localized, I've heard that it's gotten much heavier on the pay-to-win MTX.
