Simplicity over complexity, time to change.

Just because you don't like something doesn't mean that you can label it as something else and pretend it's not an evolution of the genre.

And you can't do the same thing.

Evolution works because it takes many different paths, and MMO's have not been evolving since 2004 because 99% of them just follow the same path. Nobody tried to evolve the MMO concept of XI, now we are seeing some other stuff with star citizen and racing mmo's and so on, but in the terms of MMO-RPG, there has not been a single evolution in the genre on a design standpoint since 1.0 failed, and it was the first since 2004.

Gimmicks and polish, we've seen a lot, but real improvements and new directions and evolution? none at all.
