Funny, I always thought that the Trinity of Tank/Healer/DPS was developed because otherwise most MMO players would quit after the first dungeon instance when an end-boss threw out a cleave that was higher damage than everyone's health points combined.

If WoW had not become so popular, do you think we would even have MMOs today? It was a pretty small niche market, with only thousands of users playing in any one game.

All that aside -- name a couple of MMORPGs that do not utilize the Trinity [in any fashion] that have any sort of popular following.

Inquiring minds would like to try them out.
