Personally I hope they can pull it off. I have seen so many MMO start-ups fail because they would never be able to get and keep investors. Dominus, an amazing concept, that had a working beta, never made it, simply because they couldn't get the funding needed. I don't need WoW. Hell, I don't even like WoW. I want a game that mixes the amazing player driven game play of EVE Online, the community caring and togetherness of DAoC, with decent non-stylized(aka WoW) graphics.
