MMO?!?!?! Oh noes! Please quit while you're ahead and seriously rethink this.
Doing an NWN style CRPG is natch for Pathfinder. MMOs fail for a lot of reasons and one of the biggest ones - for me at any rate - is the lack of new content in a timely fashion. I'll hit an MMO and usually have seen and done everything inside of 3 months so there's no reason to stick around. A development team will NEVER be able to push content faster than the players can devour it. So having your player base create content - whilst they await official content, adventure modules as DLC - it keeps people happy.
Lastly as an RPG Pathfinder is about party/co-op play. Most people who play RPGs play them over MMOs for a lot of reasons and a big one is they like the intimacy of small worlds/communities. At the very least if you insist on a more MMO style of game make it more MUD-like to preserve and develop those communities and the RPG essence of the game.
Cheers big ears!
