World of Warcraft.

It doesn't fit your idea of an MMO, fine. But it is an MMO and the most successful MMO of all time for a good reason. You seem to have very niche tastes and they aren't going to be able to be met by very many huge developers that are trying to make money. There aren't tons of gamers that want to play for two years just to start the game, it isn't realistic.

You're definitely romanticizing alot of MMOs from the past but none of them were ever as complete as Warcraft. MMOs used to be known as glitchy bug fests before WoW came along and redefined the standards for maintenance and gameplay. Have other games had better ideas or concepts? Probably. Nobody has ever executed in the way that Blizzard did with Wow though.
