you want to do something neet, try combining an rpg with a sf2 style fighting game.
Add the twitch factor to a game like eq, and it would rock, especially for pvp.
Think about having to do a shorukin(sP>) in order to cast a fireball. Skills help affect power, accuracy, damage, and most importantly, ability to link combos.
think how much fun playing a monk would have been, and it was about the most twitch character in teh game.
Thats something where its not just limited resources holding you back. Think of a naggy run where the tanks had to block when naggy attacked, damage dealers had to land their combos to get the dps needed. That would be a fun encounter.

Latency is a big problem with those. Otherwise, FPS gameplay would have hit MMOs a long time ago. Heck, already I lose WoW fights in PvP due to lag.
Who knows - maybe there is a way to do it.

Not sure about Vanguard, but Dark & Light is a new generation of MMO game IMHO. Massive PVP, huge terrain, ONE server, multiple kingdoms...etc... |
Interesting, where do you get your info.
I played the alpha the other day(DDO), looks like its a "Go" project to me.
