MMO games are a nightmare for any company. the games are more like services instead of products
- They need to be constantly updated and patched
- Maintenace of the serves and the online architecture.
- Hack control.
- Create events and administer the users and communities.
This is why the most common is to have a development company that creates the games and a separate company that provides the service to the players. the amount of resources required can make any manager worry
