Something else I notice is that people say it's a game when I think it's more of a user interface than some 'game'. Sure, you can customize your own little place and your character, but it's more of a visual representation of the network system and not only that, it's a free service.
Somebody might say, "A character and an apartment to customize? This looks stupid!", but I say "I can't wait till I can finally meet up with friends, party up, and jump into an online match!"
Perhaps I'm looking at it deeper with all the features and not at face value (ex- The Sims or Second Life knockoff)?
