Star Wars Galaxies?

nope.

Here are some more hints:

25. a) This MMO from a well known franchise managed to pass Everquest in total number of subscribers.  Of course, about a year after the game's North American launch World of Warcraft was released and completely dwarfed it in popularity.
b) Originally, combat in this game revolved around parties performing skillchains together.  After the success of WoW, this game changed a lot of it's mechanics and skillchains became less important.
c) Races in this game include Elvaan, Mithra, Galka, Tarutaru, and Hume.


24.  a) In this 80's arcade game you can shoot monsters or drop apples on them.
b) This is the first of several arcade games developed by Universal using this same character.  You dig through dirt like Dig Dug, but you drop apples on the enemies instead of rocks.

23. This is the first of several games in a series where you develop your own theme park.

23) RollerCoaster Tycoon?

25 - In a franchise that tends to build upon the past, this one started from scratch with 150 new entries.
26 - Shockingly, this game was not well loved by fans upon its release and to this day still gets some ire for its art direction.
27 - It's 50% Souls, 50% its own thing, 100% fun, 200% difficult. Oh, and there are grappling hooks.
28 - One mechanic everyone hates, but it triggers something primal in you. If you hear this noise, you HAVE to rescue them.

"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."
