ESTsoft should have bought Disney's rights to Tron and used it in their character/world design... Dark world, Glowing stripes, Flashy world, who wouldn't say no?
Frankly this -twilight- feel of MMO's loosely based on Zelda's Twilight Princess Hyrule are making me sad. Dusk-like setting with lots of greenery in a fantasy setting, I find personally a little too overdone. Actually, I'm a little too tired of the "ancient" or "fantasy" world and when it comes down to it, it's really a graphic battle.
I'm going to argue the setting makes all the difference, and to be honest most companies aren't trying to break out of the mold with this. I think a creative backstory with a well-thought out environment makes MMO's that much more interesting to play.
