It's a vast and open plain IF communication issues are solved, but
there are three sets of costs: development, deployment, and
maintenance. Each has its costs, and even if you reduce the
front-loaded costs of developing and deploying a new MMO system, is
all that money now going to go into bandwidth? Granted, I'm clueless
as to how the money is spent, but that's a non-negligible issue,
particularly over the years such a system will run, and graphics are
much more bandwidth intensive than gamestate.
