... But it's not massive. All areas are instanced. That's why it's not an MMO. It's also part of why I love it -- while you're exploring with your heroes and henchmen it's essentially a single player game with online chat, because no one else is out there with you. You'll only see other people in the towns or if you do co-op things like missions with other people, or get into PvP.
The game also does not have the same kinds of required grind as most MMOs do. There is grind, but it's almost entirely optional. This is something I really, really like about the game...
As for the amount of time, 45 days spread over a period of years... should have played it more, really. There's still so much for me to do in that game... it may not have a monthly fee or as much grind as most MMOs, but there's still a huge, huge amount of stuff in that game. It's strategic, with the many skills and having to choose eight and only eight to have with you, fast-paced, beautiful looking, and fun for hours on end.
