Moreover those that don't like it in the MMO community are not  really the majority, well they are a huge minority but it was enough complaints to get this article written that is for sure.

A lot of people are very clear on the concept of Supply and Demand. Where the customers what it, or crave it generating a great demand and the Industries and companies come together and grant it, or Supply it in other words. Simple tactic of supply and demand. The more the customers want the more the Companies push out.

American companies are not really all that big on creating Anime styled games on their own, so as of late they have been taking on the more popular games that have been out for a while. Actually this is not something that has happened lately. In fact
