Neverwinter Nights, released in 2002, got a lot of excitement from RPG fans. But did you know the original game was released in 1991? Same concept: online RPG play. Only on the then-private network America Online. 500 players at once! The 2002 game even looks like the 1991 game, similar perspective.
I found this game in the hysterical anti-piracy video Don't Copy That Floppy!. Ironically, online games like they feature are exactly the kind of game that's nearly impossible to pirate.
