We all know a UO2 by EA in this day and age just isnt going to happen ... if it doesnt have the indgredients of WOW in it they wont do it... It would have to be something dumbed down and appeal to the masses... like Harry Potter.... or something just as equally lame... it will be a themepark game, I know it you know it.... anything otherwise is a pipe dream.
I do remember a time long ago when EA games actually meant fun games, but when they started to move from Commodore games to PC the downfall started.
So fon't get your hopes up, it will probably be some kind of Everquest/Wow clone set in a licensed world.
My guesses are: Wheel of time, Game of thrones, Narnia, Some kind of D&D world (Dragonlance, Forgotten realms, Ravenloft) or maybe something from a movie (As someone above said, Harry potter is not unlikely).

Sequels are the antithesis of persistent worlds.

To game developers, that is the persistence. They live in their own little level grind world.
Once upon a time....

Have you ever played 40k? Warhammer and Warhammer:40k are different things. One is fantasy, the other sci-fi.

Not only was that over a year ago, it's a) closed now, and b) not as much an MMO as a viral marketing campaign.
Evil will always win, because Good is dumb.
