I was checking out at what other developers are doing these days for inspiration and ideas, and I was very impressed over the latest Adventure Quest game:
http://www.aq.com/Apparently it's only been online for a few months and is being updated constantly with real time quests. I never really got into their past games because they were turn based, but this one is very impressive because of it's simplistic yet powerful interface. I particularly love the nav system. Anyways, I thought I'd post a link should anyone else be interested.
