I still don't know how you can pay for bandwidth and servers and staff only from sales, however.

I am guessing that a small monthly fee is in the future once everyone is hooked.

I know that Sony makes a mint off of EQ.
NC Soft also does City of Heroes, Lineage and a bunch of other MMO games. I think that they can figure to tap into the non-MMO crowd by presenting something that is more akin to Diablo and just eat the server cost, but have that much more of the market share.
