I still remember all the amazing things Garriot said he wanted to put into Tabula Rasa when he first announced it, and look how that turned out.
Yep. Will Wright has explained it as "Massively Singleplayer" where everything you create is uploaded to a central server that then distributes characters to other players asynchronously to populate the millions of unique worlds. You even get updates about how other players interact with your creatures. IE: Whether they get blown up, traded with, yadda yadda.
