Is this the future of MMOs? WoW clone built by AI attracts thousands of players

▤ Summary

A hobby developer used Claude Fable 5 to build World of ClaudeCraft, a browser-based MMO inspired by WoW Classic. The game reportedly came together in about 48 hours for roughly $200 and already offers classes, quests, trading, duels, gear, bosses, and group content. Players have responded positively, and the project now counts more than 27,000 active players. The article argues that AI can speed up prototyping and early game development, while also raising questions about quality, balance, and legal issues.
