This is the game that is built on SpacetimeDB. It's quite an interesting project.

What's your definition of AAA?

This is uncharted territory and we are essentially running an experiment. For this reason we’re not licensing or open sourcing the game’s assets - the art, music, and IP will still be protected for the time being. But all of the code that makes the game run will be made public. We have not chosen the exact license under which we will be open sourcing the game’s code, but it will be one of the OSI’s approved open source licenses.

So am I understanding this correctly that means no private servers, just convenient ways to create your own client?

From the linked site’s home page:

This means you’ll be able to browse the codebase, modify the code, share the code, host your own servers, experiment with mechanics, or just satisfy your curiosity about how an MMORPG ticks under the hood.

Wonder if they'll pull and id software type thing where the code is GPL
