I really think devs first and fore most need to start games off with 3 factions like they did in daoc. This covers up so many balancing issues honestly. Basically if one side is or becomes to powerful the other 2 group up untill the power shift changes. Another idea I had a while back when I was learning computer animation and jotting down game ideas etc. Was for an mmo to span time periods. That way one group may be more powerful in one era of time but they would have to pick and choose battles. One group couldnt own ever era of time at once. It would take to much work so other groups get have a chance in one era of time and avoid fights vs a super powerful group
