    How much per month (at least in the start) does it take in server expenses to run a MMORPG game? :)

    Depends.

    If its a text based game ( i am selling one) hardly anything.

    If its MMORPG Server side/clent 2D Just a basic $15 a month is fine.

    Depends on what type of game your running..

    It will be a 3D game, but am not quite sure how large yet since it's in the beginning of developing.

    Are you looking for quality or do you wish to stay in budget?

    I want quality and wish to have a place to both store files while developing AND run the game later. :)
