Eve is probably the closest thing to ultima there is but the main issue is over time there becomes the long time players who run the biggest corps and new players who get destroyed in low sec then the world becomes stagnant in need of a reset. Maybe eve would be more interesting if they added some kind of AI driven calamity though it forcing corps to actually do anything other than hoard endlessly until the servers shut down.
