MMO kind of implies that you’re online with everyone at once, at least in the overworld

By that definition an MMO has never existed as all of them are divided by servers.

But!

Let's say an MMO becomes unpopular and there's only one server left and at most 70 concurrent players, is the game not an MMO anymore because some games with 100 players on the same server aren't considered MMOs?

poeple are bored shitless with fps style multiplayer games, and after that, bored shitless of crappy lead tier mmos likes WoW, NW, GW2 etc whose endgame is really shit. Compared to Champions of Regnum or DAOC, all the lead tiers are boring as hell. Zero endgame creativity -- the only thing that makes mmos worthwhile is solid endgame RvR open pvp. If ur mmo doe not have it, then you will perish like The Day Before.
