I think the main reason (along with the WoW lameness) is the search many gamers have for more intelligent, in depth gaming. In some cases, perhaps simpler gaming.

WoW and other, what I call GORG's or Graphic Only Roleplaying Games, require substantial hardware and screen and sound commitment. You can't multi task well with them and the depth of intensity is peripheral. A big reason I left them back in the hay day of Ultima Online.

This is a bit of a derail, but notice how many people text or twitter now adays. You don't graphically text on your phone nor is twitter a big movie or image plug. Both are hugely text no sound. What are MUDs? Text baby.
