What MMORPGs involve time-travel? Why is this elusive?

Of all the MMORPGs I've tried and studied, I've not come across a single one that involved any sort of time travel.

There have been other games that involved time-travel (numerous other games, actually.) However, why does time-travel have to be Überly elusive in the MMORPG field?

Warning: I could be on NoDoz caffeine pills so I hope I don't post anything outrageous!

    WoW has it in the form of the Caverns of Time dungeons, going back in time to events that have happened in Warcraft history.

    Everquest had an expansion where you went back to historical events.

    But time travel is kinda confusing and hard to add to a MMO. It would be one thing if you made a game based on it, like a Doctor Who MMO but otherwise it easily just feels cheesy.

    The Defiant faction in Rift feature a time machine during the tutorial area.

    World of Warcraft also has it in forms of Outland and Northrend.

    Thank you guys for your answers so far. I might look into them.

    (I may look into the World of Warcraft ones if I figure out how to sign up for a Korean server.)

    Now I wonder about traveling to an earlier patch; an earlier era of the same MMO. (Not like WoW's travels to, say, Warcraft II through those dungeons...)

    Moreover, is there an MMO where, when traveling to an earlier patch, if I played in that said patch, would I get to run into myself? What would happen if I did? image
