Why 'Monty Python and the Holy Grail' Needs its Own MMORPG

These days MMOs are adopting a free-to-play model. Revenue is generated through microtransactions rather than purchases or subscriptions. This lowers the barrier to entry for developers and gamers alike.
But even with such a crowded market, I think there's room for one more MMORPG and I think, if executed properly, people would play it: Monty Python's Holy Grail The Game.
...
Now, there's no reason this game would necessarily need to be an MMORPG. It could very well be a co-op RPG similar to Diablo, or a single-player RPG for that matter.
The reason MMORPG came to mind is that, although I'm not much of an MMORPG player, I do think the big open, social world would make for some really unique and funny interactions. Monty Python has inspired generations of dorks to quote it at length, making the social potential of an online game really exciting.
Indeed, although this is largely a tongue-in-cheek post, I would love to see a game like this.
Would a comedy MMO be actually enjoyable, or would those quoting dorks make it an unbearable experience? Jury is still out on the verdict.
