I guess that exists in the MMO?

Star Wars Galaxies was that. And it was an open sandbox style of MMO. But a few things just killed it
They overhauled its combat and crafting system and the membership hated the changes.
When it first came out you just couldn't just pick being a Jedi. Instead you had to complete this next to impossible to figure out checklist of achievements that was seemingly random. Eventually they made it easy and suddenly in a world that took place after order 66 there were thousands of Jedi in each city on each planet.
But you could build a house, become a crafter, buy a ship and fly around fighting.
The SWTOR is similar, except its got a lot more single player content. But you have 8 classes
Republic
Smuggler, Trooper, Jedi Knight, Jedi Consular
Sith
Intelligence Agent, Bounty Hunter, Sith Warrior, Sith Inquistor.
Each has its own story line, you can get a ship but the ship part is basically a rail shooter unless you get StarFighter.
