I'm still pretty new to programming, with only experience in web development
For now you should really just stop thinking about sprites, models, animation, clothing, blue/red shirts, file formats and building 3D engines.
STOP. Learn how to program first.
Your first games won't have anything to do with the stuff you have discussed so far in this thread. It does not matter if Python is capable of creating your MMO or not (although it's nice to hear it is), because at some point in the in the future where you have gained enough knowledge to write an MMO, you will probably have already learned several other languages besides Python anyway.
