BTW, the last time we heard this talk it was that Starcraft would just be "Orcs in Space."

So how the hell did that work out for those crystal-ball readers who thought Blizzard would just copy a game?  

I think we're going to hear the "Orcs in space" line a lot, from people ignorant of the history of the most consistently successful gaming company ever.

Source? WTH are you talking about? This guy is god. That's the only source you need. For real though, word around the campfire has been Blizzard (Activision) would announce their project sometime this month to try and "Top That" on the BioWare Lucas Arts announcement. Theirs is another MMO pretty far in development. 2 companies to rule them all and steamroll the fail.

Well, we know that they'd have to be total idiots to try and roll out a WoW 2.0 in a new skin.  So, they'll do some thing different.  Who knows exactly what that will mean though.

I do know one thing though, a lot of people have argued that the WoW style of MMO is the only viable style.  Will be really interesting to hear the comments if Blizzard takes on one of the other designs out there...

Due to complaints by employers about employees calling out "sick" to play a game and an overall interest in solving the job-cut crisis, Blizzard will be introducing:

World of WorkCraft

Employees will think it's just a game...

I might be wrong but I get the feeling all these people who love WoW hate all these WoW clones, may as well just play WoW they say even though they are getting sick of it. To make WoW 2.0 would be a tremndously stupid decision. Simply a different world with different characters, classes and skills but with the same quest heavy, simple skills/items system wont be hit past the initial box sales. By the same token neither will a full on UO skill system, AO item system, EvEs marketplace and politics in a full loot open PvP world. I've never known Blizzard to make a bad game, WoW may be simple but so was Diablo, its just that many of us here were already experts in the genre before its release. There must be a fun satisfying quality to it for a newcomer of which there are very few left which leads me to believe they will aim there game to a more intermediate level of gamer and a decent game to boot.

Most WoW fans don't even realize that Starcraft is really Warcraft III with a different skin.

This has to be trolling.  No one alive can be this ignorant, right?

it could be a sandbox, or some FPS MMO like Stargate Worlds, but I would like to play something like Spore but with the MMO component

this  could be f'ing fantastic news... it could be total bullshit.. or to a lesser extent it could just be another huge letdown on the way.......

 

I think the only way I could get really excited about an MMO nowadays is for Blizz to make a TRULY different MMO...

 

time will tell

While I would hope for a Starcraft mmo, I doubt it. And while whatever it is will undoubtedly be on par with WoW, that's why I can't get excited about it. WoW's been done, and unless they plan to go a whole different route, a new one will just be WoW reskinned, and I really have no interest in that.

 

I think it may be something different. While they may go the route WoW did, I believe they have enough money and the balls to do something different. Either way its not like they would lose subscriptions. If they dont like the new one they will stay with wow. I have enjoyed blizzards games and have confidence that this next one wont be so bad. But thats just me.
