There is a new Interview with the Blizzard Vice President
http://www.empireonline.com/interviews_and_events/interview.asp?IID=620How do you imagine you'll be able to top Warcraft in the future?
When we announce our next MMORPG it’s not going to be another WoW - we’re not a company that tends to tread the same ground. It’ll be something innovative and new that really brings entertainment to another level.So i guess we can see a Diablo MMO in the Future!

Besides and Diablo MMO and a Warcraft MMO would be too similar.
after 6 or so years, I had to change it a little...
Besides and Diablo MMO and a Warcraft MMO would be too similar.True dat.
I think that a starcraft mmo would do alot better than a than a diablo mmo.
A diablo mmo would get kindof boring and there wouldnt be much of a point.
Perhaps their re-using those resources for something else? *cough*

Total time played: 9125 Days, 21 Hours, 29 Minutes, 27 Seconds
Time played this level: 39 Days, 1 Hour, 24 Minutes, 5 Seconds
I think Starcraft fans want a RTS not a mmorpg and i think thats the same for warcraft fans too. I see them doing a starcraft rts in future tbh.
I see diablo more fitting for a mmorpg because it's what people who played that are used to.
Though i hope they come up with a new franchise tbh, something original

The MMO gaming blog I write for.
I still remember playing the demo version of Warcraft I and saying, OMG this game rocks... and bought the full game based on the demo.
Warcraft 2, again, jaw dropping.
Around the time of warcraft 3, i had no computer, so naff...
But i did play diablo 1 (if a little late) and diablo 2, my my diablo 2, you have stolen a chunk of my life, but thats ok as it was all fun.
And W.o.W.... best game ever? Probably.
Can't wait for blizzard to release games now!
C'mon blizzard, lets get Sci-Fi already !
You said you don't tread the same ground, ... sci fi is a'callin.

No way. Sci-fi games have more possibility for originality. Fantasy is getting worn out.
But anyways, I would love to see a SC MMORTS. There is only 3 MMORTS that I know of right now, and they're all kind of bad, although Ballerium is really cool, it always lacks funding, and will never be complete. Ahh the trials of being an indie dev.
MMORTS FTW!
Read it more closely. It says 'we're not a company that tends to tread the same ground.' Meaning that they aren't going to make another game based on one of there old ones anymore.
Mustache is a cat
That has to go to the vet
Do your taxes now
If you read both interviews neither place do they say they will put out a SC game before a decade... only that they hope it won't go over a decade, which is going to be hard to do now...
Also, no where have they announced anything or even given a hint to the fact they are working on a video game at all. All we know is that they scrapped SC:Ghost.
of course, I can't find the article, but about 3 months ago, before the BC, Blizzard announced they were working on NO OTHER titles besides WoW. So don't get your hopes up too much, you have a long time to wait considering they are putting more effort into their movie deals, Card games and Board Games then actually making PC games.
If you look at their hiring pages in the past year, they're either making another game, or for some reason, WoW needs a lot of new technical development people... highly doubted the latter of the two.
Think that concluding that there is coming a Diablo MMORPG is a bit to soon. Actually, we don't know if there is coming a MMO at all. I mean, it can be just an example.
current game:
world of warcraft.
how original
I want Starcraft 2 to be rts. Not MMORTS, not MMORPG and not MMOFPS. I want Starcraft 2 to be as big as SC was on the E-sports scene. The only way that gonna happen, is if it requires a lot of skill, and the only it's gonna require skills, is if it's RTS.
