It is 100% NOT Titan.
It's kinda my fault for giving "fuel" to these videos (there are a couple more on youtube with these images). I wrote an article a couple of months ago in which I identified most of the artists working on Titan and gave examples of some of their previous work.
One of them stood out a bit (Bram Eulares) because he had some pics on his site from an "unannounced project" that were just recently posted (the exact same pics that are showed in the video you link). So I mentioned all this into the article.
Turns out I was wrong and just after a few hours I corrected my statements while also providing proof. The pictures were from one of his previous projects, a GRIN game called Fortress that was never released. The proof was a tech demo video of this game and you can clearly see the pictures fit perfectly with this video.
So yeah, please ignore them. They are not from Titan.
On the other hand, you probably heard about ingame ads coming to Titan. Even if this is 2 months old news, popular gaming sites have just now picked up on it and they're causing quite the big fuss.
What they don't mention (because like I said, they just pick-up news and don't do any research) is that in the job postings there are also mentions of "cross-server player interaction" (which sounds a lot like all the LFx tools WoW has) and... single-player.
Here are the exact quotes
The position will focus on network communication, player interaction across server boundaries, security countermeasures, maintenance, and implementation of new server features.The user interface artist will be responsible for working with the UI Designer to realize the artistic vision of the game’s various interfaces in single player, in multiplayer, and on our websites for our current, and future products and expansions.
