Do you agree?

I agree. Diablo MMO called Sanctuary (Speculation). Would drop WoW in a heartbeat.
The levels are just getting out of control. 120 levels, jesus. And long leveling now to boot. Time to end it and start with something fresh. I don't care how much time/effort you have with your toon etc. It's a game. Time for a new Blizzard MMO.
Yeah, sure, it's def a viable business decision to kill one of your big money makers in favour of something that's unlike to draw enough attention. Blizz tried to create Titan, they abandoned the idea and scrapped what's left for the OW.
MMORPGs in their current form are pretty much dead and the market that's still there is saturated.
MMO sequels tend to fail spectacularly and fail to recapture the original audience.
Better off just upgrading the graphic engine.
Everquest 2, Destiny 2, SWTOR, and Everquest Next all say that sounds like a fucking awful plan. Guild Wars 2 is the exception, not the rule, to MMO sequels finding more success than their predecessors.
Be seeing you guys on Bloodsail Buccaneers NA!
No. World of Warcraft is fine as it is and doesn't need to end. Still has plenty of story to tell.

What constitutes a next gen MMO, shitty repetitive action combat? Good graphics? WoW is fine as it is.
lol i HIGHLY doubt that, diablo is niche, as it should be, wow has mass appeal. In diablo you cant play as orcs, or any number of other fantasy races, and thats a massive draw for these kinds of games. Diablo is a dungeon crawler, it doesnt need to be mmo to be fun, if anything an mmo diablo would probably ruin the game.
Also good luck getting wow 2 to draw in everyone who has invested into wow, the problem with a sequel is legacy content, wow has that in spades
Levels also dont really matter now, if its really a big issue, they could just do a level squish, but the time it takes to level 1-60 isnt the same now as what it was. Sure they could reduce the total XP to keep it in line, but its really not that big a deal, its just a number.
each expansion is basically a sequel to the game, only you get to access all the content from the previous games. also there is very little they could create in a new game that they cant just add to this game.

wont happen.
Expansion is a sequel that gives you access to all of the content from the previous games, a numbered sequel is the same thing that doesnt.
There is nothing they would gain from that which they wouldnt gain from simply adding new features to wow, unless they had some grand idea for a complete class overhaul
I would totally play a starcraft mmo. Playing as a zerg? yes please.
I'm all for it, but neither the conservative Activision-Blizzard nor its even more conservative fanbois/gurls are going to ever accept it.

says NOPE.
Why would you even suggest something so silly?
No. WoW is fine. I hope it continues for 20 more years.
