idk man, i see them slowly but surely justifying the addition of more mtx and more types of mtx untiill it becomes the norm. they are within their right but its obvious what the intentions are focused on, again within their right, but that doesnt mean that the game(s) i grew up with should change like that and its not what i signed up for so yea i already left :/
I feel like MMOs have already been reinvented nor has been Blizzard ever been involved in that process. What Blizzard is good at is taken ideas (Im not dissing them) and adapting/refining them. There isn't an original thought in WoW.
I don't think we're see too many many more table targeted MMORPGs that can be traced back to EQ. Instead you'll get more games more akin to ESO, GW2, BDO, Ashes of Creation. Or your genre mixing games/hybrids/looters EVE, Star Citizen, Destiny, Division, Warframe, <online persistent survival games but I can't think of the name of any right now>

Wait what?
I remember project titan... It was literally based on the old glyph system. How did it become overwatch?
ur confusing path of titans from cataclysm with PROJECT titan which was a cancelled mmo

its not the sole reason but its definately part of it. i have been wrestling on and off with wow ever sicne cataclysm, ive only recently had enough starting in legion/bfa, its going in a direction which i believe is not what the soul of world of warcraft was and what i grew up on, and what many i presume did as well, to each their own, its obvisouly subjective but i still believe that some things are just objectively not better for the game.
TBH I really don't like MMOs, just got really invested into wow years ago and have been hanging on since. If wow ended I don't think I would start over in a new one unless it was something very unlikely like a Metroid MMO (not Blizz I know) or something. I would be interested in a Starcraft MMO but resistant.
Hands down the StarCraft MMO.
One thing I will say is I sure noticed the og devs leaving in Cataclysm, lol.
I've never liked MMOs that take place in current or future times or settings and I highly dislike post-apocalyptic (and to some extent steampunk) settings, so I'll say that I'm happy none of their MMO ideas saw daylight. Every MMO I've ever enjoyed has been in some way based on swords, armors and magic and taken place in worlds that have not gone through significant technological evolution.
I haven't played Overwatch a lot, but the little i have done, i really enjoy everything around it, the character of the heroes, the art style, the way the game plays, everything. I would love to see blizzard bringing in front new ideas once in a while a not again a new WoW expansion or a new a new Diablo game.
what existed in 2007 thats worse than what we have today

same, i believe their art style is the best of their IP's, i love the old warcraft 3 style too tho

thats too bad i think a fantasy sci fi setting can include any theme possible, including swords and magic haha, its the opposite of being limmited
looks like majority want starcraft.
cant say i disagree
While I never really got into Diablo 3, I did play Diablo 2 extensively back in the day online. I'm rusty on the lore but I think the general vibe and aesthetic would lend itself well to a new MMO with an expanded universe.
