I think that the game will be an entirely new genre of MMORPG (was it actually anounced as a MMORPG or just a MMO?)
It might take place in our time, or the not-too-distant future. It might be a game like GTA except it would be a MMO and much less juvenile. And it would take place in NYC or LA. But I don't think they will make a whole new fantasy realm. And I think they will try to stray from the typical character leveling/item collecting and make it more strategy based.
ooo maybe a third person shooter deathmatch MMO sort of game where the whole city is the playing ground, and you actually have a character that developes and breaks into buildings to steel guns/items that make your character stronger. And the goal is to kill other players, not villains in the game. I think that would be quite fun. Like a mix of half-life deathmatch, GTA, and WoW.
A Starcraft MMORPG would be damn awesome. Main reason being it would finally be a good MMO that is not a typical fantasy style game, aka WoW, Lotr online, Warhammer online, etc.
IMO, the MMO genre needs a damn good futuristic style game and Blizz is just the company that could deliver it.
Damn, if they are looking for a concept artist it's gotta be pretty far away...

strange apothecary souls have turned it into an ill-tasting drop of poison that makes the whole of life repulsive." -Nietzsche
