With the gaming community speculating on Blizzard-next-big-project conspiracy theories, which as we all know, will only be announced next week, rumors are already flying around that the game announced will be a Starcraft-related project. While Computer Video Games magazine and a few game blogs have cited the to-be-announced Starcraft-sequel game to be an MMOG of sort, our sources in Korea have heard it right from an insider in Blizzard Korea that Starcraft 2 will still be sticking to its real-time strategy roots. Albeit with enhanced graphics and new elements of gameplay, and new multiplayer features to satisfy the rabid Koreans. While the rumor of a new MMOG from Blizzard is being fuelled by the fact that the developer has also posted a job opening for an MMOG project, our sources again told us (thru the same insider) that it will not be a project announced on the same day as Starcraft 2, and that it won't be based on the Starcraft universe either.
Rumors aside, I'm pretty darn sure Starcraft 2 will be an RTS-based game rather than an MMOG. It just doesn't seem to make sense to me that the company will be announcing a new MMOG title, not when there's still plenty of milk left in the cow that is World of Warcraft. As for the rumor of the as yet untitled MMOG project, Blizzard never has the tradition of announcing 2 new titles in one sitting. So I'm also betting that this new MMOG will not be featured in next week's Blizzard Korea Presscon. I'm happy to be wrong though. But whether this new MMOG will be 'Space of Starcraft' or a "Dungeons of Diablo" is really anyone's guess. All I really ask for is another Diablo sequel though. But with that franchise so loosely linked to its creator, Bill Roper & Co., who left the company on less than perfect terms, I don't count on the Lord of Terror to return anytime soon.
Classic posts everyone
Why does every forum have an uncle working for Starcraft I'd want that question answerd, I believe people who post those lies as much as I believe I can win big prizes by ringing 0891 numbers.
I think it's safe to say Muttonchops has won the argument and defeated the hopeless grammer of gyrextt, long live sensible people may the ignorant be crushed beneath the boots of common sense.
