I bet Blizzard isn't going to the bank saying "We better get a sci fi game going cause WoW is failing miserably. It's Fucking played out. Someone get Tigole on StarCraft MMO STAT!" |
The commercial success of WoW has absolutely nothing to do with being high fantasy, and everything to do with a word starting with B and ending with lizzard that they print on the box.
I'm honestly not sure why they didn't decide to make a Starcraft MMOG instead of a Warcraft one; maybe they though that the races would be too difficult to translate into MMOG terms, or whatever.
I'm tired of high fantasy, and a lot of people are with me. It's just that no one seems to be able to make a scifi MMOG that doesn't suck.
