In a recent interview with Gamasutra, Blizzard's COO Paul Sams gave a very brief glimpse of what's to come in the company's top-secret massively multiplayer online role playing game, code named "Titan", and that they think it will be the company's next big release after Diablo 3. In the interview, Sams explains that Titan is the most ambitious thing that Blizzard has ever attempted, and that they don't want Titan to compete with World of Warcraft, but to eclipse it.

He goes on to mention that a lot of people on Titan's development team are actually the founding fathers of World of Warcraft, and that those people have no been working on the new project for a few years. Details revolving around Titan are slim to none, but Sams mentioned that, "We're very confident in [the] product. It's an awesome one. We're playing it already. It is a total ball to play. We think that the reach of that product is greater than anything that we've done before. We're very excited about that. I believe that it's the type of game that will have a very long life, much like World of Warcraft has."

If Blizzard is saying that Titan is going to have a worldwide impact, then I'm pretty excited. What about you?

Blizzard has always been very good with keeping information to themselves. Leaks are rare, and even the leak from a few months ago didnt tell us much.

Lolwut. Up to now, everything Blizzard has promised, Blizzard has not only delivered, but also surpassed.

Thinking about what Sams said makes me laugh. It's absurd.

If a simple action RPG has taken them nearly a decade to make, Titan MIGHT be out by 2025. Maybe. Probably not.

I'm sort of interested in anything Blizzard puts out. Their games aren't overly interesting to me but there is no doubt that any game they make is going to have an impact. Maybe I get can get into this MMO since the last one just didn't do it for me.

I hope it's a sandbox game with gameplay completely different from WoW.

Blizzard are a bunch of slow developers, so it would take them about 2020 to release this. :lol:

The armor only sparkles in sunlight though, but you need to keep it secret.

Well they aren't looking to replace WoW.

So the only conclusion is an MMO for little girls and lonely women. "Stephenie Meyer's Twilight"

I'm gonna be on Team Jacob's side of the conflict.

It's also going to be consolized.

Its more they care more about their games then other developers and actually make them good with not any "bad" bugs or issues to where you can't play till a patch. There's a reason Blizzards games are all good and successful ^_^. But I do Agree we won't be playing this game till like 2020 :P

Can't say I care what so ever, simply because its after Diablo 3.. A game that I will most likely be playing for a very very long time.

If it's not supposed to compete with WoW, I hope it has more of a PvP focus with a high skill cap. WoW is just really easy to play. Raiding is only hard because you have to coordinate so many people, but the game itself is really easy. I hope this new MMO with some truly difficult stuff, which I think is only possible with a PvP focus. I've heard rumors it is going to be like a FPS, so PvP seems to fit.
