Titan cancelled

.You missed a key part out. The prospect of a new Blizzard MMO is content enough for me to get excited about. I'm pretty sure I'm not alone on that either.

Even though it is sad that a new game has been cancelled i prefer it that way rather than having a mediocre game that takes up resources which could be used elsewhere. Now start using these more effectively please and lets hope that SC2 Legacy of the void wont reach the 10 years of the SC2 announcement before it gets released.
I really want a WC4 but they have dealt with most of the cool baddies i really liked in WOW there is nothing left
. Unless they do something with Sargeras which they left but that i am sure will be done in wow at some point.

Did you even read Mike Morhaime's comments on why it was cancelled? Blizzard have long been a company that release quality products and if they don't feel anything good during the development of a new game, isn't it better that they realise that and stop working on it rather than make some lacklustre attempt at finishing it and then releasing a flop?
As much as I would love a WC4 game now I doubt it will ever happen while WoW is around simply because WoW follows on from WC3, How will WC4 follow on while WoW is still active? It would have to non canon or run side by side a an expansion but that would just be gash.
Unless of course they explored another part of the world such as delving further into the Naga or under IceCrown etc.

Or they take a significant storyline like the assault on Ice Crown Citadel with the Argent Crusade, Alliance, and Horde forces, or even the Dark Portal events or whatever and do it from the point of view of the Alliance and Horde forces preparing for all of that. Keep it in the current story world but expand on a significant event so that it ties into the game. Like explore exactly how the Alliance and Horde forces arrived in Northrend, or Outland, or Pandaria, what they did when they got there, building the garrisons and keeps that you visit as a player in the WoW game world. As it stands now there's a small story line to follow in the game for the arrival in Pandaria but there's a perspective not expanded on with the rest of the Alliance forces. I see no reason why they can't make it from the perspective of Alliance and Horde forces in campaigns such as those and I think that would be a great game idea. Imagine how familiar it would be revisiting the places you've been to already in WoW, but actually having a hand in building them up and supplying them with the trusty gold and lumber resources! That for me would be amazing.

No.
Yes, I did read it. Since I've calmed down I have a large amount of respect for Blizzard after they've spent 7 years developing something that isn't up to standard. You can bet if it was EA they'd have done as you suggested above.
All I'm saying is I am disappointed that the prospect of a new MMO from Blizzard has been shelved.
Thanks for your post.
That would be epic. Especially the Icecrown storyline. They need to look at exactly what of their content has been most popular and take it that way, IMO.
I remember when there was talks of Titan years back, I always believed it was going to be a sci-fi MMO for some reason. Would have been good, but even Blizzard have said it wasn't fun anymore and they lost interest. If you have no passion in a game production it will fail, so it was probably best to cancel it rather than to finish production and watch it fail on release. There will never be another MMO as big as WoW.
Thanks for yours.
Well, it's not really like that because there's a lot more to it than just a game with no details. What a lot of people knew, or were hoping for at least, was a new MMO was in development by a company with a proven track record at quality that was going to be completely different to what we've got now. So in a way I'm disappointed because I was actually looking forward to seeing how Blizzard could redefine the genre and bring it into today's demanding MMO market. WoW dominates but with Titan there was an air of something completely different and I think that's the disappointment that people will be referring to now. And for it to be cancelled with no details on what it actually was after 7 years is disappointing too, but I suppose they'll want to protect their idea just in case they want to revisit it in the future.
I'd also love the ability to bring your WoW character into WC4 as a Hero class and you can lead the charge within those campaigns from your very own character. That would be amazing! Kinda like a tie-in with the new Warlords of Draenor Garrison mechanic, only you're building entire bases before leading the assault on Icecrown, the Dark Portal, Medivh's tower etc. Yeah, do want!
This.
Different doesn't always make things better either. Again, with no details it doesn't give me any reason to be disappointed, I don't know what it was, I don't know ANYTHING about it. Wikipedia isn't a reliable source sorry, ah so it was new to THEM, not like totally nobody has ever done this before.
To be fair to the Wikipedia entry, there is no information anyway so it serves it's purpose as an article linker nicely.
Seems odd to scrap the whole thing though.
