-no projects have been announced-"wow is dead"guys at least wait until they announce something before you start doomsaying.
Starcraft MMO!
They will only succeed if they do something that has never been seen before and is so different it doesn't have competitors, because they could not compete in today's markets and monitisation trend with fickle players that change constantly.
Imagine if they get Kaplan in on it, would be epic
Yasss i wanna see their proyects, i wanna see blizz falling
It'll be interesting what they can come up with. I think these studios will be a good litmus on whether Blizzard was "right place, right idea, right time" lightning in a bottle, or if these guys can create new industry powerhouse IPs under similar conditions as when they made Warcraft, Diablo, and Starcraft the first time around (similar but not the same because they're all older, with different tastes, in a vastly-different industry).
Hopefully they won't end up being bought by Activision or something similar
