I'm just wondering, does Blizzard even know about this or are you just selling their asses on the fly

Is it just me or does anyone else think that this is just Actishit planning on releasing shit quality games to make more money*? Honestly, Blizzard's games are so anticipated and done so well because of the time they spend working on their games.

Blizzard about a year ago:
"The merger hasn't changed ANYTHING! WE PROMISE"
Activision today speaking on behalf of Blizzard:
"BLIZZARD WILL BE RELEASING 6 GAMES IN 2 1/2 YEARS, OR ELSE!!!"
(thanks Scrumpmonkey for pic)
But seriously, WHO DIDN'T SEE THIS COMING A MILE AWAY?

Actually, if you look at it as 2 WoW expansions, 2 SC2 expansions, and Diablo 3 and one expansion, its really not all that impressive.
Just because a "leaked" schedule included the mystery "Titan" does not mean it is either real or on schedule. I'm going with the many expansions and the already known D3. Not exactly that exciting when you look at it that way.

This is exactly why I hate Actvision. Quantity over quality. Well, goodbye 'good' blizzard, at least we still have the memories.
Considering the time it took to make SC2, which in my opinion was more of an "ok" title than a real blast like SC, I can't help it but worry about the quality that will come out of such a "short" developpement period. I'll probably buy the others SC2, at least for the story, while praying it isn't another "space white cow-boy saves his girlfriend".
Seriously, anyone remembers the time when Raynor was just "a nice guy trying to do good", and when the player was actually spoken to by the characters, which felt WAY more immersive than having to play whoever the game wants you to.
Also, I think our only hope of ever seeing a Warcraft 4 would be for Blizz to declare the whole WoW continuity non-canon, which I think would be HILARIOUS.
Diablo 3, well, to put it properly, I played D2 : LoD, I liked it, but wasn't a huge fan (more of a casual player). So, to put it in a nutshell, I'm not going to get an always-online game if there is an equal alternative which I find more intriguing (because yeah, I'm more curious about the world of Torchlight, of which I know almost nothing, than about a world in wich you must kill Satan for the third time).

I am actually on board with you on that one. I think they should stop with WoW for a bit and make another warcraft 4 and make some more story elements/places and add on expansion on that as well so wow could get more content. It might actually work.redisforever said:
Blizzard has explicitly stated that titan is a new IP and not related to either the Warcraft or Starcraft Universes.
Also with blizzards track record i would be highly skeptical of their ability to crank out 2 wow expansions by 2014. At this point they won't be shipping X4 till at least q3 next year. If they do manage a second in that window its going to be on the very very tail end.

I don't like the sound of this. There's a reason why Blizzard takes so long to make its games - so that they're good and polished. If you speed up the release times then that's all gone! D:
You know, that really threw me off. I was reading it and wondering how they'd manage that, but you cleared it up nicely.Hungry Donner said:Greg, there's a typo in your article, I'm pretty sure you meant 2041, not 2014.
I'm skeptical, but I think Blizzard might be able to release six games by then.
