World of Warcraft: new patch and new MMORPG

The last time that I wrote on this World of Warcraft blog it was on may, when I was first in Warsong Gulch with one of my WoW characters, Weirdtales. Many things have happened since then, maybe the best surprise has been World of Warcraft: Cataclysm, the last expansion of the best Blizzard game. Maybe you too are enjoying Cataclysm, but Blizzard is working on a new mmorpg, Titan (that's the codename).

Will be Titan as succesful as World of Warcraft? Unfortunately there are now few details about this mmorpg, but it's sure that it won't be a sequel of WoW. According to Blizzard CEO Mike Morhaime Titan will be a mmorpg where Blizzard team will try to leverage what they have learned from WoW and other games. So they are trying to implement features and elements that they cannot put in World of Warcraft...but what will Titan look like?

It is impossibile to say at the moment, but it will be surely very different from WoW. At Blizzard, they are trying to develop a “social mmorpg”, where players are much more involved in their guilds and can fight against their real friends. I don't know if this mmorpg will be loved by World of Warcraft players. Many wow players like PVE and playing on their own, helping other players when needed and joining groups just during dungeons. It seems that Titan wants to duplicate the success of some Facebook social games.

I'm curios to see this new mmorpg, but I hope it will have a greater success than some other Blizzard social initiatives, like Real ID. Anyway, let's carry on playing World of Warcraft! There are now some hotfixes related to the World of Warcraft: Cataclysm patch 4.0.6, including the Dungeon Finder changes. You can find here the uptadated list of hotfixes.

Cya!
