They have a "next generation MMO" in the pipeline, but my guess would be that it's a graphical update to the existing world. With a head start, years of steady improvements, premium upgrades, world-class art and design, and hundreds of millions of dollars, Blizzard is an entrenched foe.

I'm exceedingly curious about both Warhammer and Age of Conan, and both have chosen on multiple occasions to apply another coat of paint. It would have to be better than WoW to succeed, now. The game could be as good as World of Warcraft, and even this would be insufficient. The reality is that it wouldn't matter if the game were completely incredible. Your dungeon entrance says something about you as a subterranean civilization, and this one said that I could avoid it altogether, and not miss much. Anyway, it looked like it was entrance to a dungeon that I had no interest in raiding for ancient wealth.

My heart went out to the woman in the recent clip for Dungeons and Dragons: Stormreach.
