Wired's latest interview with Blizzard COO, Paul Sams has delivered some information that the firm's top-secret MMO project will really be something, but it will not replace current the most successful MMORPG World of Warcraft, and will give "an game experience unlike anything done before."

"I think the game is going to be significantly differentiated enough [from WoW], such that, you're not going to feel like they're one  in the same resulting in that you have to pick or choose," Sams said. "My feeling is that they're distinct enough to where you're  going to say, 'Okay, I have all my friends over here. I dig this, I have a lot of time and energy in this, I've got these characters  and my guild, and this that and the other.' So I have connectivity there, and I want to continue that connectivity. But man, I think,  'Well, this is awesome, and I want to go check this out too.'

"And so maybe they'll split a little over time, or maybe they'll decide they don't want to play WoW anymore, and they'll go and play  this other thing. That's a high-class problem to have. As long as those folks are hanging out with us, which I believe they will be  because we're going to keep providing the best experience you can have.

"So, while there could be other games out there, if the bad thing that happens to us is that they leave WoW and go to this other thing  of Blizzard's, then we'll work through that pain." [via VG247]

Once I was wondering some company would defeat Blizzard, now I change my mind, just look at their game list, Starcraft 2, Diablo 3, upcoming World of warcraft: Cataclysm and this top-secret MMO, too many reason for me to drop that silly thinking and focus on those games.
