I'm not surprised...WoW is almost all they need anymore with the subs and cash shop.

Meh. In no way surprised. Honestly I kind of .................... don't care. I mean. Titan was always just this rumored thing to be happening. Now real concrete evidence etc other than a few leaks here a tiny whisper there. But it was always just brushed off by me because after all this time and nothing to show for I'd written it off. I thought they'd given up on it long ago. Maybe now they can put the rest of those resources into full updating ALL of WoW.

Not surprised, not really disappointed. I'd hate to switch to a whole new game after so long in WoW and I like WoW plenty as it is. I'd worry that Titan would make them discontinue or stop focusing on WoW, and that would make me a sad player indeed.

I think this about sums up my feelings on it as well. I had a feeling it wasn't going to pan out, but all in all I think I'm happier with them focusing on WoW as their main MMO for now.

I'm not disappointed either honestly. Sure, I'm curious to see what Titan would have looked like, but I much rather them focus on WoW. I highly doubt I'd play Titan anyways, for the same reasons I can never get that into other mmos. I have spent so much time and effort on WoW over the course of seven years, and I still enjoy it a lot. I always look forward to new expansions, albeit some more than others, and still have plenty to do ... The idea of starting fresh and investing the same amount of time and effort in another mmo is just... Not a fun idea.

I'm not big on sci-fi anyways; aliens, space, etc. just doesn't appeal to me much. I'm much more of a fantasy person.

I like how one of their reasons was "it looked like It would not be fun to play" Classic Blizz right there! Same thing they said about Starcraft: Ghost XD

The Sci-Fi/Space MMO game market already has quite a few out and some others in dev that look pretty interesting. Games like Star Wars TOR, Star Trek Online, and the upcoming Firefly MMO. Plenty of games out there for fans of that sorta thing. Blizz has the most success with Fantasy games, Warcraft/WoW & Diablo, figure that it's good business to put more resources into games that are consistent money makers and build off those for other games, ie; Hearthstone & Heroes Of The Storm.

Starcraft has interesting lore, and I wouldn't mind seeing them possibly return to the Sci-Fi/Space MMO idea sometime in the future using the Starcraft lore, or a spin-off from it. Perhaps the Titan project was lacking in the lore department, since with Blizz's other 'core games' they have set the bar pretty high as far as in-game lore is concerned. I'm willing to forgive a bit of less than perfect gameplay if the lore is good, as gameplay can be patched/hotfixed down the road but terrible lore will stop me from becoming immersed in the game world.
