All right, so during the week this story might be brushed off as a crazy unfounded rumor from a random French site, but it’s the weekend and we’re all about the crazy French during the weekend.
French gaming site NoFrag is reporting that they have a reliable source that has informed them that Blizzard’s next game will be partly a first person MMO. Of course we all know Blizzard has been working on a new IP for some time now and that it is going to be an MMO, so it is expected that details would leak out at some point. Whether that point is now is dependent on how much faith you want to put in the French.
The site also claims that the game will take place in a futuristic world where players will have two lives. The first life will be a sort of Sims Online interactive social hub. This character will have the ability to connect to the second life, which will be where the fighting takes place and most likely the first person stuff. It sounds odd and extremely metaphysical to say the least.
To justify posting such a blatant rumor, let’s end this with a question. What would you like to see the next MMO from Blizzard be?
