RE: Multiple Diablo Projects
Some people wonder, why make a new MMO when WoW is still going strong. The answer to that is pretty simple: WoW is built on a 20 year old engine and it's becoming really hard for Blizzard to hire new devs. They doubled the team back around MoP/WoD, but it took them years to teach those new devs how to use WoW's development tools. That's unsustainable. Developers quit their jobs all the time, and if it takes years to prepare a new dev, you're eventually going to reach the point where it's no longer feasible to do so. So WoW needs to be replaced not because it's dying, but because the software is archaic and sooner or later they're going to have a dev shortage.
