If they can improve on their RTSs as much as Blizzard did, then YUS!

I wonder if it's even AoE at all....?
There's a WoW expansion and I bet you anything there'll be a WoW 2.
But yeah, Ensemble are decent, so could be good.
I'm really not keen on the idea of a console MMORPG, simply because you CANNOT have the same depth in terms of controls.

Well, if they can pull it off, an AOE MMORPG would be fantastic...I can't wait.

Neither did Westwood games, until they tried to do something they had never done before, namely a FPS (Renegade) inhouse and didn't go the third party route ala Lucasarts and Raven.
Blizzard got away with it however.
*Shrug* not saying it's going to be crap, just pointing out there's always the possibility.

A WoW expansion would be great. Though, I still haven't been to half the places yet.

Hmmm, I'd reserve judgement until the product is completed. MMORPG's are the biggest growth area in the business, and everyone want a piece of the money making press.

I realise they can't make a game out of all their single player campaigns. Because 95% of it would be set in the wrong time period.
I'm sure they'll do something amazing though.

Supposedly the average time for a Blizzard product, from start to finish is 5 years.
People still play "Dark Age Of Camelot"

AOE won't work the same as Warcraft had a single long story that was all depicted in the world you play in World of Warcraft.
