flippin' awesome!

 

[overclockingrocks]

That looks like so much fun. and I'm thinking since it's SC but like WoW you could have a persistant universe or planet with players of all 3 races working together with fellow players of that race to conquer the entire game world. Personally seems like an amazing mod and I might not play WoW but I could DEFINITELY see myself playing this it looks awesome even at this stage of development.

[noblerabbit]

[wolfram23]

Not necessarily.

Rather, Blizzard is just calling dibs on the name, regardless of whether a World of Starcraft game ever comes to fruition.

This does point to an office World of StarCraft release. IP law is pretty big on use it or lose it (that's how the term "netbook" became generic even though a company had a trademark on it. They weren't using it, so the courts took it away. Very basic explanation). Even though they hold the TM on StarCraft, they don't appear to care about it being used. They only cared about World of StarCraft specifically.

wooooooowwww. that a lot of work for a single person...

 

[borisof007]

Pretty talented individual, no wonder Riot Games contacted him. I wouldn't be surprised if a few others did too (Or why Blizzard didn't talk with him themselves? If he's that talented and loves Blizzard that much, maybe he should apply there?)

 

[ArmageddonRising]

Damn. Hes good. I'm honestly stunned. Hes an extremely talented individual.

I would appreciate if an admin fixed the little typo in the article. The author is saying that Activision asked to have the videos removed, when it was blizzard. Don't know what he was thinking.

Activision owns Blizzard...

Here's his forum: http://worldofstarcraft.proboards.com/index.cgi

He has like 2-3 people helping him but the fact that he's the master mind behind this incredible mod.

 

[Travis Beane]

I LoL at anyone who takes League of Legends seriously.

Rather unfortunately. Not a single of the original devs form Diablo are working on Diablo 3, assuming I remember correctly.

Wonderful modding skills, I wish the best of luck to them.

 

[eddieroolz]

Hopefully it will get him somewhere.

This is great to here, I know Ryan and he is a great guy. He is a marine and has done his duty serving his country that way and if he is successful with this project he will be serving this country in another great way!
