  Dear All.

  As many of you are already aware, last night we have decided to pull the plug on

  StarCraft 2.

  In this letter, I’d like to share with you all exactly how and why this decisin was made.

  We are well aware that many of you will not take this decision lightly, especially

  considering the bitter aftertaste of StarCraft Ghost, and the disproportional resources

  dedicated to the WarCraft franchise.

  Prior to making this decision, I have personally sat down with Sales and Marketing, QA

  personnel, developers and artists, progamers and a few community managers. None have

  provided an answer which could support a different decision. Not a single person was

  able to justify StarCraft 2‘s existence.

  World of WarCraft is our 800 lb gorilla.

  No MMORPG, RTS or FPS game can leave anything more than a dent in Blizzard!s

  subscriber count. Every single person that reads this letter has a family that benefits from

  World of WarCraft’s existenc and its utter dominance as the most commercially

  successful game of all time.

  The only thing that can hurt World of WarCraft‘s subscriber base, is another Blizard

  game. We do not expect any other company in the world to be able to subtract as much as

  300,000 subscribers from WoW‘s numbers.

  How much will StarCraft 2’s release cost Blizzard Entertainment?

  The safest estimates are around 5% of World of WarCraft’s subscriber bas.

  500,000 users will leave World of Warcraft, taking $90,000,000 worth of yearly

  subscriber fees with them.

  Do we believe StarCraft 2 would have been successful? Yes.

  But only as long as we are looking at the small picture.

  My responsibilities towards Activision, Vivendi, shareholders and Blizzard‘s own

  employees and their families, prevented me from taking any other course.

  My door is always open.

  Best regards,

  Michael Morhaime

  President

  Blizzard Entertainment

“能够真正伤害WoW的,只可能是另一个暴雪的游戏。我们从不相信世界上还存在着另一个公司拥有向我们挑战的实力。”
這話很有牛B啊。不過BLZ有牛B的資本。不像某些老總。張口就給WOW打60分。還號稱自己的網游90分。。我真懷疑他有認真看過自己制造的那狗屁網游沒有。
