Blizzard Entertainment Interview

The editors at gamesindustry.biz have interviewed Blizzard COO Paul Sams about World of Warcraft and MMOs in general. Talking about WAR, Sams reveals players are already starting to return to World of Warcraft from Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning.

Q: Did you notice a drop off in World of Warcraft users when Warhammer Online launched?

Paul Sams: Not significantly, we’ve certainly had some of that happen, which is the same thing we experienced with Age of Conan and each time an MMO has come out we’ve seen some amount of reduction of use. The good news is that we’ve seen a significant number of people, well over half, that cited Warhammer as their reason for leaving – they’ve already returned.
