Quote:Contrary to the world-wide job market tendencies, the Blizzard upper ones have to struggle with a tremendous personnel decrease. However, not because one has cancelled job contracts, but because many top developers have voluntarily turned their back upon the game company.
According to a report of the U.S. magazine "Hollywood Reporter", Blizzard saw themselves obliged now to cancel a not yet announced project. According to unconfirmed news, the "WarCraft" developers have been working on two secret projects so far.
Blizzard didn't feel obliged so far to make a concrete statement or at least a dementi. Allegedly, there are "no significant delays" or "long-term negative consequences" for future projects - whatever that may mean.
