I think a lot of hardcore RPGers are looking forward to this game because they view it as the more pure element of the fantasy genre. What I mean by saying this is that Blizzard has been essentially copying the Waehammer universe for years now, starting with Warcraft and continuing with Starcraft (Warhammer 40k). The difference is that Blizzard is just much at making the universe work for video games.

With Dawn of War doing so well I think a lot of people hope that Warhammer will finally take its place, and realize its potential, with the MMO as the premiere fantasy video game franchise.

Not for me, though. I was never a fan of straight up Warhammer... 40k though? I love it.
