My Life w/ StarCraft 2 - Day 21 - Developers

DJWilma Canada740 Posts August 09 2011 14:04 GMT #1 This is a strange blog entry for me today, mainly because I want to dedicate it to those who built SC2. Many of us gamers look at a game, and just begin to point out everything wrong with it. Balance issues, maps suck, want more blah blah blah. In fact we complain a lot, but for once being on the other side, I can truly appreciate the work that goes into a game like StarCraft 2. I have spend the last 5 days in Toronto doing some quick contracting work for my brothers Studio because they needed a functioning demo of their game (that they are releasing early 2012). We have done non-stop work, minus the odd cat nap every 18 hours. So much work we put into it, to get it running. These days have felt like they lasted over 2 weeks due to the fact I have done nothing but this. I honestly can't remember the first tasks they gave me to do, when I arrived here 5 days ago. Normally I only like talking about SC2 in this blog of mine, but I figured you all should just take some time out of your laddering sessions to really enjoy all the hard work that so many individuals put into making the E-Sports Monster that is StarCraft 2. I talk more about this kinda stuff on my other blog (http://www.djwilma.blogspot.com) and am going to do my best to keep this blog entirely devoted to SC2. Don't forget to catch me casting the Baller Brawler Tournement this Wednesday starting at 8 PM EST, and you can still sign up for it on z33k.com, its a 25$ weekly prize pool, and always a great showing of Plat-Diamond Players. :D Question of the post: Should I try and get back into competitive play for SC2 ladder 3, or should I try and devote more time to my casting and stream?
