One time I managed to fool one of my gf's into playing it (she was really into sci-fi and gaming too). Anyway, she asks me to tell her stories all the time, so one day I decided to improvise the single player campaign from Brood War. She got a real kick out of it and then I told her, well.. you can actually play it. Her eyes lit up. It was a bumpy ride considering she's never played a RTS in her life. I thought it was cute. :> | ||

Conceptually I got in to SC for very similar reasons, when I was 10-11 my stepdad introduced me to the story and I loved the Zerg and it kinda stuck with me when I grew up. The only reason I bought SC2 on release was because I saw it and wanted to see more Zerg and the story. Looking for help on the missions I found this site and enjoyed watching the streams/tournaments and gradually got in to playing myself and this is the only RTS I've ever played (generally I prefer RPG's). | ||

As for getting more girls to play and all, its something they have to have an interest in before I think. Not Starcraft specifically, but gaming. If they don't game at all or don't even like using computers for something other than Facebook, good luck getting them to play SC2 or BW lol | ||

edit: As for how I started with Star Craft(BW), I watched my bro playing it and immediately loved the goons and the funny sounds protoss units make. I constantly annoyed him as a young 4 year old by making him click on the probes and other units again and again until they finished their round, then I would ask for what building made the sound I just heard(Forge sound is so awesome :3) and he would say "what?" thinking it was an attack he missed ^^. One time I even saw him get attacked on a map he made by the computers trying to do a 1v3 computers on it PvPPP. It was actually balanced from what I remember seeing. Even though he sucked I just loved the game and when I got into it and we played a LAN game I trumped him in my first game. Why? I was reading the recommended threads here in the BW Strategy section for years lol. He face palmed shortly after I said gg. | ||

Oh edit: Why I liked it better pretty much had to do with the way he had me play it. The first person who had me play SC was very impatient, and constantly yelling what buttons I had to press. And then when some marines came up to my base he pretty much started to play the game for me because I was like "aaah what do I do what do I doooo? D: " My ex just pretty much let me do things by myself, and gave me advice. He wasn't stressing over whether I would lose the game or not, he just let me figure things out and told me a little bit of things I could do. I managed to beat the more difficult levels of a.i. pretty fast, within an hour or so ^^ I was quite happy because I never really played games like SC before, and he was proud of course :p | ||
