EPTThe OP is probably right, but I bet those casual players will swing from D3 to HotS once it comes out.... then the D3 expansion will come out....

Yeah you guys have both said what I meant to say, in much more clear and concise terms. Basically, TL.net is a baller Sc2 forum and so most poeple here will probably answer the way they answer. | ||

D3 will be awesome. It's still looks just like d2, however, I'll still play it eventually. With HoTS coming out soon as well I'll be buying it before d3, tight money situation and all. I'm sure a lot of people will get d3 and play it. But if it's anything like d2 I feel like it'll lose it's enjoyment and people will come back eventually. Just as a side note: I don't think WoW has 14million. iirc, it lost something like a million sub's over the past 3 quarters. It's down to 10-11 million. Sc2 probably has impacted that some. I definitely quit wow for sc2. | ||

It doesnt matter if you miss out on practice because the game will be totally different when I come back. I stopped playing for almost 6 months (maybe a handful of games) and I still keep a spot at mid masters. I'll still be on the same level and improve the same as others because the game is new to all when Im done with d3. That being said. Probably the best competition for SC2 will be immediately after release of d3 and that will be the best time to play. | ||

You don't rack up hundreds of posts on a game-of-the-month whim =P Plus D3 is an RPG. SC2 is an RTS. Completely different food groups. | ||

Did DeadSpace killed casual FIFA ? Did SC2 kill Casual WoW? They are not even the same genre. Casual players usually move on anyways at some point so you could probably post will X hyped new game will kill Casual SC2? The answer will probably be no, people who like to play RTSs (Casually or not) will probably keep on playing SC2 to the extent they want. | ||

Because D3 doesn't seem like all that much of an improvement from D2, except graphics and maybe the online experience. If D3 wasn't riding off of the success of its predecessor, would it really be that intriguing compared to all the stuff coming out? | ||
