It is a romantic story.. I don't even know what the word saga means.
I do have an idea, but my mind retreats to the Sega console.

The starcraft campaign story.

but there is something amiss.. that being, how everything here did eventuate.
And people are causing strife and protesting ( or resisting ) against the way things have turned out?

the end of the Legacy of the Void..
If I understand it right, Kerrigan becomes some apotheosis in flame and Jim Raynor in his desperation is immolated in his need to have her.

Make no mistake, my good friends whom have invested their patience & time to spectate these words here..

I am not mocking the concept, and I don't want to instill doubt or derisive scorn to the campaign and story of Sc II.

I only seek to exemplify the point, as an example served to reveal that the two most interesting characters have been almost removed from the story.

Now in this age and time, is art & culture something we can make the StarCraft II story correlate to?
Are these characters here in this wonderful saga equal to OTHER characters which most people thing of arts & culture?

Is it the end that they have been destroyed and reduced to flame and dust?

What if all those who protest against LOTV, are unknowingly expressing their distaste in the
very depressing end of the story.

I'm talking about those who put forth their notion that the game is umbalanced.. concerning Multiplayer matchup.

Now what did blizzard do if they might have, maybe neutralized the StarCraft II story..
they maybe thought that expected technology would not have been able to replace the current intensity and galvanized interest of StarCraft II.
thinking the concept in itself would be dated.

But they affectively managed to release Diablo III?
Even though they managed to replace the character whom had been invoked with the unholy essence of diablo..
that being the lonesome warrior, with King leroics other son?

Man I dropped the campaign mid way through HotS. The missions weren't great and tended to drag on. The story was building on all the worst parts. I checked out.

I didn't check back in for LotV and it remains untouched. I don't know what the end of the story is beyond the mocking I've seen. I'm just here for multiplayer. The two have always been divided and equating multiplayer balance to single player story doesn't add up.

It is difficult for me to express in writing just how much I hate the story to of SC2, from Wings to Legacy I played it all (I like the mission design) and it is utter and complete garbage. I still go back and play some of the mission every now and them, but I always skip the cutscenes.

The worst thing about it is that I know it is not possible to make a story that bland accidentally, it was deliberately made that bad, which is a decision I just cannot justify.

Swing away sOs, swing away.
