Starcraft just posted on Twitter the remastered protoss victory screen:

https://twitter.com/StarCraft
[image loading]

What do you guys think?
+ Show Spoiler +
I honestly don't know what to feel, but it doesn't look like the original at all. It looks just like a zealot from SC2 (Which seems like its a trend they're going for the remastered art style).
I'm not gonna comment on the pose, but the color scheme, super high tech suit, Starcraft 2 generic zealot face, and less bulky armor, it just doesn't feel right to me.


Feel free to post your opinion below.

It's fine.

Blizzard could repackage and sell the original game as-is and people would still find ways to complain that it's not as good as the original.

they seem to just be making everything shiny, which, is rather odd considering bw is so dark

This.

But this is somehow a trend everywhere in gaming. Everything looks so shiny and "plasticky" these days. And because of this, really unrealistic in my eyes.

I was happy that they managed to restrain themselves from Playskoolifying the Command Center in the Terran screen posted a few days ago, but I guess they could only keep it up for so long.

Oh well. These graphics are cool and all, but they're way way less important than what appears in-game. And honestly Protoss Victory was probably the least interesting of the victory/defeat screens.

i dont like it that much because of the spirit of the victorious P that emerges from the pose he makes^^ it looks impetuous rather than wise, showing off instead of calm, smtg like that ;; the face is more human like, so is the pose a bit, reminds of sc2 where P are more human like and seem less wise
but at the same time, i dont rly want to criticize that much, its nice that there is a remaster, i can always just use old version to play if I like the visuals better.. (will be able to play on ladder with original version yes?). Also it doesnt look that bad, just not the spirit of the P that i am used to or imagine or see from original pictures. At the same time its pretty good. What can I say lawl

I think if you look at them in relation to the time gap, the original being made in 1998 and the new one in 2017, then the original is much much better. But in this day n age for modernizing purposes, the new one is better.

Yeah, don't even play protoss so I shouldn't care too much but I don't like it at all for reasons already cited in this thread. Borrowing too much stylistic/design elements from Sc2 ( shape of face, eye colour, too shiny, too plastic-like).

That Zealot is BALLER as hell. YESSSsss it's happening!

EDIT : A Zealot is a Zealot, this has nothing to do with SC2... people are being so critical. This picture looks really badass, sure it could be better but umm... after about 20 years, this is badass.

This is protoss stuff, i have no feelings.

As a zerg player, if you dont like this new victory screen, i promise you, you will not see it often.


The overall quality of the screen is better, though the style looks more SC2 ish.




*actual promise is not real, mostly for the joke. unfortunately.

really like the psi blade. But the rest is kinda shiny. Psi blade reminds me of this old really sick image of a dark templar from the Prima Strategy Guide. Let me try to find it... YES found it
