Hi since a lot of people here take my words on stream far too seriously I'd like to say that there are many things about BW I do not like, however it was still a great game in its time but I definitely prefer SC2 more.
I do not act professional on my stream so please do not delude yourselves into thinking off-hand comments are my final opinion on certain matters either. The Remaster is amazing and all the fun parts of the game are still there better than ever, however yeah there's a lot of stuff like the awful pathing etc that will not only keep me but many others from committing to it long-term.
Edit: I would also like to add that I have watched the more recent BW stuff that is on at watchable hours, and I look forward to following whatever scene pops up with Remaster's release. But yeah it's an ancient game and I have too much going on in my life to want to try learning something that might be dead when the hype after a month or two ends.

It's an opinion so salty designed to make you feel bad about liking remastered at the same time sliding in how he likes sc2 more just to twist the knife a little. I guess he wasted years of his life playing a dead game like sc2.

When has broodwar ever been dead?
Are you ok?
I think he means the foreign scene. The foreign BW scene has been pretty non existent. I don't see the foreign scene coming back for long (I would like to be wrong on this). The korean scene though is hopefully going to grow from this and hopefully get some new blood in there!

Oh I was talking about on Twitch in the streaming sense, there's no value in just streaming Broodwar as a normal person imo

And this is a fair analysis. It's okay to recognize the reality that BW:R is not long term entertainment for most people, watching or playing. It just feels different because everyone here plays bw
just checked starcraft.com and there is an update set for today "Spotlight: Pre-Purchase Rewards" and would be stupid if we get the nexus/cc/hatch skin in old graphics, maybe we can have beta access for remastered today, and maybe not and there's only more images of the skins... =/

"Don't take me seriously, but I stand by what I said, and you are all wrong."
I can see why people are annoyed by you. It's like a CombatEx justification/apology.

There's no value in streaming anything as a "normal person" other than self enjoyment.
Watching broodwar for the foreign scene is like watching baseball for little league.

I mean nathanias has to think about value given that he apparently has barely anything else going on except for a dying game. That must suck hard
I don't get why people have the need to bash the game. It's passive aggressive insults.
If you don't like the BW scene then just don't roam the BW section of the forums or play the game at all for that matter.
It's so ridiculous seeing the same people bashing the game, playing the game they are bashing lolz. Starcraft/BW has always been fun and will always be fun because of the balance. It's near perfection.
It's almost like the sc2 players are angry at the fact that BW is taking away some of their scene because of the remake.
Some players dislike BW, others SC2. Deal with it and move on. If you don't like BW then continue to not like it and play the game you do. No need to be a downer for the people who are excited about the remake.
I sware, every time i come to these forums theres always some grudgy old fella trying to ruin the fun for the rest of us.
SC:R looks amazing. I can't even comprehend how anybody can talk badly about it. The only people i see complaining is sc2 hard core fans which doesn't make much sense since you aren't going to be playing the game anyways.
Judging by the amount of viewers big streamers like flash and bisu get from afreeca, I can't say I am that confident in SC:R getting a lot of new people into it. But I would like to be proven wrong. 30min watching Artosis playing it is enough to remind me why I would prefer not to play the MP part of it. But with the new ob UI and graphic update I am looking forward to some tournament streams, preferably with good English casting. As for the game itself, I would probably pick it up later when it is out just to enjoy the campaign again and maybe some custom game like BGH.

We wouldn't expect someone like you to understand what makes broodwar as timeless as chess nor would we expect you to have the tenacity to tame a beast like bw. We don't need you or your negative input here.

Here, in this thread, we have much bashing of SC2 and no bashing of BW. Actually it is understandable. SC2 guys lost their hopes that the hard-headed BW guys will join their community long time ago, so they rarely talk in BW forum. Even guys who like both games dont believe that the most hardcore BW fanboys are possible to convert.
Some milenials who are still angry of Koreans prefering obviously superior RTS game also are minority here and shits more on Twitch chat. Let it be, actually I love their anger ^^ I think that even r/Starcraft no longer try to "educate" us about how "outdated" our game is, as they know how it ends.
Edit: also if I was SC2 fan, I would be more concerned about SC2 survival than BW bashing, as their own game is becoming niche and outdated too ^^ + Show Spoiler +
actually SC2 was outdated game even in 2011, but heck, try to tell them that SC2 graphics was not even that good back than

I swear I see exactly the same attitude towards SC2 from this forum. Constant passive aggressive insults towards SC2 (and directly/indirectly me as a fan), how superior BW is with ironic ^^ and emotes meaning I must be inferior too since I got into an inferior game is what I read for years. You all get every bad word about BW personal too and need to retaliate how shit SC2 is, how the hype died out, how the playerbase shrunk, how dem millenials can never see true beauty, don't you? No wonder you can develop some bitterness towards BW fanbase, especially here on TL. I'm really glad that some people here don't define the game for me.

I played SC2 since beta so I guess it makes me a hardcore fan, I got internet at home too late to get into 1v1 BW back in the day but played few games of it once in a while, am I allowed to play your remaster?
Some people just need to stop, imagine there are people that like both but one of those slightly more.
EPT
