It's a hard game to gain more popularity.
But existing fans still like StarCraft 1.

To keep the viewers? Why is Calm so loud? I am aware of the misstatement of Cadenzie. But it is a problem with the pronunciation of Korea. It's an unavoidable problem. streaming themselves eating? -> I don't think it's a question I can answer. I'm sorry. | ||

Thank you. "Stork" was recently sued by someone else by his wife. However, he soon won the case and informed the viewers that there was no problem. He looked very happy. He has recently been doing well with his wife and one children. Of course, I continue to do broadcasting activities. Thanks | ||

This is because it is the game that best suits the sentiments of Koreans in my own personal opinion. StarCraft 1 is not going to go to hell in Korea. Better to replace Starcraft 1. If there is an RTS genre game that suits Korean tastes, the story may be different. But the reason why StarCraft 1 didn't go down in Korea. This is partly because, at least by Korean standards, there is no RTS game that is superior to StarCraft 1 and suitable for Korean tastes. Interesting response, thanks. If I may ask what are the Korean tastes and what kind of games suit that? | ||

You said that Korean children are not interested in Starcraft 1. My question is, has there been ANY noticeable amount of new Starcraft fans in Korea who started playing only in the recent years? It seems like Starcraft 1 is still being played a bit in the PC bangs. Or are most of those people old fans? | ||

Is ygosu just a general message board, or is it all about Starcraft? Liquipedia is great for some info but some of it is dated or unclear. I got a bunch of replays off bwreplays and it’s been immensely helpful in clarifying things I was trying to learn from liquipedia. | ||

A game that suits Korean tastes may or may not be all games. For example StarCraft 1 was successful, but Warcraft and StarCraft 2 were shunned. The League of Legend succeeded, but Dota was turned away. Fortnite is world famous, but not very famous in Korea. (even though there was a big ad) The overwatch succeeded, but the counterstrike was turned away. In Korea, however, a game similar to counterstrike called Sudden Attack is very popular and many people are playing. However, there have always been successful cases of games that were ignored. Warcraft is "Moon" Jang Jae-ho. StarCraft 2 is many gamers such as "Maru" , "Soo" , "Dary" , "TY". tekken is "knee," etc. And Dota2 is "MVP Phoenix" Team and Counterstrike's "MVP Project" team. In many fields, Korean players are proving their competitive edge enough. I think Games to suit Korean taste I think most games have a little luck. When the League of Legend became famous in Korea, It was when StarCraft 1 was losing its popularity. Overwatch has also become another option for gamers who have been playing both the League of Legend and Starcraft. | ||

Because when Korea's StarCraft professional league system was activated. They are 14 to 18 years old when they saw the professional league the hardest. They are probably forming an age group in their mid to late 20s by now. | ||

I got a bunch of replays off bwreplays and it’s been immensely helpful in clarifying things I was trying to learn from liquipedia. umm... I must say. No matter what Web site you go to in Korea, it will be hard for anyone to get a replay of a progamer. The reason is that they are very sensitive to replay. (Strategic exposure or consideration for the other party, etc.) Also, Ygosu is no longer a friendly site. There are still many good people. There are a lot of bad StarCraft 1 fans compared to the past. I don't think you'll be much of a help to get into the site. In fact, there are quite a few of the gamers and fans who don't use Ygosu. | ||
