A good start would be not making threads like this...... The SC1 scene is/was nowhere near as perfect as you remember it, especially if you consider what public custom games looked.

And if it is any better, then that's likely because the game is 12 years old and you tend to grow up a bit in that time.

Well tbh SC1 scene wasn't perfect as well, not with all those "elitists" and "wannabe elitists". Will be cool to see how this fusion of different gamers will go for SC2.

The difference in a 1v1 game community and a team game community has been mentioned and it's one of the biggest reasons behind bad mannerism in game and in discussions of it.

One other point which I find quite significant for Teamliquid and starcraft overall is the age of the game and the age of the gamers. Afaik the average age here on TL is around 19-22 and it seems to stay around there. Not too many 14 year old players start playing a game they and their "gaming culture" find old and perhaps ugly. With the exception of players like Kolll and Mana, who ended up playing starcraft through the temptation of learning the most complex Rts ever.

There's a genuine challenge in choosing the most difficult of strategical games and not the easier ones. I think we can find a common motivation among the Starcraft players here. The quest for the deepest and most difficult challenge. Anything else might feel like cheating yourself and choosing the easy way out and not the most rewarding one.

I hope this didn't get to messy and perhaps some of u can relate to this.
I don't want to say that wc3 or any other rts is a bad game. It's all relative and up to the player do decide. But one thing that is quite clear is, that to become the best starcraft player in the world would take u a lot more time than any other rts game.

p.s Welcome to TL, let your lurking experience begin!
Not my chair. Not my problem. That's what I say
