I just don't think about it all the time like I did w/ BW. That and there's a lack of flashy distinct plays imo. I can't explain it. I haven't watched a SC2 game in months. Personally I think the game needs to develop more, and BW players will help this immensely. You have to realise that SC1 pre-BW didn't have nearly the potential of BW. Sc2 is still very young, especially when compared to other games like Street Fighter. The plays will come with time, and I will be happy if most of BW switches over, because that should make it all the more interesting. | ||

They are two different skill sets to master and memorize, and now these pros can't just specialize in one of them Are we going to see BW pros suiciding mutas into marines in SC2 while accidentally mass-storming in BW? I don't know. Maybe the games are similar enough. Maybe it would be like switching between LoL and HoN. Can any players here that play two MOBA games at the same time talk about what it's like? You can make that argument. But all the signs leading up to this pointed to a switch over. We all knew blizzard was in talks with OGN/Kespa to facilitate the switch. At the end of the day AFIK, Blizzard could have pulled the plug on BW at anytime. They very well may have done that. | ||

I'm not talking about the switch itself - I'm not going to get into that argument (I like both games and I don't want to take sides). It's the stupid way they're doing it: "For the time being games will rotate every set but ace match is always BW." | ||

Either I'm missing something here or this is some serious desperation move. | ||

I mean the whole hobby is niche as it gets (watching progamers) but there is like zero interest in SC2 in most PCbangs or Korean gaming communities so who is the supposed audience of this switch? Either I'm missing something here or this is some serious desperation move. Sponsor money and foreigners, till it dries out and SC3 will come out. | ||

Like that wasn't the most anticipated game of all time for us. Derp. | ||

Wrong, which is why there was a legal battle between OGN, MBC, Kespa, and Blizzard. | ||

BW fans were hyped about the game before the first trailer even launched, most gave the game and chance and decided it wasn't for them. Personally, I played the hell out the beta and found it completely lacking the charm and excitment of BW, and therefore drop it completely. | ||

Child, you make my bone ache from this. Broodwar will never die as long as we are there to remember it. Starcraft 2 indeed has failed us, but better to see Jaedong playing with Broodlords than with some moba character. | ||

 I think SC2 is a worthy successor for BW. I love BW, but I think if we give more time to SC2 it will become very pleasing as well. Still, On April 16 2012 15:56 red4ce wrote: 50% BW + 50% SC2 = 100% bad games. I totally agree with this :/. | ||
