Very good interviews! I agree with everything LZ, IdrA, Artosis, Machine and jinro say, although the opinions on balance were biased.

I read it all, and I agree with almost everything (except some of the conflicting balance issues, but they are still 90% right)

Great interviews and some really good quotes in there to remember

Obviously too many Z's interviewed. Tbh everything, where T is invovled is imba. Its just that the race didnt recieve any nerfs, just got buffed and buffed just because people were not winning with it. The problem wasnt the race itself, it was people who were playing it.

Intresting interviews and its always intresting to listen to the pro:s about their views of the game. As always with interpretations and opinions, they can't really be correct or incorrect, just well argumented for =).

One thing boggles me though, that you actually will switch over and play this game and give it a reputation that it honestly doesn't diserve. Good luck however with your gaming!

Its great to know that most of the top players and influential players of the world are carrying the majority of views! We all want to have a great game at release Blizzard, hopefully you guys hear our call and work with us like you used to. We all love your games and are extremely loyal. Out of all the games I've beta tested I can safely say this is the most fun, greatest community, and BEST beta test I might ever have. It was a huge pleasure to be apart of this.

Overall gj to saracene :D.

Lot of good info...thanks for the interviews. I'm an American over here in South Korea (for 1 year) and quite excited for the release. I hope the momentum from beta carries over.

Anyone over here in SK and want to get together? Artosis? Idra?

Interesting take on the new bnet. I noticed the lack of chat channels and how annoying it was to get people together but I didn't really pay any attention to it because most of the time I was focused on just kind of learning the game. Now that it's been brought up though, I can see how much of an annoyance it could be.
What's that probe doing there? It's a scout. You mean one of those flying planes? No....

Blizzard needs to read this. How do we know if blizz reads this? If they acknowledged Husky's kitten video then this interview needs to become their bloody manifest.

Well said by all players, Blizzard actually needs to read this and f*(&*&*&*&* implent some of it, how can they say, "do they really want chat channels" has the world gone mad?!

Regarding question:

"With an easily accessible match history, build order viewer, and publicly released reps, Blizzard seems to want to “level the playing field” for newer aspiring players. What kind of an impact do you feel this will have?"

I disagree with each and every one of the interviewee's answers. This discourages "cheese" strats and encourages overall perfect play. Think of professional sports. Top teams trade tapes, and dedicate teams of analysts to watch their opponents. Being prepared for an opposing style encourages a better all around game.

Really great read. I enjoyed getting a view from the pro GameR Side of things.

This Game is going to be insane. Think back on SC1 after its release and on the problematic issues it had with online play. Now look at Where SC2 is pre-launch. SC2 is far ahead of its predecessor. Granted, the online gaming scene is much different from back then, but the potential here is Just as high as in SC1. I can't imagine what will emerge with the releases of the two "expansions" (essentially they're Just part 2 & 3). I am very excited.
