a lot of hatred here towards the story but I for one loved both the warcraft / WoW storyline and the sc--->bw.-->sc2 and Im sure Im going to love hots as well.

There are some games with decent storylines. Planescape Torment had one, for example.


Entire Legacy of Kain series - another one.
Wish they would bring back the creative team that wrote the dialogs of Raziel and Kain for some games. Back then it was clearly visible that the script was written by someone who majored in English.

Oh, how I wish that Blizzard would hire that kind of writers. Not "Fix my damn jukebox" oneliners ones.


Awaken my child and embrace the glory that is your birthright.

I still remember that line despite playing the game ~15 years ago. What I wouldn't give to have it back.

Every new Blizzard cinematic is better than previous.

And now this...
I have no words...
TvZ rough battle, classic in itself, and all of this is a dream of a girl... this is absolutely crazy...

Actually the way the battle is handled seems rather stupid - especially the viking: "ooh, that guy just ignored several tank shots and stomped the machine; I better land down to fight it with my low calliber machine guns" wtf o_O

Also - where are Thors. I want to see Thors because Tanks/Ultralisk scale is waaay different than in the game (unless these were Omegalisks which I seriously doubt).


Would have loved to see Odin MK2 there somewhere. But I guess then the Terran would have won. As for the Viking Pilot. The Mutas are after me ... out of rockets, the guys at the Statue need more time. Just need to hit the ultras weak spot and they will have to get past this meatball first ...
Also maybe a pun on Wings, as I belief many Terrans fighting the Broodlord Ultra switch decided they have no choice but to land them. I actually wish they would allow something like a patrol move land, where it lands still moving at ground walk speed, while in transformation haha.

Zerg is so mannered ^_^ he doesn't have infestors or brood lords. Or his opponent is a huge noob that lands vikings against ultras so he decided to give him a chance.

I hope the Story will play out different that we think it will/Blizz wants us to think it will.
Like Mengsk is the main goal... maybe... something greater will happen

I think ling/bane/ultra is actually pretty strong in hots, though. Of course, they're missing vipers.
You know what unit really has balance problems? Colossi. Why, they look like they could be blown over in a stiff wind!

Will not buy. Things take a LONG time to be ready for them... soon. Also the promises they gave us in the early days of WoL are coming true, but it took long time, It shows weak caring for the players that play their games. I give up at least at the SC2 part. Waiting for other games if possible... soon. [ I have played Blizzard games for 10 years. I've had enough]
I have lost my phone number, can I have yours?

Preview video alone was enough to get me excited about the game, but the whole article took it to another level! Thanks for the writeup.

Have to agree with this. Was so polished I could easily watch a movie

About the landed viking.

▶ It was a dream
▶ The current threat was on ground, with the planet overrun the viking would be done for anyway
▶ The video actually shows how weak a landed viking is, satirically commenting on the power of landed vikings vs ultras.
You don't choose to play zerg. The zerg choose you.
