Wouldn't that be fucking awesome :D Well if she can't, I guess that's too bad. | ||

And I'm pretty sure she'll still be able to control the zerg. After all, it was mainly the psi inhibitor keeping her from reaching her potential in the first place; now that she's had that experience I, for one, believe she will still be the guiding force behind the Zerg. It's just that, now, as Zeratul foretold, instead of trying to kill everyone with the Zerg she will use them to battle the Hybrids. And bring down that big ol meanie Arcturus in the mix, too, I should think.  | ||

Having that said WoL, is just a build up for the inevitable clash of all races against Xel'Naga. The only question to answer left is which from the main characters are going to die in the process. Following again the simple blizzard/ hollywood logic, Kerrygan is going to die for retribution in the second or the third expansion. Jim will kill Mynsk but will eventually die in the process as well, because he doesnt belong to the "new world". The new world belongs to Matt, his captain. And while blizzard may decide to do the twilight and allow Kerrygan and Jim not to die and live happy together for the rest of their days, the one that is completely certain to die is Zeratul. Imo he will be the one to sacrifice himself in the climax of the plot. Ofc, Blizzard have a lot of room for character development outside the "big 3". The things I'm looking forward to in the story are Duran and the new protoss characters | ||

They got progressively bigger as i got the tech in levels but ....nothing happened 0_0? The idea was they got progressively bigger. The toss one becomes powerful enough to actually power your ship, Donny mentions. The zerg one just becomes very big and mean. But yeah, no cinematic for full growth or anything. I did like the captions as they progressed in growth. | ||

OMG I'm glad I wasn't the only one who noticed the Mass Effect/SC2 storyline similarities. Xel Naga/Reapers - Manipulates sentient races over eons in an effort to reproduce in the most weird, genocidal and complicated manner possible. Geth/Zerg - Previous enemy who really aren't evil, just manipulated and misunderstood. Quite possibly going to be an ally in future installments. Aaaannndddd numerous other little things. | ||

I chose to side with sexy Nova and ended up killing Tosh. Did anyone choose Tosh? If so, did anything cool happen later? Who did you guys choose? | ||

I went with Tosh just because he's badass and I didn't like that the ghosts (seemingly) didn't have EMP. Was I wrong on that? I looked at the special abilities and it wasn't there. Anyway - I went with Tosh and I liked his mission, it was very quick, but quite fun. Then ironically I never used a spectre once. GG to that. | ||

As far as the story goes, I loved it, although I wasn't really a huge fan of the character Tosh, or the doctor. I also disliked Tychus' demeanor in terms of being EXTREMELY loyal and EXTREMELY unloyal 2 seconds later. I would have rather seen Tosh be replaced with Nova, and the whole love-story bit with the doctor not exist. Was I the only one who was like: "Who is this bish, Kerrigan is Raynor's woman step off." Oh well, minor complaints. I loved it overall. | ||

Now insert names for for each race, say the first two are orc and human (terran and zerg) and the 3rd are the nightelves (the protoss). There comes but a 4th race, much more powerful than the other 3 with the strange desire to destroy the world (Undead/Demon Legions and the Xel'Naga). The hollywood moral of the story is the 3 races to unite their efforts against the invaders and to put their conflicts aside. Having that said WoL, is just a build up for the inevitable clash of all races against Xel'Naga. The only question to answer left is which from the main characters are going to die in the process.

The things I'm looking forward to in the story are Duran and the new protoss characters That's what I've been suspecting. If that's the direction they take it in I'll be extremely disappointed. Starcraft's appeal was that each race had compelling reasons for their actions wanted just to ensure the well-being of their species. Even when the threat of the zerg invasion became clear, the protoss and terran didn't simply unite to defeat their common foe. There was perpetual tension and distrust, between the races and among the races. When the UED came everyone did kinda just gang up on them, but there was still uncertainty, betrayal, and intrigue in the aftermath. Just having everyone team up to beat the badguys would be so cliche and boring, I sincerely hope that doesn't happen. | ||

edit: it's not like this is the first time they've done this, btw, same idea for arthas' campaigns in War3 I kind of find the ending ending wierd. Why would she lose all the cladding on her body but not the wierd bone dreadlocks? I mean, ok, it makes for a cool character design for HoTS- human and cute with the crazy hair, but if everything else went, why not that? Personally, having her utterly bald and red-raw would have done a better job of conveying the mood, and worked with the burned planet as well. | ||
