EPTWings of Liberty just seems to set up the story. It told much more story than the Terran campaign of SC1 or BW, so it's fine by comparison.
I waited 12 yrs for Xel'naga.. - Page 3

Basically, the Xel'Naga are long lived but not immortal. They can't reproduce, either. When they near the end of their lives, they look for two races. They give one purity of form and another purity of essence. Eventually, these two races evolve and then sort of combine. That's how a new generation of Xel'Naga come into being. The protoss and zerg were meant to evolve together to become the new Xel'Naga. The hybrids are a forced attempt at creating a zerg-protoss hybrid before they've evolved enough to be ready to become Xel'Naga. Their called a perversion of that natural cycle. | ||

I imagined what the super advanced race Xel'naga were like, the race omnipotent enough to create Zerg and Protoss from scratch. I knew Blizz would revisit SC universe for sure and anticipated what Xel'naga would be like. They're not conventionally advanced like Protoss. Xel'naga created them.. they must be spiritual or exist in some crazy energy form of sort. SC2 arrived.. we don't see Xel'naga at all. All we see is Protoss/Zerg hybrids. The only glimpse is the generic Protoss portrait representing Xel'naga as the Dark One. What a disappointment. there is definitely hinting that xel naga will come back in one of the expansions. blizzard wouldn't want to play all their trump cards in the first of the trilogy and have nothing left for the rest. | ||
