maybe. it kinda depends on how the story develops. from in utter darkness, it looks like even if kerrigan is the key to stopping the hybrids, the protoss are still the front line. but things are gonna be really dodgy after kerrigan is brought back to civilization. the terrans AND the protoss will be out for her head, and for all we know the zerg will be feral and out of control at the start of HotS. it'll be interesting for sure but i guess only time will tell if those developments turn out to be as satisfying as they have the potential to be.

What I'm thinking for the story is that the Protoss kidnap now not-infested Kerrigan and plan to sacrifice her in a Satanic ritual to ward off the Xel'Naga. Unfortunately, Kerrigan wasn't a virgin, so the sacrifice doesn't really work and Kerrigan get's some demon powers. She's pissed at the Zerg for infesting her, so she uses her demon powers to grow giant wings and tries to ride a brood lord into Char to kill a cerebrate. Unfortunately, she doesn't think to bring a parachute, so when she tries to dismount the brood lord and her wings don't work because char is too hot, she breaks her legs on the ground. Now the Zerg think they can try infesting her again, and get a Demon-Eagle-Queen of Blades. At this point, Raynor get pissed that Kerrigan is missing so he tries to find the Protoss to figure out what they did with her. He get's in contact with Selednis, who tells him about the ritual and that the Zerg are trying to infest her again. So the Protoss and Terran team up, but Zeratul gets jeallous of how much time Raynor is spending with Selednis, so he plants a real virgin in the Hyperion's core. When the ship moves again, that virgin is sacrificed, so Satan gets some power. This is basically where the story falls apart, but I think that something with the Xel'Naga will happen.

That's what I think. Anyone care to chime in?

You are oversimplifying it with that horrible example.


There's a difference between blaming someone for having their mental defect and still holding them accountable for their actions. Would anyone in their right mind blame Kerrigan for being infested? Obviously not. It's not like she had a choice, but you're an idiot if you don't hold her accountable for her actions. "I'm infested!" or "I'm crazy!" or "I'm drunk!" or "I'm -insert pathetic excuse to dodge personal responsibility here-!" isn't an excuse to be an idiot.

Yo Billy,

Early on in SC2 Kerrigan sicks the Zerg on ALL the Terran worlds, killing 8 BILLION PEOPLE. The 4 years of dormancy was to prepare for this invasion. If you look at this statistically, Kerrigan is 1333% more evil than Hitler.

There MAY be some conflict going on within Kerrigan, but the side that is the Queen Bitch of the Universe is definitely evil.

Who said she was unaccountable? You just made a completely random assumption based on a comparison to mentally unstable people.

This talk of video game morality is getting kind of boring to be honest.

plus the whole 'kerrigan is the key to saving us all' thing in sc2 is not necessarily mutually exclusive with her being evil, but since she's been de-infested or whatever i guess they're gonna take that route from now on.


If the whole 'kerrigan as the chosen one" thing is derailed then that might make for an interesting story. Would also give Tassadar an opportunity to make the most of his return.

Honestly, I think that there is a good chance that Kerrigan won't be the savior. If she was, then wouldn't it make the most sense for the zerg expansion to come last?



she's just going to help out with the fight against the hybrid
I don't think I've ever wished my opponent good luck prior to a game. When I play, I play to win. I hope every opponent I ever have is cursed with fucking terrible luck. I hope they're stuck playing underneath a stepladder with a black cat in attendance a

I think there was some other motive for kerrigan's acts. I dont know if it's a good or bad one, but obviously she didn't want the terrans or protoss to interfere. Im not sure there would have been much of a choice for her to be any different even if she hadn't lost her humanity, i don't think the galaxy would have been able to stand coexisting with the zerg after everything they'd done. if she still had a human mind she'd probably still have no choice.

we'll find out in HotS. personally i think kerrigan is gonna wake up and try to explain to jim why it was so important that she remained infested, sneak off to a zerg world to be re-infested (will be under nobody's control now, so that hybrid has the chance to take it methinks), or gaining some way to control the zerg whilst she's still human. lets face it, she's not going to do nothing, and being leader of the swarm is what kerrigan does best.
Never too late to stand your ground.

Kerrigan being infested from the overmind when Kerrigan was abandoned ignited her anger against Terran in general. Mengsk screw her over and if you were in Kerrigan's postion you would think Jim Raynor screw her over as well. Given the circumstances.
I believe the Overmind was able to use that anger to make her as a puppet and control her.

After she turned back, she seemed like her normal self and looked very innocent

I don't think she was herself at all as infested.

What is this supposed to mean and what should have been done differently? I see people like you everywhere, you know. I've read people who seriously try to convince others the The Dark Knight was one of the worst batman movies ever, and that the The Two Towers and The Empire Strikes back are both terrible movies. And there would still be people like you even if Blizzard got everything perfect. What do you want them to do, consult you directly and seek your approval on every step of the story process?

You just lost every possible shred of credibility you could have by mentioning things like The Dark Knight, The Two Towers, and The Empire Strikes Back while trying to defend the story of WoL.

Nah that's not it. Just that there are always people who are going to whine and hate.

And in case you haven't notice I haven't been denying the faults of WoL, but not meeting your personal expectations doesn't make it one of the worst games of the decade And complaining that the new villain is shit when there are still anouther 60 or so missions of SCII to build the character doesn't do you any credit either, especially not when the new villain barely had a part in Wings of Liberty.

It's pointless because the story is now only what is convenient for the (talentless, hack) writer.

Like in WoW, characters may come back from the dead for no reason, forget stuff they did in the past, act out of character only so that the plot goes on, etc.

Really, what's the point of discussing? there really is no character here anymore, just a stand-in carboard-cutout-like graphic and voice with a name that acts out the writer's fanfic-like sorry excuse for a story.

The end.
