If I know blizzard, they immidiately changed the ending as soon as it got leeked ^^ If this is what happens, someone tell me the name of the leaker so I can send him a basket of flowers and a big box of chocolates.More seriously, I still wonder if that could've been an alternative ending for WoL. The video was made in 2009, and someone said in an interview that Blizzard had considered making several possible endings at some point. My opinion on this potential ending notwithstanding, it would make more sense to have "the zerg must find their own way" at the end of WoL than at the end of HotS. | ||

Just let the story be an excuse to play through some missions and leave it at that It wasn't literaly the story itself, but the way it was told, the atmosphere and the interesting characters in it etc., (that's what people usually mean by story) that made it so good. I hated nearly all of the SC missions, they were incredibly boring, but the "story" was so interesting that I kept playing. Also, I first played it 3 years ago at 17, so I'm not wearing the nostalgia glasses when talking about the SC story. I didn't like the BW story very much though. SC2 Had great missions and gameplay for an RTS single player, no doubt, but the story was too bland. I need a story to keep me interested, to keep me coming back to the game. If gameplay is all it has going for it, I might as well play any other random game. Single Player in an RTS isn't even that good compared to other genres anyway, multiplayer is what they're made for. Only the zeratul missions in SC2 had an interesting story imo, even though the payoff wasn't all that great and the dark voice was a cheesy as fuck villain, the missions had great atmosphere, especially the fourth. As it stands right now, I'm not even batting an eye to the HotS campaign, unless I hear the story's good, wich has a one to a million chance of happening judging by this cinematic. | ||

But rendering a "possible" ending is a bit strange, so they chose this one already, else they just wouldn't render the clip(or start something in that way). | ||

It's like... welllll, you did this whole campaign WoL to turn Kerrigan back to human... and poof, that achievement is gone. Didn't happen. She's zerg again, because we can't think of anything else. Please. That's not the bold storytelling of the original series. | ||

The idea behind zerg seesm to be the same.. without any overmind, and with a clean kerrigan, zergs would go wild. Still, i don't like the idea at all. ![]() Anyway, the only thing i want off the HotS campaign, is some news about Duran. | ||

As a protoss player I'm very interesting in seeing what Legacy of the Void will bring. Maybe a prequel kind of thing, considering I'm still getting a feeling that HotS will be the end of the WoL storyline. God I hope so... Maybe the production company was like "wtf this is so horrible, let's leak it and pray they just do it again". Even if it adds 6 months onto the release, it was just so bad/cliche and I really hope they don't take it in that direction. | ||

I reckon it is so much better to have zerg+protss+terran going against this hybrid race (dark voice is the evil xel'naga?) | ||

I agree, I'd like to see the three races team up against a hybrid race. And then Zerg turns around and finishes the job, killing the Protoss for good. Controversial but it's what you all wanna see, you know you do. | ||

Well replace hybrids with UED and that's the zerg campaign of Brood War. Kerrigan has already shown that she can't be trusted, so even a teamup with her would be weird. Even more so if she betrays everyone at the end.Controversial but it's what you all wanna see, you know you do. | ||

as it seems the story does revolve around kerrigan retaking control but re-infesting herself seems to fucked up. i'm with the guy thinking this is an old and scrapped scene from WOL. also. it's kindof epic when you hear the overminds story in WOL but it still ruins zerg and thus sc lore for me.. yeah poor zerg, brave overmind, fuck you. they were the sickest aliens of all time and then actullay getting controlled by a vile semi-human, totally sick. loved it. now, meh. and the ending in this vid is just hilarious, the zerg are finally free!! like WHAT kindof means they will destroy eachother and everything closeby, doesnt it? it's what happened when the overmind died. they are bred to destroy and consume, they know nothing else. they're NOT ANIMALS. my five cents of whine | ||

My main problem with the WOL campaign is the rehashed Warcraft III elements. Hopefully I'm wrong and part 2 takes us by surprise, but right now all it needs is for Mengsk son to get infested by Zerg under control of the hybrids and you can basically call him Prince Arthas. | ||
