Viking in ground mode shooting at something....infested Kerrigan flies in and splits it in half
several other vikings and marines open fire, only for her to telekinetically launch them into the air, where they explode
Someone is in his office and opens a case with a single cigar
Kerrigan claws her way into the office and finds Mengsk smoking, who says he has been waiting. Kerrigan says she is surprised he didn't try to escape.
Mengsk says she has misunderstood things and takes out a remote, which activates some sort of implant in her brain which sends her into writhing agony. A flashback of Kerrigan naked in a tank where the implant is put into place.
Mengsk asks if she really thought he would let an animal like her close to him without some form of protection.
He then moves to finish her, but Rayor shows up in full marine armor and throws Mengsk across the room, breaking the remote. Mentions he thought Kerrigan could use some backup
She pins Mengsk to the wall, claiming he turned everyone into monsters Mengsk tells her to just get her vengence over with and then choke on the ashes Kerrigan says it is not vengence, but justice...screen whites out
Kerrigan is overlooking the city as Rayor arrives and asks what next Kerrigan says she will leave humanity to its fate. The zerg are free now, even from her. So whether they bring life, or destroy worlds she will help them find the answers. out there among the stars
As she says this a massive flock of mutalisks is flying into the sky towards some kind of glowing thing in the sky (not sure if its a portal or just clouds made red by the setting sun)
I admit this is what video is about. Lordmordor didn't miss anything.
I followed a chain of like 4 links to get here, seriously.
I'm going to sum up my thoughts on this by quoting a bnet poster:
Oh dear god this is like watching the leaked version of Wolverine: Origins all over again.
I didn't think it would be possible to outdo the high-grade fertilizer that was WoL, but as we have just been shown, you just can't underestimate Blizzard.
As a side note, I am now more pessimistic about D3 than I have ever been.

Bleh just feels like Blizzard has had a drop in quality since WoW's TBC. I'm skeptical about D3 too. I'm a SP kinda guy, not so much MP....so SC2 hasn't satisfied me in that department ;(. Looks like we'll get the same generic storyline come HoTS too.
I mean I guess I could feel guilty making fun of what is obviously an early concept and run through, but then I remember the ending of the WoL campaign.
"Lets take this wicked female villian who has slaughtered countless lives ruthlessly and turn her back into a helpless human to be carried off in the arms of Raynor. Oh yeah and lets make her naked.... obviously." Hormonal nerd fantasies GOGOGO!

The cliches are suffocating This is justice?? Really? Might have to review my D3 plans.
unless Kerrigan was still able to control the Zerg as a human, it's not a surprise she has to become infested again to control the Zerg. it was stated in WoL that Kerrigan needed to live to control the Swarm.
anyways, my expectations for SC2's storyline isn't very high after completing the WoL campaign. pacing and story were so much better in SC1/BW.

why would the terran ending focus on kerrigan and not raynor also the fact it was made public then suddenly locked back to private seems like the guy accidently made it public activision are in full swing trying to crush this from getting out seems like more proof it's real also chris metzen's voice
it's not even that brood war had a great story either, but the concept had such a great foundation for a truly epic continuation.
kerrigan especially had potential as one of the most memorable villains in gaming. i dont care how much you get payed to do your job, you must be delusional to how little talent you have or you must truly not value creative progress in your industry to put out this kind of shit. where is the passion that i'm sure anyone in this thread would probably have more of compared to the actual developers?
the things i would fucking do if i had that kind of money.
It's nice to see people realizing just how badly they will screw up Diablo III's narrative. Did anyone see the hunter reveal trailer? This shit is on par with fucking generic JRPGs.
EPT
This is justice?? Really?
