Boss battles where you dodge abilities as if you were playing WoW or D3. Constant hero missions that felt more like playing necromancer in D2 where your minions are just there for the fun but your hero does everything. Lots of pointless missions, especially the stupid evolution missions, where you basically just a-move your way through. The campaign is bad, really bad. I'd say it's an even bigger disappointment than Diablo 3. The story... well, it didn't convince me either. It's extremely contrived, even more than WoL. Well, at least there is multiplayer. | ||

I haven't played it yet, but it didn't look nearly as entertaining as WoL campaign, and maybe even easier A progamer steam rolled through the campaign and now its too ez. Am i missing something? I remember the last mission i think in BW i was looking at the guide and it literally said, save here and bum rush the overmind with the 200 army of terran and the 200 army of toss. Do not try and take a head on engagement because if you lose, you can't beat the mission. Now that was hard. Or defending the xel'naga temple Without killing all the zerg before hand. | ||

We spent the entire WoL campaign saving Kerrigan only to have her revert right at the fucking start of HoTS | ||

What I really really didn't like is that there is not a single mission that is a simple "macro up and go kill the other guy". Not one in 20. Every mission has some gimmick. And even the missions closest to that give you what... 2 bases max? And if you're lucky one will have 10 mineral patches. | ||

They're located in the Multiplayer Campaign. | ||

Less gimmicky missions than WoL overall, but still doesn't play like a real RTS. I wanna build shit vs harder and harder odds and just go fucking kill them. Didn't get to either expand or inject larva for some reason. Otherwise it was definitely better than WoL and worth playing though, even if it has nothing on the BW campaign. That's still by far the best RTS campaign ever made, with Warcraft 2 a close second. | ||

. That's still by far the best RTS campaign ever made Best? Seriously? Half of the missions were around "Make army and destroy every thing of enemy fortress" | ||

It's the entire point of the genre. If I buy an RTS, I want to play an RTS. The missions were also reasonably hard and generally required you to battle over resources and expand several times to win instead of this modern retard mode where you only play the objective and 'find all the thingies' with what you're given at the start of the map. BW = king. | ||

and even those hard or brutal difficulties are for very good casual gamers. When i started the WoL campagin in 2010 i never really played any kind of RTS games before, so the highest difficulties very pretty sick for me. After years of SCII i can just laugh about it now. It seems like a total different game. | ||
