Zerus is an inhospitable planet wrought with severely unstable volcanic activity situated within the central regions of the Milky Way. It was the original home of the zerg and several species of resilient giant insectoid creatures. WIth little different landscape maybe? As example, planet is covered with tons of ash and smoke, but no lava or volcanic activity, like in Char. | ||

The Zerg aren't evil, they're just beasts controlled by the Overmind/Kerrigan. Always have been. Kerrigan presumably isn't evil anymore, so... 'course there'll probably be the Dark Voice controlling other Zerg so they can do ZvZ :p | ||

They are manipulated, but by no means they are "good". I believe it was something like "the zerg will be set free, so only they will choose whether they are good or bad". Maybe Kerrigan's minions can be good, maybe others can be bad. Just like Protosses and Terrans. | ||

Always have been. agreed, the zerg have no motive, they are commanded and they follow obviously their leaders (overmind, kerrigan) need to have motive for what they do and personally I don't think it's very interesting to have their motive be "LOLOLO KILL SHIT KK?" on the other hand the motives should primarily be for the survival of the species or selfish to kerrigan/cerebrate etc. | ||

My point is in sc1 they were all different types of animals with really thick/hard skin | ||

Just like Protosses and Terrans. The spoiler has info about the leaked ending to HOTS. + Show Spoiler + I don't know... but if that is true I can already see a Disney ending to Legacy of the Void where everyone is like "oh my gawd dark voice is going to pwn us" and then all the "good" zergs fly in and help out, and they win the battle... :-/ The leaked ending was incredibly disappointing for me. I could go on for way longer bitching about it, but I will leave it at that. | ||
