I think SC2 is vastly dumbed down and units that really added a lot of skill got removed. Just giving back the mine to Terrans would vastly improve the game, if they had balanced it right from the beginning that is.. Luckily BW was so awesome that even if you makes it more shallow it's still a super good game. | ||

Yea, I think that's the fun. You feel so bad when you are harrassed, so you feel so good when you harrass yourself (e.g. dying in dota is not fun, it feels bad; killing feels good because you 'pwn' them/ make them feel bad -> make you feel good). Harass is definately fun. yeah, it's a result of grouping large amount of people together. "the issue is actually that the [any group here, e.g. children, women, men, gamers, europeans] doesnt know what it wants" | ||

Want to make Starcraft "fun?" Take out harrassment. Harassment is annoying; no one sees mutalisks in their mineral line and thinks to themselves, "Awesome!" But harassment is part of what makes Starcraft worthy of being called a sport. If we wanted the game to be "fun," they should just institute a magical barrier that stops all aggression for the first twenty minutes, so that Starcraft is reduced to a bunch of things exploding after that 20 minute mark. Only thing is, that wouldn't be fun after a few days... I don't know, carrying out the harassment successfully in incredibly fun. | ||

It is a positive interview and that Blizzard takes SC2 seriously and wont introduce machine gun wielding dolphins and monkeys with grenades Well, those infested bunkers they've showwn aren't that far off -_- Such a bad concept.... | ||

Ahurhurhur Even though this is a bit of a sensationalist headline I get what it means. Makes sense as well. | ||

At any rate, I can certainly relate to Dustin Browder. I have a fair amount of experience with the BFME series (which apparently he worked on, don't know for sure,) and I modded it for a long time. I would constantly rework my ideas of what makes a good game and start my mod over from scratch. I started as a kid who wanted a "fun" game, and to add things into the original. The rest of the modding community for that game was pretty much the same way, whether it's adding dozens of new units and heroes, or making the game "realistic" (as in, buildings are nearly invulnerable to all but siege weapons and everything takes multiple minutes to produce.) Over time I got more into esports and starcraft, and my modding reflected that. In the end the engine just wasn't good enough for me. It probably took me about a year and a half to figure it out. | ||

Some of the funstuff might actually need skill...but you know I think that Wings of liberty is like initiation I think the Expansions will weed out people who break because they can't use X unit as efficiently as the pros. We can only hope my friend we can only hope. I actually look forward to the day where gold league is an accomplishment. | ||

I like Dustin and everything he has done. If he really was doing a bad job, there wouldn't be a new tournament announced every week. He must be doing something right. | ||
