Poor poor broodwar. Never played it, never involved in the community, but you guys have so much passion for that game, it's really hard not to be sad at the end of that. On the other hand, it's not completely over, they do have sc2. Hopefully they watch and at least give it a try for a month or so.

Indie companies dont have the rights to do that, but Blizzard could the way it could be done is in a new engine and you would have two difficulties Hardcore and Casual. The hardcore would be exactly the same as BW with the pathing the way buildings work, automine etc etc and the casual mode would be SC2 Ish with BW Units. I really dont see why blizzard wouldnt want to cash in on this.

Well, atleast this is more concrete than when WC3 slowely faded away into Darkness ;(

It was the most influencial time in eSports history yet, and as long as we all live, its time and glory will not be forgotten.
Rest in a wonderful peace, Starcraft 1, and may you always be remembered.

Torch light 1 in game play and feels just like diablo 1 and if there is a will there is a way maybe some indie developer will pick up broodwar and made a rts enjoyable as much as bw . There is a hope for indie developers since torch light did really well despite having the same core mechanics from diablo 1 and diablo2 in torch light 1 and 2 . Blizzard can't sue runic for having the same mechanics of looting and poting up when you are on low hp or mana .

Any indie developer is welcome to make a game as good as broodwar and I will be the first to say take my MONEY !. Yes I agree nothing can replace bw .

why would indie developers invest in a dying and overly complicated genre? Dota and FPS games requires very little funding and have a huge market. If I remembered correctly it only costs LoL 200k to make their game, while games like sc2 requires 100 million budget

they should seriously remake BW, or a clone, like torchlight with diablo, BW is a legendary game, a museum piece, that cannot be lost.

Last I check fps games are much more stronger than the rpg scene right now .However that does not mean some one can't do a torch light facelift to a re imagination of broodwar. I would like to add to the fact that torchlight bgm music is really one of a kind mat uleman is really talented and I am hopeful that he keeps spinning this magic of his.
