i want an action movie style plot.
i do not want a plot on par with a woman who is attempting to create the pinnacle novel in her 30 year career who is trying to project "the ideal man".

something that a guy like Mario Puzo would create would be good.
again i don't know much about fiction writers so i have very few examples to go on.

Probe planting the pylon is one of the coolest things I've ever seen in a video game cinematic!

This trailer was god tier. The insane attention to detail and fan service. It's put the most smiles on my face since the Starcraft 1 protoss campaigns.

I just hope so much that the characters are more elaborated (not only, but especially the side characters like tosh, horner, well even abathur).

maybe its 5 years of Protoss hatred, but I think this video pales in comparison to the HOTS cinematic! Still tho... Nov is so soon. how will they possibly balance around the macro changes by then? t.t
I might be the minority on TL, but TL is the minority everywhere else.

I don't play SC2 for a couple of months, now... But after watching this video ("POWER OVERWHELMING!") I hit pre order button 17 times!

I think it's remarkable how polarising the storyline of SC2 can be.

I *hated* the HotS story. I thought the writing was simply awful and the characters thoroughly one-dimensional. My wife, on the other hand, loved it - thought it was great space opera. At the same time, we very rarely disagree on the films we enjoy.

I hated the HotS story as well. The general starcraft story has fallen into comic book like inability for events to have lasting consequences. No one dies, characters don't change in meaningful ways, nothing really happens. In sc/sc:bw real characters actually died (tassadar, fenix), mengsk showed his true colors leaving Kerrigan out to dry, the overmind died. Now it feels like whatever happens, the status quo will be maintained (raynor is a space cowboy, Kerrigan is queen of the zerg, zeratul is an outcast) because that's what they were originally, and nothing can change in the flagship characters.

I'm also disappointed how theyve treated the villains. Kerrigan double crossing (in bw?) felt much more villainous than the whole "evil space entity" Amon thing they've got going on now, which really undercuts the zerg as the series antagonists . They're not supposed to be misunderstood, they're supposed to be ravenous murder machines. I want to see blizzard take the kids gloves off and kill Raynor, Kerrigan and Zeratul

Well, looks like I'll be purchasing the physical copy at a local EB Games the day of... all just for the campaign

Wish I could get back into playing this game competitively, like WC3 had me hooked into RTS for so man years

The Zealot that suicided on the banelings should have said "My life for Aiur." Hell, they used Power Overwhelming.

Zeratul already gave a really inspired "My life for Aiur" in the last video, so they probably didn't wanna overuse it. This trailer was really, really fun to watch and reminded me how great the Protoss are.

Actually, now I'm wondering how Zerglings ever attack pylons :p
