Less than two months until launch... I was of the impression that they're still throwing stuff at the wall to see what sticks, rather than having 90% of it all set and just need to use a scalpel at this point.

Reclamation isn't the title of the cinematic it's actually the title of the series they're putting out prior to launch similar to the Lords of War series put out before Warlords of Drainer launched. (Which was quite good btw)

@Tresher Aiur fell "again" after the events (which were triggered by Amons sorry ass while as he had shown up after the planned invasion started) shown in the cinematic. How is that a spoiler? all the story stuff we know is based on the fact that Artanis plan to reclaim Aiur has gone tits up thanks to Amon and that P struggle to get help from zhe Terrenz etc. At first i thought the cinematic depicts the resistance back then during the zerg invasion but i think it's actually before Zeratul warns Artanis via prologue missions. @yall pls dont bitch about spoilers there rly aren't any in here.

I didn't play much at release but wasn't it similar with GomTvT? Or is it that it isn't working at all?

Tresher, sometimes they make those statements in the trailers to lead you on/ trick you! Frequently they'll be taken out of context on purpose.

I hope so. The thing that annoys me the most is that they seem to have not noticed it themselves. So I hope you are right.

That was fucking sick. Never knew archons could do that warping them they did on the Ultralisk, is that some new ability in LOTV?

They're paying homage to the Archon Toilet obviously.

The cinematic was pretty much what I expected though, visually very impressive, but not much distinguishing it from a Transformers movie. At least the Probe seeing some screentime was a pleasant surprise.

I was watching the cinematic while my wife was sitting next to me, and the first thing she said was "looks like Transformers!"

I don't recall whether or not it was formally established back in WoL beta if Terran was overpowered, or if that's what simply happened to be demonstrated after release with the pro-gamers. I think it was the latter, and even still, now Blizzard certainly has a better idea of SC2 than they did before it launched.

Almost makes me want to switch to Protoss

Almost

Terran still the best race though

Still, my 2nd favorite trailer right behind the HotS TvZ one

The spoilers are not in the Intro cinematic. They were during the Campaign Panel @ Blizzcon 2014:

+ Show Spoiler +
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gn_8Ee4dFDQ
from 31:27 to around 32:20. Listen what Artanis says.(sorry don´t know how to make timestamps.)
Ofc the main storyline will be about the fight against Amon. But the reclaiming of Aiur will be the beginning of the story. I was widely announced that this will be a big part in the Protoss campaign. This is what makes people hyped for the story because then they go: " I´m curious what will be the outcome of this Invasion. Can´t wait to play this." All to be ruined by an developer oversight during a preview. You don´t make an announcment of the Main race of the Add-On having a huge Invasion and then let the Main Character spoil it several minutes later.

So for me this was a huge spoiler. Maybe not for you but for me my excitment for the story went downhill from that.The only other intersting thing now will be the fight against Amon. The Subpar Multiplayer isn´t gonna help. So I hope DarkPlasmaBall is right and they still have some surprises up their sleeve.

OMG - they deleted Terran from the game. It's just Protoss and Zerg now

But that was really cool - though they should have just photon overcharged the pylon and stayed at home laughing.

The heat is on for balancing MP, but the campaign will keep me occupied whilst they balance it after release. Hopefully we get to control all three races at some point in the struggle.

They missed a good chance to revamp and bring back Dark Archons IMHO

Nah, Terran and Zerg had their times to shine in the previous cinematics. Finally nice to have some good Protoss content that isn't just Zeratul running around with his prophecies.
