I continue my talk. I think now at around five years of time it is time to evaluate the results of the project called Starcraft 2 and make moves according to these results. Has it accomplished the goals that were set to the game? Is it a worty successor to the original Starcraft? Is it fun? Is it popular?

Then after this evaluation phase the big boss of the company must take action according to the results. Is it a raise in the payroll for the lead developer or something else? It's not an option for the main developer to shut down all critique and claim that the game rocks if majority thinks it doesn't.

I watched yesterday a showmatch of LotV and I gotta say that I did not like what I saw. It was the exact same deathball-mess that it was also in WoL and HotS fighting on weird choke-points and forcefields. I did not wait "gg" as there seemed to be no positional strategy to speak of involved other than spam forcefields on choke points. And why on earth protoss has those flying things that can kill 10 probes in 5 seconds if you fail to see them?

In order to criticize something, you must first understand it even to a basic degree. This is part of the problem.

Also, the protoss "flying thing" you are referring to is an oracle.
