EPTbesides, it would be hard to make UI as buggy as it was in BW
and u can hardly get any new blood to a scene having such cool graphics and pathing like in BW, simply too hard and doesn't looks promising for new ppl
sorry guys, u are in the past

Keep strong JAGW, even foreigner can buy plane tickets I guess? What do you expect? The alternative is ignoring the cold facts that every team is disbanding and big name players are either retiring or returning to BW. That speaks volumes about perception of the quality between sc2 vs bw. I wish this conversation never had to happen either but that's what's really happening. | ||

I haven't checked gametrics in a while. Lol | ||

But I really think Blizzard made a great mistake in not getting the same design people for Starcraft 2, that they had for starcaft and broodwar. It seems to me they approached starcraft 2 with the same mindset and kind of design philosophy as Command & Conquer etc. which had no real unit design other than make it big, cool looking and satisfying as many cliches as possible... I personally think blizzard became to arrogant and complacent. The fact of them introducing the mothership was the first indication.. My initial reaction was "Are you kidding is this C&C? Did you watch too much independence day?" Then the forcefield.. first thought in the beta "What the fuck this ability is so strong, how can that work?" They can still turn Starcraft 2 into a worthy starcraft, but only with more radical changes and maybe by adding some of the old team or some new blood that has an idea and a vision of the races and how their units should be designed. If there is anything we should have learned by now: "Make good design first, then balance for the fine tuning" Don't balance around bad design. In any case I guess Blizzard blew it's chance to make sc2 a worthy successor to BW in Korea. SC2 will still survive... since we don't really have any other good RTS for esports. | ||

67k viewers today for ASL for a RO24 Again why should Korea give in demands towards some SC2 foreigners who a) never achieved anything in BW, never did anything positive to the BW scene b) Blizzard forced the transition towards SC2 and robbed 4 years of highest level BW c) SC2 killed proleague which was build up through hard work throughout the years. It is usually in history that those who lose a destructive, pointless war should not demand war reparations. You either watch BW despite the graphics, or forever stay with SC2. Don't demand anything to the detriment of people who are actually passionate about BW for so many years, who sticked with it for so long Indeed times have changed. May you should change as well and accept BW as it is. | ||

It's funny how some people choose to live in the delusion that BW is dead just because they are ignorant to the scene. | ||

Why should we pamper the miniscule SC2 scene who mostly never gave a fuck about BW because of graphics? I can't believe how entitled this demand is. I think it would be a very good idea to make a "bw 2". Look at csgo. I cant help but compare csgo to sc2: for someone who loved 1.6 and BW back in the day it is pretty clear which gaming company did the right choice and which dropped the ball. | ||

Can you prove that number? Where is it coming from? Counting every single streamer who might have watched it on his stream? | ||

Where did you get that number from and how much it is inflated by viewbots? | ||

Even if it was true I'm sure that 90% of it were Koreans, which ofc isn't a bad thing considering it's a Korean tournament. In fact it's a good thing, it's what SC2 lacked in Korea. | ||

Nah sure, i know that it's popular in korea and i like it that way, but 67k seems like a number he pulled out of his ass and i don't appreciate that. | ||

SC2 in Korea was mostly killed because you had to pay for the game itself. SC:BW was played off 1 copy per computer. Though the big killer was LoL coming out fairly soon after SC2 launched while being F2P. Pretty much everyone was playing LoL from 2011 through 2016. That's why there is so much talent in competitive teams. | ||
