Absurd. absurd how people can find just about anything to be negative about. Blizz is supporting the RTS genre in a way no other developer/publisher ever has in the entire history of the genre. i think its fucking awesome. | ||

Why do I want this to happen so much? Because you really don't like SC2. I can't remember the last time I saw you post and it wasn't about how bad Blizzard is | ||

I know there's a good game that can be made out of it, but that would take tearing the game to the ground and a different developer rebuilding it to make that happen. I just want Blizzard to finally see first-hand how badly they've fucked up, somewhere the community can't just bury it's head and say RTS games aren't popular any more. | ||

Why do I want this to happen so much? no, Brood War took a long time to make and refine. They started working on it right after they finished the WC2 Battle.Net Edition. Then they made Brood War. Then they continued to work on Brood War for another 18 months after its retail release. the center of the company revolved around SC1 and Brood War. SC2 was a low priority passing through the hands of 3 different designers. Pardo was their #1 designer and got moved off of SC2 very early on as the company mainly focused on WoW. | ||

Why do I want this to happen so much? this is a really dumb point of view Deus Ex is IMO the best game ever made, there are certainly many many games that had a way bigger budget and bigger development teams. This doesn't mean the developers should be embarrassed for making games like HL2 or Bioshock or GTA5 just because they aren't as good (IMO). | ||
