You are young, my son, and, as the years go by, time will change and even reverse many of your present opinions. Refrain therefore awhile from setting yourself up as a judge of the highest matters. I must disagree, if a young adult is highly reistent to peer pressure, and has logic, sensibility, et cetera. | ||

i think SC2 looks mediocre as is, and would be challenged to pay2play if it's still a similar product by the time release rolls around | ||

Pay to play is nice. If you can't pay like $10/month your a cheap bastard. I guess most of the people who don't wanna pay are the 14-year olds who don't have money This is foolish and selfish. They do not need 10$ a month. That is generally one hour of work, and when SC2 get's old, you could have given 360$ dollars if you played 3 years straight... Ridiculous. That is more ridiculous/worse than paying 360$ for a good game! It also endangers pro sports, and discourages pro gaming, because less people, (80% in this case), would play. While some could actually be better players than those who play online for 10$ a month. | ||

Also, not everyone who plays SC lives in the United States, therefore, is kind of hard for people outside the US to get Dollars or internet dollars, ask me, my government has a cap on the amount we can spend on the internet (it's 400$ ) | ||

Here 10 becomes 31. But you cant ok "ok but we also get 3 times more number in the salary" No, you get 600 dollars in USA for a crapy job, here you will get 220 dollars. I wouldnt pay ever to play sc2 online. I would just wait for a national server and would shit on progaming. | ||

SC2 is P2P then i'll get it from friends or in some other way :-) and just play the single player campaign, then just stop playing SC2 is free like SC1, i am going to buy the original game and eventually play it online, by the way, i own 2 copy of SC (english and italian) and 1 BW (italia) $10 is not much that's true, but even if i use to spend a lot of time with SC, i have a family and i have other priority then paying for online gaming ... i am sure everyone who has to pay his own bills KNOW what i mean ... | ||

I wish someone would get that in our country. They overcharge on cable and especially satalite internet here. In order to actually play SC my parents would have to pay 60$ more each month, and maybe even have to buy another dish. | ||
