The chance for that happening are just abysmally low. To be fair, StarCraft Brood War is addictive enough on its own merit. You know it's true. | ||

If it’s super successful I’m still not sure it moves the needle on an SC3. Equally if it bombs I don’t think it inhibits it either. | ||

Kind of bummed out that King isnt making the mobile game they are already a part of the company. A Starcraft candycrush would have been lit | ||

- First person SCV offworld mining game, Mass Effect style romance on a remote outpost. Farther the player goes the more dangerous but better minerals and abandoned Refineries. Maybe no actual Zerg or Protoss but remnants, local dangerous wildlife and magma or even ice volcanoes as danger as well. - Star Fox style single player game using an assortment of Wraith's, Ravens, Vikings - Traditional RTS StarCraft but only multiplayer or only campaigns. Keep it robust but not too much feature creep. - | ||

Nexon has a long list of mistakes in their credits. They probably started ditching other projects when they got overwatch and StarCraft rights. This is a big loot situation. This could change their life. | ||

I am picturing a scenario where whatever they are developing will get teased at Blizzcon 2026. I think it is incredibly likely. Blizz is returning to blizzcon after years they will wanna make a big impression and not leave anyone out to win back the hearts of their community. this is like microsofts first real blizzcon after having some time with the acquisition and they have a chance to show the company is in good hands now. They already spoke highly of starcraft in the past, saying they want to revitalize it, they wear starcraft shirts on stage, i think next blizzcon will have starcraft in it! the starcraft 3 copium train is alive and i will be its conductor. youre in good hands. I love the optimism but I honestly don't think they have the talent anymore. I think thats why Blizzard bled ALL their RTS talent they had acquired through the late 2010s. There wasn't a new RTS in production so they all left. | ||
