Read most of it and I gotta say, a lot of what Nyovne predicted hit the nail on the head. Loled a little when he said he was glad there was no weird kind of 'hero' unit. Anyways great read (everyone on TL should at least skim through this.. gives a lot of good perspective) and its funny to see how pretty much everything he said in '08 is still relevant. | ||

news flash, sc2 is already bigger than Broodwar as an Esport , Sure it might not be doing "as well" in korea when compared to BW, but everywhere else it has blown everybodys expectations into the ground, Call me when broodwar does this , ill be waiting. User was temp banned for this post. | ||

This was a post created 3 years ago. Did you really need to bring a "SC2 is bigger than BW" here? | ||

Of course, that being said, this was written three years ago, years before the game came out and before any macro mechanics had been added, after paltry hours of playtime at a convention...so it really doesn't have much in the way of valid insights about SC2 as it exists now. If you try to turn this thread into a BW vs SC2 thing, or worse, actually try to prove a point using this article as an authority, I will slap you with a herring. | ||

The following just needs to be QFT and accepted: - SC2 is bigger than BW, in terms of fan-base, support etv. - BW is a more balanced game and takes more skill | ||

People acted like blizzard wouldn't know that selecting multiple buildings would make the game easier back then and that they would just let it go, you noticed asap that this wasn't the case. Anyway in 25 years when we discuss about sc3 being better then sc4, because sc4 uses neural link tech which makes the game to easy. We can discuss what game was better sc1:bw or sc2 WoL or HotS or LotV(whatever of the 3 parts will make it in multiplayer, i hope its WoL for now  )For now i will enjoy both games while there are people playing them . Though currently i play D1 again >.< | ||

Though this still rings too true: - Reavers are so much more exciting to use let alone see in action then Collossi. The Colossus has proven to be such a terrible unit. I wish blizzard would have seen this earlier on. | ||

If I added to that I submit myself to ritual sacrifice by the community . But rereading this made me tingle a bit to write something about HotS and how certain things worked out for SC2. Might be interesting if I get around to it this week or the next. Would make a decent blog I'd wager. | ||
