since the announcement of starcraft2, so many people in my school are coming back to sc. even the people i never thought would have played starcraft were talking about it. one of the classmates in my physics class told me that he installed sc and the expansion last night after watching sc2 gameplay lol
these people forgot about sc long time ago, but then after watching sc2 game play/trailer, they wanted to come back and play what used to be their best game ever.
although awhile back when i talked about sc and everyone used to say it's the best game ever, none of them actually played it anymore.
but now, even the people who aren't really into video games are playing sc again. it's really awesome to see people play sc and talk about it. also couple of my old b.net friends have come back to sc, or at least have told me that they are coming back for WGTour and whatnot.
i think the main reason people are interested in playing sc again is because of starcraft2
also, i find it pretty interesting that it's very hard to find someone whos never played sc before. and it's A LOT harder to find someone say anything negative about sc.

anyway, i'm gonna be playing some games with friends from my school who are total newbies :D we are gonna probably play on bgh or something. heh, good old days >_<

i think blizzard did awesome job with the 1.15 patch(wgtour) and then the annoucement of sc2.

so, are people around u also coming back to play sc?

Yes!
OMG evrybody at my school is hyped about SC2 and my friend Brandon said he'll play me BW as soon as he find a disc cuz he doesn't want to feel newb when SC2 come out. He needs to get accustomed to the system.

<3 sc2!

some friends of mine are returning, people that quit 4 or 5 years ago, this is indeed really amazing, at least for me, there will be a huge community by the time SC2 is released, and even then, the community will grow bigger and bigger, this is just great ^^

Everyone is asking me bout SC2 thinking I'm hyped for it, and all surprised to hear I'm not with what I've seen so far. Noones really returning to SC, only the 20 or 25 so people that still play cause I keep bugging them about it.

only insult i've ever heard against sc are:

its too old - makes no sense. why wouldnt you play a game cus its old?

i've questioned people about that and they have no idea what to say, besides that its old, and its "graphics" aren't awesome

the day i play a game for graphics, is the day i stop playin video games
ok dont not so good something is something ok ok ok gogogo

Honestly giving Blizzards track record, and with what they've promised to do with this game; I don't see why people would expect it not to be awesome.

I dislike WC3 and WoW
Theyre blizz made.
I dont even like Diablo series.
So I'm not saying they suck, I just have better games to play, and I dont think SC2 can top those games I play at the moment.

Yeah. SO many people coming from W3 to play sc. Their noobish few unit micro oriented style is funny but they just come and play and increase our numbers
