You just won't get it.
Like bouzane said:
"Even if each SKU is reasonably priced this still means that I may have to wait an additional period of time to play as the Zerg again which sucks."
I find it illogical that Starcraft II is being divided into three SKU's based upon single-player content when the original was clearly focused on multi-player. This has cash grab written all over it"
This is the reason why i also don't like this thing Blizzard is doing.
I want to play all those three factions out-of-the-box.
Not everyone is like you who only like playing Terrans and online.
"I support Blizzard's decision because I want Big Epic Masterpiece campaigns, and the only to get it is by doing the way Blizzard is doing now.
Remember Starcraft 1 and it's cliff hangerish ending? Well, with the way Blizzard is doing it won't happen, and they will have enough time to make it as awesome as possible. The fact that each SC2 campaign will be 3-to-4 times bigger than SC1 campaigns is also a plus."
How do you know that it will be "BIG Epic Masterpiece", not just same type of missions for every faction ? Have you already played all the factions in it ? (Even though game isn't even out yet)
"You are officialy trolling. They said that they want their expansions to FEEL like full games, not be priced as one. Blizzard are already known to make the best expansions with the best value for money in the industry, and they never priced their expansions more than $40."
Like vlad321 said:
"Wings of Liberty, the game's first campaign, will be shipping with a full and complete multiplayer suite with all three races available."
Good till that, but:
"The subsequent titles will add campaigns for the Zerg and Protoss races and both will carry additions for the multiplayer portion."
"will carry additions for the multiplayer portion"
Is what worries me. There won't be full multiplayer experience, if you only buy Terran campaign.
"While no price point has been set yet, Browder stated that if the follow-up games feel like full-featured games, they'll be priced accordingly. If they don't they'll probably be priced around the average expansion pack price."
"If the follow-up games feel like full-featured games, they'll be priced accordingly"
Yep, yep
"Whatever the price is, though, we want the fans to feel like they've gotten their money's worth."
In other words, we will mik you, like we have done with WoW. (Have they at any point lowered their monthly cost to play it ?)

They are just getting more greedy as days go by.
"WoW Game: $19.99
Burning Crusade Expansion: $30-40
1 Month - $14.99
3 Months (prepaid) - $13.99/month = $41.97
6 Months (prepaid) - $12.99/month = $77.94
Prepaid Game Card (60-days) - $29.99)"
So it's at least 12,99 dollars per month/per subscriber
Multiple that with 11 million per MONTH
They "only" make 1.714.680.000 dollars per year from subscriptions only
@shio
And how are they gonna interviewe/sum up the story if there will be only these two "EXPANSION" sets ?
Nothing's cheaper than something free.
F1 vs FOTA, when too much power is in couple peoples hands.
