Again, are you sure this applies to the plot?  The reason the orc and human stuff in WC3 was lacking was due to story considerations, right?

They have not talked about the plot of SC2 at all beyond the very basics of what has happened to jim raynor, zeratul, and the zerg since brood wars. I'm also assuming that if they aren't even done with the Terran campaign or started doing the Zerg/Protoss campaign that the plot is still very much able to change. Also, considering they waited until Blizzcon to announce the trilogy I think it would be safe to assume that the decision was made no more than 2 to 4 months before the convention, otherwise they probably would have told us earlier.

I strongly disagree with your assumptions.  I think that the plot is much more developed than you think, although I freely admit to zero actual expertise in this area.  You may be right about when they decided that the Z/P campaigns were so far from completion that it was better to split them up entirely than delay that much; but that does not at all mean that the campaigns' plotlines and pacing were greatly affected by this production decision IMO.

I too have no expertise in the area, and while it may be developed, I'm sure it's still very much up for change, or it was before they decided to split the campaigns. My problem also is not with the affect of the the change to the plotlines, but with the pacing, there's no reason to make a plot which will do a 30 mission streak with the same race. Or maybe we are all mistaken and by Terran campaign they mean that the campaign will deal only with the Terran, but you will still get a bunch of missions as Protoss/Zerg.

Well, now that we've both admitted we are going on nothing more than speculation/theory and our own opinions, and we've both presented them to each other in competition, I don't think there's really anything we can do but agree to disagree (much as I would like to continue trying to sway you to my obviously superior viewpoint ).

I would be extremely surprised if your final suggestion turns out to be the case, if for no other reason than if it was true, surely they would tell us to stop all the bitching about not playing zerg/protoss in the campaign in the first installment.
