What rank did you get to in WoL? blizzards imo kind of lost what made their story's unique. For instance, the older starcrafts had a B-movie vibe, like john carpenter-esque imo. The new ones are like a plot between the new Final Fantasy's and Gears of War. @Axum, I'm playing Tomb Raider still, and The Witcher 1 again, with enhanced combat mod! The amount of banging people is a bit ludicrous! TW2 brings it down to a more acceptable level. haha |
Oh I suck so Silver lol, I have never been big into competitive multiplayer anyway.
The writing is pretty lame I mean Starcraft 1 wasn't exactly a great narrative, it was a sort of campy B-Movie sci-fi. but the fact that they have gone extra cheesy with an all story ancient prophecy plot with SC2's arc, with groan inducing dialog just to rub it in. Focusing the story on the charcters and their relationships was kinda a mistake when they clearly struggle to write compelling dialog was a mistake, I mean people like the SC characters (me included) but they can't really carry the narritve (at least not how they are written in 2, maybe with a writer that could do good dialog they could) and the background plot is just not that interesting. And I honestly can't think of a single compelling new character from SC2.
