too bad the story isnt that long, imagine if starcraft was a 3rd person shooter, that would be epic.if it was any good.


why do you think the story will be short? there are 26 missions (i think). the story will basically be what is in between those missions.

an average shooter has less than 20 missions/levels/whatever. the story is usually mostly told between the missions there as well.

if anything, i think blizzards RTS' tell more story than shooters do. The Warcraft 3 story over the three campaigns was pretty long. there are longer games, story wise, than Warcraft 3 for sure, but those are 90% RPGs, not shooters or action games.


will the story be 15 hours? well i dont expect rts games to have longs stories.

warcraft is something else, it has endless possibilities dota itself should be counted as a separate game 



Being in 3rd place never felt so good

Naaaah... it has plenty of cliche moments... its epic and all, but it was better suited for a FPS/TPS IMO. Nothing ever beats the Warcraft 3 cinematics tough

Overused sci-fi story? Check.
Clichéd one-liners? Check.
Akward looking space marines? Check.
Typical Requiem for a Dream-esque sound track? Check.

Most epic trailer ever made? Hell to the naw! Cringeworthy at best.

Pretty good but it still doesn't beat my NR 1 wich is still after 12 years  Zelda OoT.



If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)

And shepherds we shall be,

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

Overused? No.

One liners? Sure.

Awkward looknig space marines? Which ones are you looking at?

Requiem for a Dream-esque soundtrack? Perhaps, but at least it isn't actually that song.

 

I'll admit that, for me at least, it's the most epic merely because I enjoyed Starcraft's story so much. On its own it's not a "cringe-worthy" commercial like you said.

 

I'm lead to believe that you are one of those incredibly picky people who probably thinks his opinion is "refined".

I agree with most of his points, and this is from someone who 'loves' the SC plot.  The cringeworthy lines really stood out to me.  I expect (hope) the ingame cutscenes will seem better as I'm playing through the campaign.

For a sec there I was thinking of Starcraft: Ghost...

Since I've already seen so much gameplay, this was beyond epic. My new favourite trailer ever.

"will the story be 15 hours? well i dont expect rts games to have longs stories.

Play the original SC, even though everything is told in the mission briefing, it's a long and very detailed story. Also, Warcraft 3 is an RTS just like Starcraft 2, so what do you mean?



I LOVE ICELAND!

Blizzard always made great CGI Trailers, but this was the poorest one, War Craft 3 CGI Trailer was possibly the best IMO, Diablo 2's was up there too but War Craft 3 was top notch to me, better than any others by a Mile.

Another way Activision is ruining Blizzard. "Let's make cliched crap, and forget any substance." I mean the final cinematic of Frozen Throne, holy shit. Or even just 2 years ago with the WotLK intro cinematic.
