Diablo 2 was a horrible game. In all honesty, I'm glad there isn't another diablo game for me to waste valuable time on. Honestly, it's the addictive nature of Diablo, coupled with the accessories and ego of your avatar doll, and the really awesome and epic storylines that keep people playing. The "clickfest" is true for all videogames, though. It'd be cool to be able to use the arrow keys in diablo/2


Your opinion is wrong.

Yeah, although I personally think the graphics are actually really ****ing good and that the feel they presented is definitely "starcraft"

It's obvious they've been working on this for a long, long time.

Oh yeah, and the obligatory:

It looks, nice. Like SupCom it's has good graphics, but it's stylized to look like it's predecessor. I like that.

Hardly any of us disagreed with you. We just thought it was a waste.

1) There were quite a few who were convinced it was gonna be diablo 3 or something else.

2) You're wrong anyways.

:awesome:

They're made by the same damn company, what do you expect.

I personally am extremely pleased. Those graphics look exactly how I would want them - true to the original, but uber spiffy. The lighting and shadows look great.

You FAIL at humor and Starcraft allusions.

On the serious side, though, it does look like similar graphics to WC3, but I'll attribute it to not being fully developed yet.

i wish blizzard didnt stylize starcraft 2 to make it look cartoony like wc3.

yeah, i thought the graphics were meh at first, but i saw a gameplay video and the background/map detail totally wow'ed me.

I don't get it. A lot of people are criticizing SC2 already because they think that it's going to be a WC3 clone. Where's the joke in your post?

But seriously, why would you not want Starcraft 2? Why? A sequel to the best RTS ever (best selling also). Srsly.

Given that we have gameplay vids of one and a newer RTS put out by the same developer of another. I think we can gain a rough approximation of what they might be like... I presume DoW2 to be DoW with the CoH engine.

When the original Starcraft was being developed lots of people were quick to dub it "Warcraft in space." Like they say, "same ****, different day." :)

Also, one of the units (Corsair? Can't remember) says "This is NOT warcraft in space. It's much more sophisticated"
"Jayne, this is something the Captain has to do for himself"

"N-No it's not!"

"Oh."

I AM SO HAPPY!

I'm waiting for the Zerg profile.

Damn, I bet the whole Korean people at the game convention EXPLODED.

It was Artanis, as a scout.

"This is not warcraft in space!"
"It's... much more sophisticated!"

That's the one. I knew it wasn't a usual unit, but I couldn't be sure.

2007-05-20, 7:16 AM #188
I never really finished playing Brood Wars. That's where Artanis is from, right? For some reason, the lack of cinematics as intermissions in the campaigns like they did it in the original game was a big let-down. Talking about cinematics, that marine in the CG trailer looks like he just walked out of Warcraft. The first Starcraft's characters, however cartoony, didn't give me that impression.

I liked the Protoss teleporting units... And the Terran jetpack guys. Also, notice how the long-footed War of the Worlds unit can scale higher terrain. Pretty cool.

That floating city thing had some cool effects, but it better be damn hard to build (Like the ultimate units in Rise of Legends) and you better only be able to have one.

It looks quite awesome and I never played the orginal Starcarft and yep it looks like I have finally regretted it. Never mind I'll save and buy this and it should and would run on my Dell laptop hopefully :).

I was about to give a nice big retort, but you've never had a computer capable of playing WC3.
