The murderous marine in the trailer was right... "Its about DAMN TIME!!!" For anyone who still owns a copy of this game from when it first came out it has been a long(and I do mean LONG) wait for anything even resembling a sequel in the classic sense for this EPIC. There's been no closure for our heroes of the starcraft world and no evolution of the product in about a decade.
So just when we gave up all hope of a sequel and moved on to other franchises Starcraft2 come knocking on our door with a "Sorry I'm Late". I almost don't wanna let her in... but shes just to damn hot. By now we've all seen the latest pics and vids from Blizzard but the gameplay doesn't look like something we haven't seen before. Same large scale battles. Same races. Same setup. Looks glossier, new units, but the question many are asking is, is it the same old thing? Rise of Legends at one point seemed to be the latest successor to the RTS throne. Warcraft3 and WOW evolved beyond their settings to focus on thier world and change the gameplay for a new feel. "GASP" Did this series die way back when? Or can it comeback to its former glory with something new and improved?
Try to remember that we have only seen the "Alpha". That means they may not even be done with the story and all the units yet. So for all who aren't content with the current look don't judge that book just yet. Just like Warcraft the series may evolve in ways we haven't even thought of yet. Wait for the beta. We only got a sneak peak to go on so lets give this old dog a chance to roll over before we tell it to play dead.
I on a personal note LOVED THE NEW FOOTAGE. Did you?
