the originals feel so much darker and "real" than the sequel

damn it Blizzard - you lost the mood :/

(don't misread this as hate on the gameplay however)

[BasinBictory]

I always loved this trailer. It's like a good Peckinpah film - juxtaposing beautiful music with scenes of death and destruction.

[HurinsChannel]

its so bad quality on it. I could draw something more realistic with a wet branch.

@CanadianInCanada thanks for the background mate - makes sense seeing as how they basically suicided the Warcraft franchise too. It makes me more than a little scared about D3 o_0 if they ruin that - I'm done with Blizz.

@1eye1derweasil There was a thread on the official forums criticising the campaign - and one of posters provided source on how most of the original writers for SC except Metzen are no longer with Blizzard. I suppose Blizzard wants to cater the game to all age groups, and want to shy away from the game's dark and gritty atmosphere. It's very disappointing.

@CanadianInCanada glad to see others agree with me :) I generally enjoy Blizzard games - but don't follow their development closely. Did a bunch of good writers/story developers leave after 1999ish? It makes me wonder at least.

[CanadianInCanada]

@1eye1derweasil Agreed. Now SC2 is a far cry from the original - totally pathetic. Blizzard has made a mockery of its lore and universe.

Il ove this trailer, it's so damn good.
