» StarCraft II split into three games!
Blizzard developers have announced that the SC-II project is so massive that they’ve decided to split the single-player campaign into three different games—one for Protoss, one for Zerg, and one for Terran. in the original Starcraft, as i’m sure you all remember, you had 30 missions that would take you through all three races, but with StarCraft II developers realized that there was just so much content that they felt splitting the game into three 36-mission-long campaigns was their best option. it was either that or “drastically scaling back the single-player portion of the game.”
what’s funny is despite the fact that StarCraft II is actually three times longer than the original StarCraft campaign—and more—those rabid know-nothing gamers are already quick to attack Blizzard for the decision. i guess they don’t like that they’ll have to buy each part what’s essentially a trilogy, rather than the three-games-in-one that they were hoping for.
am i happy that i’ll have to pay for three games in order to complete all the SC-II campaigns? no, but i’m understanding of the situation, and it’s not like they’re implementing spore-like DRM.
also, might i add that no one is pointing a gun to these people’s heads and saying, “YOU MUST COMPLETE EACH CAMPAIGN.” god knows that most people will end up downloading whichever copies they don’t own anyway. Posted 3 years ago with 0 notes
