Heart of the Swarm > Wings of Liberty >>>>>>> Legacy of the Void
Agree /v/?
>>321640018
I agree that you have a shit opinion.
No one in their right mind would put HotS first. Not even zerg fanboys.
WoL->LotV->HotS
All of that <<<<<<<< Supreme Commander
>>321640175
Bought it this steam sale for 3 bucks. Campaign is pretty fucking shit.
>>321640018
all 3 were the best game of their time idiot
>>321640018
If you're talking storyline, you're a retard.
If you're talking multiplayer, you're even more of a retard.
>>321640175
nah
>>321640018
Either terminally shit taste, or bad b8.
>>321640018
Hell fucking no.
Go die on a fire.
There are peope who really played the void?

Fuck off already OP.
>>321642393
Yes.
It is pretty good overall, way better than HotS, but the retarded epilogue is horrible and almost enough to sour the whole experience.
Thankfully the multiplayer is pretty fun nowadays.
>>321642525
>the multiplayer is pretty fun nowadays.
This edgy motherfucker was the best character in the whole trilogy.
I want more of him and his silky smooth voice.

It is imo.
The increased starting worker count, and economy changes has made the game's start far more open ended, as well as encourage more aggressive expansion and map control, instead of the more "turtle until you got your deathball ready" gameplay the previous expansions had.
Also, this unit is fun as fuck to use. Nothing is sweeter than blowing up hordes of zerg or terran muhreen blobs with few well placed disruptor novas.
>>321640152
I didn't play LoTV yet, so cannot asses if it's better than HoTS.

But yes, I agree John DeLancie is a great voice for him
>>321642876
He's more Protoss Sith.
>>321642876
>Liking Literal Protoss Discord
What?
I am not familiar with your manchild show.
>>321642975
Don't you know? Anything voiced by John DeLancie is now considered horseshit and belongs on /mlp/ because he voices a character on that show.
>>321643120
Well that's retarded.
>>321642873
>being reasonable around here
You're doing it wrong
>>321642604
It is though.
SC2 has had a decent multiplayer for years now.
>>321643176
Still it will be miles better than HoTS because God...Kerrigan was a massive MS in the Zerg campaign. Not to mention it having no redeeming qualities like WoL.
>>321642769
>The increased starting worker count, and economy changes has made the game's start far more open ended,
Yes, this was the only good change in my opinion.
As for the bad, you already stated one yourself. There's so much high damage AoE shit going on (disruptors, lurkers, ...) that you can lose 90% of your army in an instant.
God forbid a few sneaky disruptor shots going off while you're macroing back at base for a few seconds. Game ogre.
This was already quite problematic in HotS but LotV dialled it up to 11 with disruptors, lurkers, etc.
>>321643451
Git gud senpai.
Seriously though, scouting is everything in this game. Disruprots etc also discourage the deathballing tremendously, which is a bloody good thing.
I liked Artanis' struggle of trying to gain and strengthen allies by convincing his people to break with tradition, but it definitely wasn't perfect. Especially when he finally convinces that historian chickto break from the khala immediately after she's just discovered Aemons weakness/plan through using the khala
>>321643613
Disruptors are a low (no) risk, extremely high reward unit.
Plus, the micro required to execute the attack versus the micro required to defend against it is disproportionate. And this goes for a lot of the new units since HotS.
>>321644645
>And this goes for a lot of the new units since HotS.
It's been that way for Protoss since WoL.
>>321644645
>>321644645
Except the disruptor is literally all protoss has to deal with Lurkers, Ravagers, the new Corrupters, Liberators, etc.
>>321645640
>disruptor
>all protoss has to deal with corruptors, liberators
What the fuck are you saying senpai.
>>321645640
Yeah well, that's another point entirely. You are REQUIRED to have hardcounter X against strategy Y or you will pretty much immediately lose the game or be at an extreme disadvantage.
Neo-Blizzard doesn't know shit about game balance.
>>321645801
Protoss got completely shafted in terms of the sky battle so they have to rely on nuking the ground to win. Except the Liberator is all they have for it, and it does fuck all when your Nexi is being melted by Corruptors or your mineral lines are getting shot down by Liberators.
>>321642616
Dumb character, but his VA made it great.
Wings of Broodlord Infestor > Heart of the Protoss Deathball > Legacy of the Mass Adept
It just gets worse with each iteration.
>>321643451
But SC2 needs to be fast and volatile, according to Blizzard. No wonder even the koreans who practice 12 hours a day cannot show consistent results, player input is literally just how efficiently you can macro, the battles are the same regardless of who's playing.
>>321646403
>No wonder even the koreans who practice 12 hours a day cannot show consistent results

>>321646403

Wut. Macro efficiency is indeed the most important factor to a certain extent, but at the pro level they're pretty much all equal. It doesn't really make a noticeable difference there. It actually comes down to the micro battles.
>>321646896
It's also down to scouting/denying scouting. Following a build path at random with an enemy observer above your base is going to put you at a huge disadvantage in micro battles, equal macro or not.
Arcade > All
I wish someone would make an FPS based on the Rising Dead map. Just a bunch of players wandering a huge city to gather equipment and accomplish objectives while the living dead assail them.
>>321646010
Protoss didn't got shafted in terms of the sky battles, they're better than T.
The answer to liberators in lategame are tempests, not fucking disruptors.
Liberators are actually what the terran wants to make when he sees disruptors.
>>321646010
Everyone except zerg got shafted in the air battle.
Or did they fix parasitic bomb yet
>>321647365
>he doesn't play nexus squadron exclusively
literally the best line war
>>321648109
I started playing 2 days ago after not touching it for 2 years. Used to play Nexus Wars, Desert Strike, Mafia and others with a buddy.
>>321640152
If this is true then I've been waiting for nothing these past five years.
>>321648343
I played some squadron TD for the first time in fucking ages and they changed the income values on the sends, didn't notice until i checked the income stats and I was WAY behind
Even though i remedied that, none of my strats work anymore and I keep ruining things for my team
so I'm replaying the campaign until i get LotV, probably this week
