Metzen seriously believes that his writing in the 90s was the result of a dark time in his life and now he's commissioning Warcraft books for actual children and just wants to write superhero stories.
SC2 and D3 were in development for so long they just feel like the teams had to rush to throw stuff together in the last 2 years to actually release the damn games. I wonder how the SC2 we saw at Blizzcon 2007 would have turned out, the atmosphere felt more bleak and more like SC1 compared to the final release.

I was watching some speedrun of starcraft campaigns, those were crazy.
Also what were your favourite maps in starcraft and warcraft campaigns?
I like this one, played through it again today.
Also like wc2 Dalaran map. Final map for protoss in broodwar is nice too.
I liked Legacy of the Void desu.

>>344040570
My fav SC map was definitely the BC shipyard one in brood war.
Very creative use of a small set of units, it was almost like a puzzle map and it culminated into a full BC on BC battle at the end.
>>344040753
Hydralisks sound so forgettable in SC2.
SC1 ones were creepy as fuck, and iconic.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Hi6rJB_--g
Whereas SC2 ones just sound like some big animal, nothing more.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_5WK9cqiic
Zerg sounds in SC2 are in general, really forgettable and lame.
>>344041007
It was so cool how even though it was guttural roaring, each zerg still sounded very distinctly different.
>>344040759
That pretty much sums the way the aesthetics of the protoss changed from SC1 to SC2.
The SC2 protoss, technology, clothing and building wise at least, look more at home in WoW than in Starcraft.
Compare the old zealots to new ones for example.
YOU CALLED AN EXTERMINATOR?
>>344041416
I live in the balkans and i believe sc was one of the first original games i ever got, i remember playing the fuck out of it and often rewatching this cinematic - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7pifjPrBqI
I also loved the soundtrack and the dark and gritty atmosphere of the game. Nowdays blizz just seems to make cartoony bullshit for children. I guess i am no longer the demographic after seeing what they did with the necromancer in their shitty moba game, i basically felt raped at this point.
I am glad i found that mewdry bw channel at twitch, it runs pro-game bw stuff, it's really cool and comfy for me.

>>344042227
Yeah, the protoss campaign, despite imo, being the best one out of the trilogy, still felt like it was missing a ton of stuff that it desperately needed. More characters for one, that's for sure.
>>344037338
2 words:
Dark Archon......wwooooOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAaaahhhhhh......

Defense missions were the best.
Under the Burning Sky in wc3 was intense as fuck.
>>344042802
regular archon
POWER OVERWHELMING
>>344040703
I liked the ending making use of all three races in a series of mega-missions, the steady push up the map with protoss was quite enjoyable and setting up forward bases actually felt strategic instead of just cosmetic.
Also Alarak was an immensly enjoyable character for his sheer powerhouse presence and brutal, unwavering adhesion to his own might-makes-right morality system. I can applaud Blizzard for not having him cave in and agree that friendship is best by the end.
That said...
>LotV rehashes former mission mechanics and designs like crazy with the only really fun and unique one being the level where you move your base around in space on a mobile platform (even though this being an AIR UNITS mission made it kind of pointless)
>While the protoss mission is good in the finale the Terran one is an utter rehash of the final mission of WoL and the zerg mission, while climatic, suffers from the same problems as the zerg campaign, namely that all you do is a-click swarms and micro-manage Kerrigan

Piss off.
As for the rest of your drivel, anything can sound shitty if you simplify and strawman the fuck out of all those subjects.
Mind you, I am not saying that LotV had a great story, or even a good one, merely that it was way better than that of WoL not to mention that god awful abomination that is the HotS story.
>>344043818
you made your own argument to refute and then somehow act butthurt and offended.
SC2 story is trash, LotV is fucking awful storywise, but at least they have decent mission design. And if devs are willing to put effort into SP, why not, but Bliz obviously aren't.
I really hope you're trolling and not one of those "the most beautiful love story on earth" people.

>>344043661
I think the lore explanation for the visual change is that the loss of Aiur and the subsequent battling against the zerg prompted the protoss to beef up their personal armor
>>344044165
Nigger, where did I say SC2 story was good?
I merely said that LotV had a better story than the other parts of SC2's story.
WoL and HotS are irredeemable shite, whereas LotV is sorta okish in comparison. It doesn't retcon and rape the lore of the protoss like HotS did with the Zerg, it has decent characters, and it also revisits many of the places of SC1 and Brood War during the campaign.
Artanis is also pretty good protagonist, in comparison to that "muh Kerrigan" Hollywood one liner spouting asshat Raynor is in WoL, or the "Still totally irredeemably evil bitch who dindu nuffin" Kerrigan which we had to endure in HotS.
Really, the best way to gauge the shittiness of SC2's story is by checking how heavily Kerrigan is involved in any given part of it.
LotV has the least of Kerrigan, (outside of that retarded epilogue at least), and coincidentally, is easily better and more bearable than the other parts of SC2's story.
Also, this smug edgy bastard was easily the best character in whole of SC2.

>I was a big fan of 'good' RPG maps
Same.
Defense maps were good, too. Poker Defense was the GOAT at this.
Is the SC2 custom map scene still completely dead? Haven't played in years.
>>344044875
>Least of Kerrigan
Except you play as her in several missions. And she joins you. Unlike in WoL. In WoL they mostly mention her, but she kinda does her own thing until you trap her. In LotV you defend her bases, use her as a hero, play as her, defend her, she directly addresses your characters in dialogue, she's a centrepiece of the story and the biggest plot device, etc.
By your own standards LotV is worse than WoL.
If I have to listen to the dribble from the same writers of LotV, I will take as least as possible. Make 5 extra missions with minimal dialogue instead.
Also Artanis is stupid as fuck and writers missed all their marks when they tried to bring up themes. Did you notice the game had a strong theme of classes in society?
>>344045129
Element RPG was my favorite. Lot of the super fun creative ones like Can you do 25 tricks were great too.
>>344045606
Terran marine survival and Elements TD.
>>344045070
Damn, tried doing it for Protoss, but couldn't.
Like the non-Artanis Scout evaded me.

SC1 perfectly captures that space frontier feel and the progress of humanity in the universe while SC2 sounds like generic sci-fi fanfare with some country spliced into it.
>>344044875
>Also, this smug edgy bastard was easily the best character in whole of SC2.
Loved his back and forth with Artanis, such a dominating presence that even the games protagonist is often reduced to a cringing manservant in his presence.
>>344045881
Gotta spruce it up for the generic people they want to cash on.
>>344045606
What was Element rpg?
You were like 4 people and you picked one of four types of wizards?
Dark Templar - Illusionist
High Templar - Sorcerer
Kerrigan - ?
? - ?
Something like that?
It used custom spells in the corner, moving a civilian onto beacons.
I think the high templar had a mass psionic storm that covered the screen and the dark templar hade an invincibility spell.
back in the day I was the only one left alive and died as the high templar.
Then post-wc3:tft I returned to it and beat it with Dark Templar.
Same map maker had a sequel of sorts which came out in 2009 so I went ahead and played that one as well.

Imagine
Just imagine
Imagine how it would be, you being a puny terran marine, and infront of you, you have a full energy, a very mad very insane Dark Archon, and it wants you dead
Now imagine how painful it would be when he's sucking and draining your soul through your eyes with it's stare
How it feel to have your mind burn
I imagined this scenario when I was a young kid
It was one of my worst nightmares I ever had
>Defend the Temple, Break the Condom, Strip Kerrigan, Hostage Negotiator, 007 Arena, The Thing, DBZ All Sagas, D&D, Strip Kerrigan, High School RPG, Helms Deep, all those various RPG's with more detail and content than your average AAA title
What a time to be alive.
>>344045881
Starcraft 1 music is great, zerg, terran and protoss songs.
In sc2 I do like this track though:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dssNa11htIM&ab_channel=v0
starting at 1:24
Makes me think of the only fun custom game experience I had in sc2.
Star Carnage, basically AoS+Asteroids.
AoS closer to the BattleTanks/BattleShips variety, but no auto attack.
controlled the ship with WASD, on death you lost everything except your cash, you bought new ships, guns and such.
You could capture a flag in the enemy base, bring it back to your base to damage the enemy base.
Just flying around with WASD felt so good. Especially when I managed to outmaneuver an enemy battlecruiser and got shoot down his tail.
among some asteroids.
>>344045968
Blizzard makes best edgy characters
Pretty much the only thing I liked from LotV

>Line up a huge column of siege tanks and missile turrets
>Absolutely destroy the zerg when they arrive
>Kerrigan somehow still gets captured
Fuck off
>>344046423
no worry, kid. Just stim, stutterstep and hope for the best
>>344045129
Diplomacy maps were nice.
Diplomacy Africa and Diplomacy Europe.
Buildings in unit covered the map, belonging to a semi active neutral faction.
In the corner you walked into maybe a mineral named "Mali" with a civilian, now you got all the units belonging to the nation and you hade the unique Mali unit.
I think Malis tanks were replaced with strong reavers by trigger, and you could get new unique units if you conquered the correct control points.
War for the Ring map was great in starcraft.
It wasn't bad in wc3, but I don't think it had the audience to really take off in the same way.
The thing was cool. Starship trooper.
Various rpg maps. Open rpg maps were a lot of fun. Just starting with one unit, and eventually building your own base.
I prefer Sols ORPG in wc3 though.and rp maps
>>344046716
>At the end of an infested terrans duration it manages to regain enough willpower to gruesomely take it's own life with a rifle shot to the head
Damn that's pretty brut-
>Now watch it happen a comedic 500 times because that's how many of them you spawned and they all do the same animation
So close Blizzard, so close to not fucking it up.

I always built a 'warrior' school
I 'made' my marines, zealots, firebats, ghosts attack 'eachother' by attacking an burrowed infested terran infront of them both
I remenber doing entire formations of 'training' 'fighting' zealots, preparing for battle
>>344046483
> all those various RPG's with more detail and content than your average AAA title
Alone in the Dark, Resident Evil, etc all used special hex-edited StarEdit program to over-write specific map tiles so you could get a "low ground" and a "high ground" tile immediately next to one another without the transitional tiles between that normal StarEdit would force.
This community-hacked StarEdit version also had various mission triggers that the original didn't (but existed in the single player campaign) as well as the ability to corrupt the map in a specific way so that it could only be read by the game and not the editor -- effectively "protecting" the map from edits.
Which was certainly useful, given how often you'd play some tactical-based game like Bunker Wars, and the 'player 1' position would have cheated in 10k minerals for themselves.

This was the months after launch and it worked great on that map.
Top down wasd controlled.
A+D for rotating.
It was like playing Asteroids but as an AoS.
I haven't played since then because the shitty lobby system made the game impossible to play after a while because our game with 5 people in it was listed after dussins of pages of empty games since it hadn't been played during the last hour.

Not really.
The hero high templar on that map only appeared with aldaris photo as a trigger.
In the editor there's no Aldaris among the protoss hero units.
>>344046125
Element RPG was the the one where you could choose to be avatars of water, fire, wind, spirit, or dark usually and they were all different units that progressed and "evolved" differently based on the XP you get. At final stages you need to do trials where you fight 3 of your higher forms to evolve again.
Speaking of that evolves and MTG were great mass attack games.
>>344045571
Except the story in LotV no way centers around Kerrigan, unlike that of WoL.
You encounter her in one map, where you use both her and artanis as heroes, and she is also present on the next mission.
The only thing she serves in LotV is to be the "purity of essence" on Ulnar. After those two missions, she fucks off, and is not seen again until the epilogue, which isn't a part of LotV campaign anymore.
In LotV, Kerrigan is to Artanis basically what Zeratul was to Raynor in WoL. A side character that serves a single function, and then fucks off.
And while you never control Kerrigan in WoL, she is the underlying focus of the whole campaign, and is present in it from the second fucking mission onward. She is far bigger part of WoL than she is of LotV.
>Also Artanis is stupid as fuck and writers missed all their marks when they tried to bring up themes.

No, in fact, there was an 'Aldaris' unit in NOT the scenario editor, but in an advanced map creator, SCMdraft

Heroes like Aldaris, Dugalle, Mensk, Raszagal were heroes from SCMdraft, they were very special, and they couldnt be spawned on the original map editor

The one I'm talking about.
HELMS FUCKIN' DEEP SON
>>344049285
Hours?
More like days and weeks.
>>344049257
I remember the old days of making maps with that star edit.
I made a pretty cool Doom map based on doom 3. Had stuff like hydras being imps and goons mancubi, mutas as cacodemons and such. I remember I put in basic game and location/spawn triggers and even had a weapon swap system where when your unit approached another unit "weapon" you turn to that unit and can swap as you will because your current unit will get moved to another part of the map with a swappable beacon.
The BFG was a Archon and yhe final boss was the Guardian (a Torrasque). I made that map when I was like 14 or something. Good times. Good good good times.
>>344048209
That portrait always weirded me out. Tassadar looks so completely different to every other protoss, even in the cutscene Tass doesn't look like that. I assumed that he was wearing a skull mask or something.
I was kind of dissapointed that Protoss looked so samey in SC2, each individual of them in SC1 looked wildly different.
>>344049732
In SCMdraft, I tried to make a horror themed rpg
It would start in a snow forest map, walking UNDER the woods, so you effectively couldnt see jackshit where you were going
Once you finally arrive in a facility, poblated with hostile DTs and infested Terrans, in which they will 1 hit you (to made it fair, I gave plenty of 'hints', like you enter in a room full of dead marines, if you keep walking in you would be greteed by an infested marine)
Then you escape from said facility, and you need to make a run with a slow vulture through the snow world, avoiding getting mauled by the wildlife of the planet
Also your character is a civilian, so no way to defend yourself or fight back
Surviving was only based on your wits and instincs
>>344049829
What are you talking about m8?
His portrait is pretty much the same as his cinematic appearance.

Anyone ever play whos the killer?
Pretty simple map, 10 people or so all get a civilian to move around the installation tileset map filled with hallways, doors, stairs, platforms but one player at random gets a DT as well. He's the killer and uses that DT to kill everyone within 15 or 20 mins or something. If after that time he hasn't killed everyone, people then vote with colored beacons who the killer was. All the while there's all chat and mind games and since its a DT you could actually see him coming. Man that was a fun map.

Anyone remember that map golems? You'd put civs on beacons in random orders to try and get good combos for units. Was kind of like evolves in a way.
>>344051372
2 civs on every beacon at once to create a godly archon golem
Aw yeah
>>344051321
Well, desu that ain't exactly the first time Kerrigan just shows up out of the blue, with no explanation given.
She did that all the time in SC1 and especially in BW.
Not that I am defending that bs. I hated Kerrigan even back in BW.
>>344039643
ASSAH DIDI MAHARDEE
>>344051353
Face the fleet
Battlecruisers are easily countered by goliats, massed turrets, and then totally fucked up by Ghost lockdown
Yes, 1 nuking ghost sneaking in your base is easy to deal with if you have a few scans, spider mines, turrets and defensive siege tanks
But 1 mistake
Only 1 fucking mistake
And your whole base is a goner

God damn hated dealing with those fucking ghosts and their bullshit.
Battlecruisers are easier to counter. Just get ghosts yourself, and research lockdown. Or get a bunch of wraiths or goliaths, and fuck em up with shittons of missiles.
Can you stop 1 unit?

You can probably guess what eventually happened
>>344052051
it's the same more or less. You can download it from your battle.net account online granted you assigned your CD key to it already.
otherwise, installing SC(and CD key) and then BW and then connecting to battle.net multiplayer like in the old days should be fine.
>>344048721
>using strategy in a strategy game
>not playing the game
>>344051553
Yeah, but they went ahead and said the rift made it impossible for communication to go in or out, so while her popping into missions in SC1 can be justified, showing up to the temple without using the keystone just seems 100% impossible and demands explanation.
>>344052206
You got 1 shoted?
>>344052195
>THAT FUCKING STUPID PLAYER THAT SPAMMED CARRIERS ON THIS MAP
Yo that was me. I still had Maelstrom and stasis though but other than a dark archon and 2 arbs, the rest of my force was all Carriers, u mad?
>Play 7v1 comp stomp
>Yellow player starts massing carriers near your base
Do you trust him?
>>344052331
I forgot what RPG it was exactly but we were young and it wasn't quite planned out well. He seiges up to take out buildings and I was attacking said buildings so yeah, one shotted. Hell of an oversight back then.
>>344052391
Burn his base to the ground
Just in case
>>344052391
I always was the one who was right next to the comp and basically nuked a path from the back in.
It was like the ultimate backdoor and more times than not worked when all 6 other players were keeping it busy in the front and middle.
>>344052356
Yes I will be fucking mad when the map hits the unit limit and spells doesnt work anymore
Imagine my frustration when I, a terran player, tried to lockdown or EMP an incoming unit, but the spell missile doesnt spawn, since the map is capped
Or when my siege tanks and goliats wont fire at all
Yes, fuck you, you should get banned from that map
>>344051723

>>344051353
Take out the labs, slow down the gamespeed in the next mission, and save a ton of your base from being wiped out. Proceed to stack ungodly amounts of siege tanks and missile turrets on the high ground and vaporize any ghost that tries to get in range for a nuke. Easy to work up to battlecruisers and carve a path through the Dominion.

>He is just so utterly done in by his peoples butt-fuck retarded caste-system muh ancient traditions council judgement bullshit.
Exactly.
The above makes me think that the fags who complain about LotV having the protoss move on from their traditions, and caste systems etc never played SC1, seeing how that game started the whole fucking theme with the protoss.
SC1 protoss campaign was all about Tassadar, and his followers abandoning the traditions of their empire in order to save Aiur, and BW continued with that theme.
LotV having the same theme present makes total fucking sense.
>>344053403
Don't forget the Dragoons also in a 1:1 scale...

SC1 custom games get unfairly overshadowed by WC3 so much. So many gems that never made it over, a true relic of the late 90s/early 00s. I was just thinking about Grocery Store Wars and Dynasty Warriors maps yesterday.

I loved RP maps when you got actually cool, competent people. The other 99% of the time it's a fucking nightmare. I'd spend twenty minutes making towns, renaming every building, raising and lowering them with keybinds to make them all mesh, set up civilian patrol routes so the city looked lived in, everything.
Then when I'm done I look at the rest of the map and it's a bunch of other players all with one unit that one-shots everything, has 999 armour and a retarded name with no capitals.
Fuck those niggers.

When Blizzard made it their life goal to make the gaming experiences of one specific person absolutely miserable and created a highly intricate plan where they would only nerf said persons class/race and would instruct their forum personal to deliberately slight, ignore and insult said individuals every post no matter how logical, insightful and thought-provoking they may be.
And don't even get me started on the way Blizzard craftily only used pop culture references the player wouldn't understand and therefore not notice when playing their old games before switching solely to pop culture references we now know about and thus find obtuse and immersion shattering.
They have much to answer for.
>i love you sarge!
Fucking Blizzard forcing their gay propaganda REEEEEEEEEE
>>344057769
I think the story of Raynor and Kerrigan isn't bad because of that.
I think it's bad because Raynor does the impossible a million times and burns the fucking stars to make her human again and she just goes back to zerg in a day.
At least have him say "meh" and bang her as a zerg for gods sake...
