I don't have the Dark Templar books so I almost want to win seconds...

Boring. Make the game bigger. Bigger maps. More coincidences in fighting. I`m tired of playing advanced chess.
I`ve played this game one year now and I`m on top of my league.
But when they made the game they probably thought: "why change a winning formula.
Let us make hd graphics with a couple of new units."

More chance/coincidences would really ruin the game. Especially since a big portion of the game is the e-sports scene which want it to be more about skill and less about luck already as it is.

Bigger maps though - I'm all for that. Glad they scrapped so many of the tiny ones and brought in things like Tal'darim Altar.

If you make one mistake you will loose for sure. You either go all out or build balanced. On higher divisions that is. I want more to happen. You have too much control. Hard to explain. Random elements in the map would be nice, but I know it would ruin the original gameplay. Then again I want something different.

I hate some of the maps because they force you to do specific things, it looks like "optional strategy" but you have to do certain things in a certain order or you get pwned. Same thing over and over again.

That strategy is what blizzard is all about look at their track record with wow.

Because Tychus Findlay and Jim Raynor were such well-developed, compelling characters in Starcraft 2.

...

*sigh*

I'm done. I just can't even muster the will to care anymore.

i think these articles are misleading. wings of liberty is literally dead. so is heart of the swarm. Blizzard moved everything over to Legacy of the Void. if someone can let me know how to play wings of liberty or HOTS, let me know.
