Even though I'd love that, I don't think it'll end up being good. Ocarina of Time should be left alone! It is a classic that deserves to keep its value.
That's pretty awesome actually! There's a lot to tell about the Protoss and other races! =)
I can imagine some people feeling screwed over, because I'm pretty sure a lot used their keys just so it was put to use. Then again, if Blizzard had already told about this, do you know how many people would've held back on activating it?
This makes things a whole lot more interesting! Not only does it open up the beta to even more people, but it also gives people a higher chance of obtaining a key! Awesome, Blizzard!
I'm starting to like the Zerg more and more. I love the concept of building an army really fast and overwhelming your enemy. I might even abandon the Terrans after the Beta... ^_^ Who knows?
Great interview. I'm hoping all this news means the beta is coming soon, that would be awesome!
"That's one small step for man; one giant leap for StarCraft II"
I sure hope Blizzard will allow that, on the other hand, it's a closed beta. So I'm pretty sure you can activate it only once. Too bad.
Ouch, this is not good news for people who want the beta, but don't yet have a good PC, including myself. I'm upgrading in June, what if they release the beta before then? O.O I'll be screwed!
MadWorld didn't do well at its release perhaps, but by now the game has almost sold 200.000 units. That's quite something, especially when you consider it didn't release in Japan!! So people should stop whining about hardcore games and the Wii. House of the Dead: Overkill sold well eventually and so will MadWorld, The Conduit and any other hardcore game.
Great interview. I love the dedication and hard work, it definitely shows.
I don't think it's the SCII beta either, but I'm keeping my hopes up! ^_^
I partly agree with you, even though SCII can fail to live up to its hype, I do think it has the potential to become the best RTS ever. Not only because of the quality Blizzard can deliver, but also because of the amazing balance, gameplay possibilities and endless replay value due to Blizzard's never-ending support!
I definitely wouldn't say that. Not only because it's an entirely different RTS, but also because SCII will be the best RTS ever! ;-) (Unless people return to SC in a week, which I can imagine happening.) =P
It's TOTALLY different than SCII, but that's exactly the thing makes Demigod stand out in a wasteland filled with bad RTS-games.
Good read! I love Demigod so far! ^_^ It's one of the best RTS-games I've played in a long time. I was dying for something new and challenging. Oh boy, Demigod didn't let me down! The small RPG-elements make it a very polished and balanced game. Rook FTW!
I smell 100 liters of milk... When is this madness ever going to end?! Stop making useless accessories that'll be used once and collect dust afterwards!
Man, this game could rock our worlds. And the name is just... How do you call such a thing? =P Out of this world! How are they going to fit that on the box? xD
This is just...odd? I don't know, this might cause trouble.
Those are some great features right there. I think the APM mode will be crucial for skilled players, as it will allow them to polish their techniques and keep track of their progress. Great work, Blizzard. So keep it up!
