Fortunately for my wallet, I don't give a flying fuck about Starcraft!

I hope something similar doesn't happen to Diablo 3, since I am truly excited for that game :<

I also hope this doesn't interfere with D3's launch schedule, assuming it was going to happen sometime in the next two years anyway.

This seems to be the way of things. Split up the game so many ways that you can charge people for something as simple as the ability to play as a red man instead of a blue man.

I wish I could find the positive in this.

A game so nice you buy it thrice.

This seems like a bad idea on many different levels. This will probably push back Diablo 3 even further into the void of time. Although, I don't think people should whine about it, especially if they bought Warhammer 40K: Dawn of War and all of it's expansions...

Plus they said it'll flesh out each race a lot more. The Terran set alone has 30 missions for them.

I'd say it's a neat gimmick. Plus they'll just put out a box set when they all come out and you could get em that way.

30 Missions for one race...man that´s gotta be so damn boring...those 12 or 15 Units are good for maybe 12-15 Missions...but 30? Way too many. Somebody on another forum mentioned that those missions are there to teach you how to use the different units. I never understood this. All Missions in RTS-Games are scripted and don´t require anything else but a specific tactic for that special Scenario, so how are you supposed to learn anything for multiplayer?

To get back to the topic...3 games instead of one suck. Get your shit together and release that stupid game, Blizzard.

Looks like the plan is to get two friends, each of you buy a different copy, and pirate the shit out of it.

darkvare · #10

or just do the pirating thing to be honest i only care about protos

Actually you won't even be able to have your friends get the others because they are coming out in a 3 year span

I have a rather un-Blizzard-esque picture in my head somehow.

"Guys, how´s the Campaign coming along?"

-"Excellent, why do you ask, you played it just yesterday"

"I know, just wanted to know about the Zerg campaign, since the one you gave me just had the Terrans, y´know?"

-"The Ze...but the Terr...but...and...OH SHIT! FUCK! The Protoss! What YEAR is it???"

"Don´t tell me..."

-"No, you tell ME! It´s NOT 2004 anymore, right?! Verdammte Mistscheisse! And we just have 30 Terran-Missions!? What now?"

"Calm down, we´ll think of something."

And we all know the result. Stupid episodic Bullshit.
