All in all very happy. Kinda saw it coming a mile away.. Also i like how a seemingly simple power like flight solved the problem. I did find the tease about the badguy next season a little TOO ungraceful but.. yeah.. ill keep watching.
Starcraft 2... lots to say about. Ryan and i had been talking about it during the whole week towards its announcement. Here in boston we have a saying about one of the red sox players "Manny being Manny"... this announcement is so very much "Blizzard being Blizzard" The FAQ is fucking hilariously misleading. particularly i like this quote.
"How many races are in StarCraft II? In StarCraft II, players will see the return of the Protoss, Terran, and Zerg races. "
Yeah.. thats not an answer... Does it mean we'll see the Xel' Naga... dunno. does it mean Blizzard is playing with our dicks... YES!
Also i like "When is the game coming out? At this point, it's too early to provide an initial estimate on the release date. As with all Blizzard games, we will take as much time as needed to ensure the game is as fun, balanced, and polished as possible."
Translation "your grandkids might get to play this game"
xel' naga are prolly better described in wikipedia.. but basically they are the ancient race that "dissappeared" that kinda inspired the Zerg and Protoss to be what they are "purity of mind"-protoss "purity of form"-Zerg
In the game all the temples and stuff you try to acquire (like the protoss temple mission where you try to purge the zerg from aiur) belong to the Xel' NAga. There is a secret mission where Duran is on his own looking for a Zerg/Protoss hybrid that hints that Duran himself might be Xel'Naga.
