"Success" has little to do with perfection.Originally posted by DrSpike
Starcraft 2 will happen, probably after Diablo 3.
And WC3 is hugely successful by any reasonable metric. It sold bagloads. Sure some prefer the 'pure' RTS approach, but I think there is room for both. So do the 100,000s of active players almost 2 and a half years after release.
Additionally, the pro RTS circuit outside of South Korea focuses on WC3, and rightly so, till SC2 comes out.
Everyone I know, whether they like WC3 or not, tends to hold StarCraft in higher regard.Rethink Refuse Reduce Reuse

I hear you on that. But come on now, there is a world of difference between this statement, and the implication of your original statement that I took issue with:Originally posted by General Ludd

Sure some (like you) will always prefer Starcraft, and that's fine, but most reasonable players (like me) like both, and appreciate what Blizzard added to the genre in WC3. In my experience nearly all WC3 players who were the right age were SC addicts. And, as I said, the game has received acceptance in the pro community (though you might not have been aware of this) and has been very successful under a wide range of definitions.Originally posted by General Ludd
I don't think they could ever live up to the original, anyways. There's no way they could make such a perfect game again... especially if you consider what WarCraft 3 turned out to be.

If i still want to keep playing after ive done with the included campaigns, I might try that. Of course there are included scenarios as well (I think) and i might want to try SP skirmish. As i found with AOE, theres plenty of replayability in one of these games if its well done, even without MP. Of coure AOE may have been emulating SC in that respect."A person cannot approach the divine by reaching beyond the human.

Age of Empires predates Starcraft, If I remember correctly.
EDIT: Seems that Starcraft was in 98 and AoE 97, afterall. I was pretty certain it was released afterwards though, for some reason. *shrug*Rethink Refuse Reduce Reuse

I tried Starcraft, AoE and AoK. They didn't keep my attention too long. I don't really know why. Maybe they're not epic enough for my tastes. But if you ask me, Starcraft is definitively the better game. Imo, it has more depth than AoE or AoK.
Blizzard is also working on Ghost, a console game based on the Starcraft universe. At first, they delegated the project to another developer. But they weren't satisfied with what they were doing so decided to do it themselves.Let us be lazy in everything, except in loving and drinking, except in being lazy – Lessing

It's probably because the face of AOE is AOE2, which was much bigger MP than AOE, and came after SC.Originally posted by General Ludd

Starcraft was the best on-line RTS multiplayer game I ever played (but then that isn't saying much given I can't recall playing any other RTS on-line games). If they made Starcraft 2 I would buy it pending no bad reviews.One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.
