StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty

I am super bad at these. I even made an attempt to improve but it just wasn't going to happen. My brain and fingers just don't move fast enough.

It's fine as a followup to the original in terms of gameplay, maybe a little too unadventurous. The story and the cutscenes are terrible though, seems like with Warcraft III Blizzard became obsessed with rendering hair rather than anything else.

Wings of Liberty is another achievement in terms of RTS genre. The story, this time full of cliché, but is ambitious in it's own way, even if that way is less factional infighting and more Hollywood-laden tropes. The mechanics are stripped down by way of giving additional legs to the computer which is a sacrifice for the hardcore multiplayers but a welcome change for the casual like me. Wings of Liberty doesn't touch Brood War but it's still a great game in it's own right.

The story sucks but the singleplay is improved over the original. Multiplayer was initially enjoyable but rather quickly became a slog. Stripping battle.net of chat rooms and all of its old fun features made the ladder a cold, desolate, and antisocial activity. Brood War was a fluke; lightning rarely strikes the same spot twice.

Less fun than the original. Been there, done that. Next.

Despite the fact that I'm horrible at this game, it's a lot of fun. Didn't really fall far from the original StarCraft tree, but it didn't need to.
