Starcraft II Bombshell

I'd be fine with them trying to sell the same game with different mission three times, but they shouldn't have divided up the races like this. For many people, the campaigns do serve a tutorial purpose, especially those that weren't initially planning on multiplayer, but end up getting into it afterwards.

I think Blizzard has become addicted to the WoW cashflow. Between this and the microtransactions for D3, it looks like they are exploring ways to drain the wallets of people that won't commit to subscriptions. Being Blizzard, they will probably get away with it.

Very well said, Foxbat. I pre ordered SC II in early spring. I loved how the first SC game allowed me to learn each of the three factions by the time the game was over. As a tutorial, Single Player was very well done in the crawl, walk, trot, run, sprint method of teaching/training.

Then we had all of those custome games in the SP, as well as more maps on line as people tried their hands at map building.

Darnit, thirty missions per race? Uh, can we say GRIND here? Three games? Ya mean I don't get to be a Zerg from day one if I want to? :( Not that I want to, of course . . .

I worry that I'll develop a deadly addiction to siege tanks, and have to break it, again, by the time part II comes out. Grrrrrrrrrrrrr.

@ Jester: it seems that they had both of us "at hello." :D

We pre ordered shortly after the announcement and videos came out. My son and I were salivating even then . . .
