"Throughout history, man has competed against another in the fierce arena of the sports world. Ranging from the ancient Greece Olympics to the modern day Superbowl, humans seem to have a love of these games played at professional levels. They offer us entertainment, competition, and a sense of team or player loyalty."
Leading domestic game companies have entered into an unprecedented competition to win orders for Starcraft, Blizzard's representative IP (intellectual property).
Weird MS is letting go of a good IP. I don’t mind it but hopefully the best dev wins and I’m not sure who that is outbid those.
What they are bidding for are exclusive rights to develop the IP. Microsoft/blizzard is essentially licensing it out to the highest bidder, not selling the IP.
I wonder if we'll see Starcraft Ghost come out of this. And if we do, I wonder if it'll be a free-to-play gacha game.
Given the potential developers, looks inevitable there will be free to play gacha versions. But given south korea’s love for starcraft there would be one that is inline with starcraft 1&2.
Might want to expect some sort of backdoor cheat that only south koreans know of lol 🤣
Even though fans have been clamoring for a StarCraft 3 for years now, it seems like Blizzard really has no reason to spend time making one.
They sort of ran the story as far as it could go.
Also, it seems like blizzard is more busy with mediocrity at this point in time.
The problem with Blizzard is they have franchises that don't need sequels. People are happy playing the games that they previously made. What they need is new games, none of this business of trying to transport the old audience into a new version of an old game which only ends up nickle and dime'ing users.
Illogical Games has just announced the official release of Star Discord, the one-man indie dev's charming StarCraft lookalike on mobile.
This was indeed very helpful
I think I've spent more time watching SC2 casts on Youtube than actually playing the game.
There is so much thinking, planning and studying in an RTS game. That's why I hope they never disappear.
wow just come off of playing a few rounds on Starcraft n its the most recent story here :P
2-3 months ago I didnt really care for it at all and then I saw a few pro matches n had to try n now I'm playing it all the time fighting through the Bronze league :D
