RE: StarCraft 2 Beta

Just to nitpick, Starcraft didn't actually have hand-drawn units. They were all 3D models rendered to sprites. They probably would have been more readable if they were hand drawn. Ever tried to figure out what part of a Zealot is what? Laughing

RE: StarCraft 2 Beta

Actually, Starcraft units weren't hand-drawn. They were still renderings of 3D models; however, they were so small and their colors were reduced to ridiculously low numbers.

But you want cartoony? Here's cartoony. Laughing

RE: StarCraft 2 Beta

Oh lol I was always under the impression they were hand-drawn. Yeah I agree that some of the models were hard to read, but I'm glad they didn't use their original plan for graphics.

RE: Diablo III

Have you seen that thread somewhere that complains that Diably III looks exactly like World of WarCraft?  They took a screenshot of a candelabrum from both games and they look identical.  I'm sure that, as we've seen with SCII already, they'll be fixing all that long before they release.

I don't mean to be negative about everything.  In my opinion, Blizzard has never made a disappointing game and is one of the world's premier developers.  I'm just not super impressed with the pre-release stuff we've been seeing.  With high quality come high expectations!

Starcraft 2



Well, it's finally here! I am suprised Stasis hasn't made a post about this one yet. Of course, I am sure he forgot about this thread entirely, so we'll forgive him. For now.
