Unless you're transferring them you aren't really microing your SCVs, ever. They're very 'set and forget'

Purge the Unclean! The protoss have been good buds with us for a while and Hansen's ability to create a cure is spurious at best. The fact that she actually succeeds in the other path is extraneous. As someone else said it's so ridiculously saccharine it's silly

There's two or three mission plotlines that all unlock following missions in their sequence, you can blitz one path and finish it before the others, or unlock a unit on one path that makes another path's missions a complete joke. For instance most of the missions assume that you don't have Vikings so you can do terrible things to the AI that don't have counters to said unit in their spawn routine.

Veloxyll posted:Given their casualty rates, Starship Troopers would be more like Guardsmen. But they don't shoot glowlights so the comparison breaks down there. Well in Starship Troopers 3, Milsec discovers this strange new thing known as "religion" and cranks the empire of humanity dial up to 10. It's also not a very good movie.

Hel's Angels, Ripwave Missiles, Hive Mind Emulator. Advanced medic facilities isn't worth it in a world where tech reactors exist. evilmiera posted:Which is actually a bit sad, because you can look like a group of badasses or at the very least, distinct. I liked the older orcs for instance because instead of rooting for whichever one you felt was most good, you'd wonder how they would screw over their enemies or allies next. And Metzen breaks his own rule as far as the burning legion is concerned. But only *some* of the demons. He did some weird handwaving with the eredar that confused a bunch of people.

The "Canon" of Wings of Liberty according to the devs is Breakout, Safe Haven, and Belly of the Beast. Of course since they've also stated that the players choices will always be respected Hanson won't be showing up anymore in an of the games. Kind of hard to do that when you die in the twitter campaign leading up to Heart of the Swarm Kurieg fucked around with this message at 17:25 on Jan 12, 2015 |

The Draenei thing is one of those "I said he was corrupted by demons, but not which demons" things combined with unreliable narrator. It's still a believable plotline it's just confusing as to what actually happened. The Kerrigan thing is so amazingly stupid and the only reason the Overmind's plan works at all is because about fifteen different contrivances all just happen to fall together over this game and the next.

Neruz posted:Except that no he totally said it was the Eredar who corrupted Sargeras; its right there in the manual. He just outright forgot and he's even admitted it. Well still, it's not a plan that requires about 5 different factions that have no idea about the greater overarching plan all doing the correct things at the correct time. With a some amount of meddling from Zeratul to be sure but I'm pretty sure Mengsk, Nova, and Valerian didn't have their fairy god-protoss telling them what to do. Though Metzen saying "I Forgot, sorry" is a miracle in and of itself.

Neruz posted:Yeah, Terrans evolved naturally and remember they all got tinkered with by a mad scientist as well and as a result are unstable as all hell, he's used to working with nice clean Zerg genetics which have been carefully honed and trimmed of extraneous uselessness over the ages. His comments on Abominations are hilarious because he knows they're hideously inefficient he just doesn't want to waste time on making them better.

Cythereal posted:I doubt it on the simple reason that I can't see Blizzard killing one of their two female characters who get any kind of story prominence. Blizzard in general has an atrocious record when it comes to female characters and doubly so when it comes to their outfits and character design, but I don't think they'll kill one of the only two female characters in WoW who casual players probably know. According to her book she almost did. But on the other hand we have Sylvannus, who is mustache twirlingly evil what with her human farms and the Rape of Gilneas. But everyone is obnoxiously blind to that fact simply because otherwise the horde would lose a player race. VVV The fact that she's and Kalec are an item now probably helps.

"I love it when a plan comes together" is an easter egg you get when you exceed the necessary zerg kills by a bunch. And I really hate Selendis' line in this mission. "If only we had known how important Kerrigan was!" Sounds like something you'd get out of a bad fanfic, or one of the early Wesley centric episodes of TNG.

The developers are quoted as saying that it came down to a dichotomy of "staying true to the existing lore" or "Advancing Kerrigan's Story" and they went with the latter.

Predators used to be a multiplayer unit too, but they were removed because they were basically good against zerglings and only zerglings in a world where hellions exist.

Cythereal posted:I'm fond of a mech heavy strategy in the WoL campaign, so I usually opt for science vessels. They're very handy for some upcoming missions. There's one mission later on that's basically purpose built for "you should have science vessels by now". Without it it's a slog involving numerous trips back to the SCV pit.

it's more that swarm queens don't need to inject larvae, Hatcheries can go up to 7 larvae naturally and generate them as fast as a fully microed hatchery with queens.
