This is a pretty great game, but if I had any one complaint about starcraft II it's that there's too many goddamn units in the campaign, and more than a few of them aren't worth using. At all. Also, most of the game is hilariously easy, with the sole exception of the last map which I had to retry twelve times, because [spoiler]Kerrigan Kills: 28, SEISMIC ACTIVITY, NYDUS WORMS APPROACHING[/spoiler]
The mission before the last mission, you get a choice between killing air units or killing ground units. I killed air units. I regretted this decisions
immensely.
So, Blizzard is saying that [spoiler]the Zerg campaign continues where Wings of Liberty left off, and has you playing as Kerrigan and building a Zerg empire[/spoiler], but I'm told that [spoiler]by the end of Wings of Liberty, Kerrigan has been turned back into a human thanks to, uh, space magic or something[/spoiler]. How do these reconcile?
This is actually pretty obvious.
[Spoiler]Kerrigan is clearly not fully human when the Xel'Naga artifact goes off at the end of Wings of Liberty. She still had head tentacles, her skin is still somewhat mottled, and her eyes are... a bit off.
At one point in the campaign you do some missions with Zeratul that explain why Kerrigan exists in the first place, and what the real purpose of the Zerg and the Xel'naga is. Turns out the Overmind created Kerrigan to free the swarm from the Xel'Naga. She's sort of a loophole in the genetic coding that allows the Xel'Naga to control their race. I'm guessing that the Xel'Naga artifact has simply made Kerrigan more human than zerg.
I'm guessing the Zerg campaign will focus on the now-more-human Kerrigan attempting to gain control of the leaderless Zerg, and building up an empire to stand against the Xel'Naga when the time is right. I'm also expecting some really satisfying revenge missions on Korhal. Arcturus really has it coming.
BTW, did anyone think the doublecross at the end was kind of stupid, since they gave it away in the opening cinema? It's not like anybody though Tychus was going to turn out to be an alright guy.[/spoiler]
So, is Matt Horner supposed to be the terran commander from Starcraft? I've been racking my brain trying to figure it out, since Raynor talks about him like he was there all along, and it's the only goddamn thing that makes any sense.
