yay! Most probably seen it, but whataya gonna do?

The Frozen Throne   kinda weak title.. meh  


anyways.. Makes you wonder, like why, unless they are going to make the Evles into something liek the demon red orcs, change them from High Elves to Bloodevles, guess they are out for blood now. Kool either way with me. :nod:

Still sad they don't have naval units in the game :( That was one of the cooler things about WC2 I thought.

so your post is supposed to draw negativity toward Blizzard/Warcraft? I thought this was a relatively positive discussion...

Hmm to get if remotely back on topic...

I still think it was a sorta bad decision for an RTS to be aimed at single player battle rather than Multiplayer. It's a strategy game, AIs aren't very strategical (usually) and SP encounters are usually too limited to be highly interesting.

RPG is probably a much better format for Blizzard's goal. (I think the RTS portion was simply to draw WC/RTS fans rather than for the interest of the game's content itself.)

Some of WC is interesting, though much of it seems cheesy.... as do most games with cutscenes using "real" actors

Are any actors ever real?

It's an MS product. That's almost enough to turn me off to it right there. I mean, hell- how do you manage to copy MacOS, and then make it WORSE???

*remembers nightmares of Wing Commander movie*

As for War Craft, I do think it'd make a great RPG, and that's why they are making Worlds of Warcraft, right? ... Now if they'd only put naval fleets back in the game :mad2:


Now that I think about it.. the thing I don't liek is that they are kinda trying to draw their story to a close it seems.. and it's making it a lot less "epic." I dunno.. it just doesn't seem as big a fight or as different a world as it did in Warcraft I , now with all the Scourge, and killing Archimonde and everything..

Ah yes, but I'm saying that the aim with WC3 would have been better with an RPG rather than RTS. A mid-way compromise seems untidy.

and that movie was...... *rips hair out*

at this pace I shall be bald eventually considering the number of bad movies

Wasn't it MS? Something called "Wing Commander" was, I had it on my computer for a while, and it didn't work.

Hmmm I think Starlancer was published by MS, and starlancer was related to wing commander in that one of the designers were the same or something.... some Roberts guy (Chris Roberts?)

That's the only MS relation I can think of... oh and Starlancer was helluva buggy as I've heard the thing could make itself unplayable halfway into the game or something.
