You know, I read a lot of people upset at the story, and I can't help but think that it's all over blown.
It's a free campaign guys, not a commerical product. Constructive criticizm is one thing, but no need to go around angrily venting like a child.
That said, I can't deny some of the complaints have merit. Command being the bad guys sets up a great second chapter, but at the same time makes them look like idiots.
As for the vishans and shivans, I like that someone at least tried to put into context the shivans and there purpose, even IF it didn't make a great deal of sense.And besides, the Vishans ships look cool as hell.
Now that being said, one issue that I don't get is the whole "Shivans turned into pussies" grip.
Is it just me, or does the thought of the dante returning backed up by about 50 Juggernauts and a couple dozen destoryers not fill everyone with terror. Dont' forget, these are the guys who super novaed capella. I doubt they will take the Vishauns actions lying down. My money would be on the shivans coming back in full force saying "Guess what. The concioul can go screw itself" Not in that terminology but, something to that effect.
Over all, I liked Blue planet and enjoyed it
, and hope to see the second chapter soon.
