C'mon now. Any game they make before SC2 will be percieved to be made "instead of" SC2. I think the concept is a solid one, with a very large and imaginative backdrop for the game, namely the Warcraft universe.

However, I also think that the game is very low poly, a fact that is partially hidden by Blizzard's texturing genius. No biggie though, MMORPGs are not known for thier top-of-the-line graphics anyways, though upcomming games are challenging that notion.

It's the reason I haven't got into SWG, besides the bugs of course.

Me can't wait.

The graphics do look low poly, but with the odd designs ( bent houses and stuff ) plus the gorgeous textures, that gives the game a very nice cartoon feeling.
