FUCK OFF BLIZZARD.

"At BlizzCon 2008, it was announced by Blizzard's VP of Game Design, Rob Pardo, that StarCraft II would ship as a game with two follow up expansions, provisionally entitled Wings of Liberty, Heart of the Swarm and Legacy of the Void respectively for the Terran, Zerg and Protoss factions. Blizzard states that the game and each expansion will feel like a "full" game. No release dates were announced for the trilogy."

Oh how fucking nice. So instead of paying for ONE game we have to pay for THREE now.

Fuck off, Blizzard. just... fuck... off. I've officially lost ANY trace of respect I had for you. Way to make me stop anticipating what could have potentially been a bloody awesome game.

I'm sure some people will still buy it in spite of how retarded the whole idea is. Blizzard's 'Rationale' for this, of course, is that making it THREE games rather than ONE will allow them to make everything MOAR EPIC and shove in moar cinematics and moar missions and moar crapm and that every campaign will feel like a full-blown game on its own right or bullshit like that. Well, you know, sometimes, more is less. I wouldn't mind delays if it meant one whole awesome game, but like fuck am I paying for three games when I should only be paying for one.

And Blizzard can go to hell. Officially.

There's no source that contradicts this as they HAVE been working on the multiplayer rather than on the single-player aspects.

Still. I'm not going to indulge them with the illusion i support their money-whorage. That is not to say I don't intend to play the game at some point... But one wonders how much will each installment cost. >>;

What I want to know is how the flying fuck can they even MAKE a WarCraft 4. You know, with the canon being raped to death and scrambled to oblivion by MMORPGishness. >>;
