But Raynor is a terrible, terrible character and I'm amazed they hung so much of the game's presentation and marketing around him.

It's a series of excuses to make something else happen in the game. I suspect they're happy to leave that to people more veteran in it. They don't want to get in the way of the game too much.Īlec: It's the Blizzard slickness thing - Jim Blandor and chums are there simply to progress things on, not to be genuinely compelling narrative creations. At the same time, I suspect that's almost the point. They're every scifi and western cliche compressed into one slightly haggard looking man.
That dialogue! These goddamn characters!Īlec: Bloody awful.
Quinns: As you mentioned in the chatroom, it's hard to think of an RTS that's transparently spent so much money on the single player. I'm playing missions to play the missions, not to see the next cutscene, and that's astonishgly rare in singleplayer RTS. Briefly though: It's good, innit?Īlec: Totally. I tried the last mission twice, failing both times. Quinns: I've actually started brushing up against my skill limit already. I've also been playing on Normal, not Hard. Which sounds like a lot, doesn't it? But I've probably unlocked barely a third of the Terran's armoury, and if the achievement list is anything to go by I'm about a fifth of the way through.Īlec: I'd guess I'm on about ten missions in, and yes, there any many robots yet to come. How much have you played of Crafting The Stars Chapter The Second? Where does it succeed? Where does it stumble? Does it really need the two additional parts currently in development? Alec and Quinns met in the RPS saloon for a chat.Īlec: Right, let's put our cocks on the table. Blizzard's über-RTS, StarCraft 2: Wings of Liberty is finally here, with its sprawling single player, imposing multiplayer and grand narrative aspirations.
