    It is fun. It's just nothing like dwarf fortress. They are two very different kinds of fun.

    It just seems people are always talking about it being some kind of ridiculous hard. Or is that koreans?

    I don't know. My roommate is Korean but he only plays the first Starcraft constantly.

    The campaign is fun. I haven't played more than a few rounds of multiplayer. I plan to rectify this eventually.

    The game is really only hard in the aspect that there is pretty much always something you could be doing better, and that there is someone doing it better than you, and you might just be playing against him right fucking now. It's pretty simple to get into, and the league system will probably keep you playing against people about as good as you after a while.

    GUYS! Don't forget you can install the Public Test Realm found in your SC2 folder and get on to the beta of patch 1.2 and chat with dudes in chat channels.

    I believe the G&T dudes hang out in Pennyarcade and are actually cool dudes unlike most of G&T.

    SC is really one of those "easy to play, hard to master" games. With the addition of leagues it's really great for everyone, as we saw last night with rumble in the bronze, it can even be competitive for people who are just god awful.

    Yes, the image is large because it's an image of a large object.

    Just start applying SC to your university work and you'll be fine.

    Obey the golden rule of #fighting units > 0 when you need to fight.
    Sometimes when I'm really tired I forget to do this and just make drones. Surprising it doesn't always lose me the game.

    I've gotta ask, did you get Neville to find the person who did Raynor's voice and do the voicing for that?
