    I honestly think that the very first monologue with the Overmind in the original game is one of the best pieces of game writing ever

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vhr7sxE_5Ik#t=0m33s

    almost every sentence is in the imperative; he's bossing you around. and naturally the subject of all these imperative sentences is 'you,' so the thing really tries to draw you in. then when he's not throwing around commands, the other sentences are about him and the reasons he made you. he makes it fully clear that he is in charge here and you are a super important part of his plan.

    so in starcraft 2
    it's just super disappointing that they took away all of his authority and decided he was under something else's control

    all of his writing gave him a really compelling sense of authority and it's a shame that they've spoiled it with this hybrid

    but maybe i'm just bitching about things bein' too different

    good job sarakun and neville

    one of the things that I really like is all the content outside the missions
    in SC and BW, when I was playing the campaign I pretty much just went from mission to mission
    but now I find myself checking for any new goodies after each mission including new conversations

    I kinda get tired of spending so much time watching my hero man chit chat with losers on his ship
    I blame Mass Effect

    I haven't played through as much of the campaign as you have but I can tell you with 99% confidence that they don't get them back. I had a huge perv through the map editor to see what old units made it back. No Reaver either.
    The Reaver is the only unit I get really nostalgic over.
    Doesn't matter though. Game is great.

    they really should have reduced the frequency that the i-Pistol add plays
    it's a very minor complaint, but the joke isn't that funny and after seeing it pop up so often I'm just annoyed by it now

    Okay, that makes sense. I don't think that it hurts a game like SCII where most units can't do that though. I guess I don't play enough RTS games that it's something I'd like to see become en vogue but I can see the argument for it.

    The last RTS I put a substantial amount of time in was Company of Heroes and all units shot while moving besides the stationary ones of course.
