Poll: Are you on the fence about Starcraft 2?

[TheBaron87]

So it seems nobody's really interested in a random gaming channel, since there are millions of them.

How about one where the streamer actually chats with the audience? The whole reason I stream is for the social aspect, so I'll chat about whatever burning questions you have, and comment on my impressions of the game as we go, except during cutscenes, naturally.

"What the heck are you talking about?" you ask? I'm doing an SC2 campaign marathon tonight at 8pm PST, starting with a Starcraft 1 recap video. This is also the perfect opportunity to get up to speed with the original's story, if you're totally fresh on Starcraft. This is NOT for people who are already getting the game, I know you guys would rather be playing, this is for those who are unsure, want to catch up on the story, or maybe want to see someone that's pretty good at the game play.

This will be the last time I post about my stream, I'm not trying to draw people away from Escapist. I love Escapist, and I love you guys, so I thought we could do something fun that's live. If you're on the fence about the game and don't mind spoilers, come join the chat. I'll answer any question you have.

Not interested, no offense to Starcraft fans.

That's perfectly fine, as long as some sort of discussion happens. I've been looking forward to doing this for weeks.

On the fence? I'm sitting here twitching waiting for it to be late enough to merit going out to wait for the midnight launch.

So no, not on the fence. I might buy several copies just so I have extras to hold while I sleep.

I personally love the games, sadly I can't start playing at midnight because I'm getting the online version. But I love the streaming thing. I wish I could do it, but do to lack of know how I can't haha, wish I could, it would make my blog, wish I had another word for that, more interesting. I hope to be able to see your stream. Are you going to be playing online once you've finished the campaign?

 

[Radeonx]

I'm 120% in the "must buy" column.
Starcraft is my favorite game of all time, and I preordered SC2 expecting a lot.
And even if it isn't as good as the first, which, from the beta, it isn't (STILL FANTASTIC), I'm still going to love the game.

 

[Kwaren]

I haven't liked any RTS game I have played so far so I doubt this will be any different.

 

[maddawg IAJI]

I'm not a fan of RTS games, so I doubt I would be interested in Starcraft.

 

[Thedayrecker]

Where's the "I could give a rat's ass" option?

I don't hate Starcraft, but I'm not planning on getting the second one.... maybe if I saw it on sale somewhere, but other than that, no.

 

[Arkhangelsk]

I have Starcraft II in my hands! Just went to the midnight release. And, I have the collector's edition!

 

[SpireOfFire]

for a while, i could care less. but now that its getting closer and there arent any other good games coming out for a while, i'm probly getting it.

 

[icyneesan]

I feel like the only RTS fan who doesn't want/care about Starcraft 2 (Still waiting for Warcraft 4)

My answer, 'No'

 

[slipknot4]

It's a certain buy for me, but Starcraft and Broodwar wore... meh, to be honest. I guess i'll just "whosyourdaddy" trough the campaign in Sc if i want a recap of the story.

 

[squidbuddy99]

I'm content with Dawn of War: Soulstorm. Besides, I'm not very good at Starcraft anyways.

 

[Shockolate]

The only thing I'm on the fence about is whether or not my computer will run it.

Nevertheless, it will be bought.

 

[Ertol]

I'm not a huge RTS fan, and I didn't really like the original Starcraft, but I'll most probably pick this one up when it goes on sale or maybe I'll wait for a battle chest or something.

 

[PatrickXD]

I've never even heard of Starcraft before, until today. So I might watch if my internet permits me, a friend of mine piqued my interest.

I love the original but I'm not going to by 2 for a bi because of how they are pricing and releasing the game.
