Finally grabbed my pre-order today. Couple of thoughts:
- I'm sad Blizzard is splitting the campaign into three parts at higher prices. Fan-gouging is wonderful.
I don't really care about the gameplay - I'm not expecting anything other than a prettier version of the original games. I've always usually been in video games for the cinematic story over multi.
I'm a sucker for generic epic trailer music, but some of Raynor's lines ("Bout time we kicked this revolution into ovahdriiiiivve") were cringeworthy.
I know it's basically the Terran campaign, but I wish there was more Protoss to see.
It's a pity, but I don't think Mengsk is going down in this storyline - he'll probably fall a few missions before Kerrigan does. Moreover, I actually hope Raynor survives; he's the only real hero the game still has standing (Zeratul, being a Protoss, is required to sacrifice himself somewhere down the line).
Beyond the silly bulky astronaut suits for the Marines, the aesthetic is pretty cool - the imperial wanker in most people would love the giant gaudy dress suit Valerian has on.
