Starcraft II Wings of Liberty : Review


StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty

The legacy it followed of being in the top 10 strategy games of all time along with the tag of Starcraft, latest game from Blizzard Entertainment gave it the publicity and promotion and there were a lot of expectations. While one has to say that game has transformed from 2D to 3D and most of the animations and graphics are more smooth and fine but still  the biggest inconvenience that users seems to have is that they consider the game incomplete.  Also people are reporting that game installation is a tedious process and some people have not been able to install it as it asks users to register online even if you are playing solo.[more]

About the Game

StarCraft II is split into three installments: the base game with the subtitle Wings of Liberty, and two expansion packs, Heart of the Swarm and Legacy of the Void. While Wings of Liberty focusses on Terrans ,Heart of the Swarm and Legacy of the Void will focus on the Zerg and Protoss. The sad part is that the story is incomplete without these two parts which are not yet released.Having said that there is also enough room and a very strong story line up in the solo campaigns. The current release “Wings of Liberty” game is more or less same as previous version , with few upgrades and return of old characters. The game has fine graphics and smoother animations along with  narration of story in between missions. New units are unlocked as you clear missions during game play. Another new thing is that now you can align your army in various forms and hire mercs for a fee by Raynor. But the best part of any Blizzard game is the amazing line of events which exists in this too.

More to Come

There is news that the second part Heart of the Swarm would have some RPG elements.  Well Blizzard seems to have cashed most on its brand Starcraft but a long sequel of one of the best games might not be the best strategy .

more to come.
