In 1998, StarCraft blew industry its release, having collected many prestigious awards. The game has become a truly legendary, and especially mad at her South Korea: there Championships SC aired on federal channels on a par with the Olympics or football matches. Perhaps every gamer anything but heard about this famous strategy.
Fans and fans waited twelve long years. And all these years, Terran, Zerg and Protoss all nationalities converged in fierce battles tournament, earning hundreds of thousands of dollars. But time does not spare anyone – even the legends: at one point, it became clear that it was time to release a sequel. In 2010, Blizzard broke the second part.
And the community was divided in opinion. Some doom waved his hand and argued that StarCraft 2 franchise dead, others called it a breath of fresh air. In the end, Blizzard decided everything for everyone: yes prohibited conduct took championships in the first part. Most of all, of course, outraged South Koreans, but a storm of discontent quickly subsided. A little later, SC2 and all gained a huge audience, ceased to be a game exclusively for competitive players.
And it seems like everything was fine. Major additions to the story campaign, changes in multiplayer co-op mode – developers have to pump up interest in the game in every way.
Meanwhile, hundreds of thousands of players all over the world fought for the coveted rating in steps and small game bonuses, honing their skills in the new tactics and strategies, increased APM and looked championships with well-known players (among which, by the way, many of our compatriots).
But with all this passion is gradually subsided: old players eventually lost interest and gone, and new ones are not delayed for long. And Blizzard has taken a risky step – certainly not without the participation added to the Diablo 3 Necromancer – exhumed from the annals of history and to revive already defunct, but not forgotten by fans of the first part.
Remodel had to virtually every aspect of the game. The graphics were redrawn from scratch for modern technological capabilities. There is also support 4K, so now on the big screen, where the championship is broadcast, it will be seen every vein in the neck of a small bipedal zergling. Music remained the same – the only amendment that has sharply increased bitrate.
Compare StarCraft: Remastered and Starcraft 2 does not make any sense. Despite the one and the universe, the plot, which stretches for many years, familiar and favorite characters, and even on a constant genre, it is a completely different game. Different, but at the same time similar to each other. Another thing – it is to compare the original StarCraft and the StarCraft: Remastered
Though you can get by with just one sentence: “The improvement is completed.” We can not say that a remake turned out better or worse. The game stayed exactly the same, with all its advantages and disadvantages.
The squad still selected no more than twelve units, the workers still do not understand what it means to all building and finding ways to have troops still suffering some incurable disease Besides audio and visual component of the remaster is nothing new. Furthermore, perhaps the plot, which is now fed periodically comics instead game videos.
Even as obsolete, of StarCraft – a good game.
This milestone industry, and it will always remain in our hearts. And now there is also a great reason to return to it, listen to old briefings with new voice acting, once again angry stupidity Confederates and tricks of the Sons of Korhal, sympathize with unhappy love red-haired boy-women and an aging biker-alcoholic and even go in the shoes of the leader of the cold-blooded monsters , because of which started a whole all the fuss.
Of course, this list of available classes in StarCraft: Remastered does not end. If in the past you are happy to spend time fighting for one of the three presented in StarCraft races, the updated version will definitely bring a lot of emotions. Do not forget to stock up on handkerchiefs: a rush of nostalgic sadness guaranteed!
