Blizzard should honestly stop developing games and just make animated movies for the universes they have. Bet a lot of fans would love to see the backstories and novels animated
Book scenes not mentioned in the games: -Jim takes Sarah out for coffee to talk after she drops the first psi emitter. This is the first time they develop a friendship as they previously did not like each other, Jim not liking Sarah for being a psychic (his child was a psychic and killed by Confederacy) and Sarah not liking him for having lustful thoughts when they meet -They run several missions together (she even starts calling him Jimmy LOL) before Mengsk leaves Sarah on New Gettysburg. Jim attempts a rescue in a dropship but fails then attempts a rescue with his band of followers, most of whom get killed. This is where Jim allies with the Protoss to fight against Sarah who is the Queen of Blades at this point. -Jim and Sarah actually have a psychic connection while she is the Queen of Blades. She torments him in dreams and shows him the life they could have had, with kisses and dates. Zeratul actually keeps track of Kerrigan through Jim's dreams. The psychic connection also allows Jim to understand the Zerg communication- Zeratul notes the Zerg do not speak a language but they communicate and when it reaches Kerrigan she naturally translates it to a language and unintentionally shares it with Jim -In a later book (Flashpoint), there is a flashback to where they raid a science facility for Mengsk. After the mission, they go on a date for real and end up sleeping together (implied to be Kerrigan's first time). This actually contradicts the earlier book (Queen of Blades) where Jim states that they were never lovers although they had a strong attraction to each other.
The music for when Kerrigan walks into Jims cell and is revealed in her full glory as the true queen of the zerg is so good, that choral build up and realisation of horror. I wish it had an extended version.
Back in the days when a female lead could be strong and sexy and love a man that is just as badass. Sarah is superior to any female lead they try to put out these days.
Is not a bad guy, he is a military who would do anything to complish her, even start a war against the UED itself as long as she gets what she wants (revenge against mensk). Only a man like that deserves a woman like Kerrigan
You’re right. as a big anime and comic book fan, I don’t think any female character was written as great as karrigan from her days as a good guy to villain to redemption. Great character.
Bro the last scene made me shed tears like its whole some moments A man who started a path and kept on pushing and got betrayed and fought back and a longer path and all the universe depened on that man That man really scarficed so much i hope i have some of this rocking Bull shit ❤
I hate that she threw away her humanity - I feel so bad for Jim, imagine everything he went through just for her to betray it all and become a monster. In other words, utterly amazing storytelling. Just feel so sad for Jim, because the second time she actually chose to throw away his sacrifices and become a monster.
i really wished they had made an animated starcraft story revolving around raynor and kerrigan… then a live action version in the future. it’s never too late Blizzard.
14:23 if kerrigan could have assimilated him into the zero at that moment then I think they would rule the universe. But honestly what happened is way better.
"My pleasure, Darlin... always was". i'm a 54 y/o man and i'm sitting here crying watching these cinematics. Blizzard did some fine work on SC and SC2.
I played a dozen times just to see this cinematic again and every time I cried, same when Sarah rescued Jim from jail, same when she became Xel'naga (when she comes in his mind) Damn
got to love a red head with some spice to her. also i never finished all of starcraft 2, now i see why there has been no starcraft 3. like unless you go 100 years in the future how do you make another story? maybe in another sector far away from here but i dont think blizzard has the writing ability to do that...now. maybe 1 years ago but not now.
Well, Halo is kind of more famous and it's Microsoft's main franchise. Starcraft, let's say it has its loyal players, but World of Warcraft is Blizzard's biggest IP. And Blizzard themselves don't give a shit on Starcraft anymore. We can only hope Microsoft starts to pick Starcraft up.
I hope hollywood (or tv studios) never, ever put their social justice soaked hands on this IP. Fans have witnessed enough self-righteous destruction (SW, ST, Indiana Jones Dr Who, Willow, Halo, Witcher etc). This story, the performances of these actors and animators cannot ever be improved upon anyway. Especially with live action pretenders.
I wonder if it was even worth it for them to create a rich singleplayer campaign. Do most people even bother with it? StarCraft is primarily a multiplayer game for most.
The problem starcraft and other RTS games actually have is making people play the multiplayer once they've played the single player. There are tons of breakdown analysis videos on the numbers, but something like 1 in 5 people play the multiplayer after playing the story, so most people actually play RTS games for the campaign but it IS a single player experience, so there's no way to really interact with anyone while playing single player, so it doesn't really have a way to "feel" popular or not.
@@tyfhg1 Interesting statistic. I guess I have an impression of sc as an esport and wasn't aware of the number of casual players who never get past the campaign.
The amount of story missing between each of these cutscenes is criminal.

@@HappyTofu2424they should we all want to see this rather than play their shitty games now
@@HappyTofu2424 They have a plethora of great novels and comics. SC Expands on the universe. Worth the time.
Jim and Sarah forever ♥
Nah, Jim and Pam is the true ending
@@MionMikan No Pam
@@daksans6764 Seriously bro, what with the romance backstaber ruining the moments?

It just hit me that the scene with Jimmy and Matt has "Free Bird" playing in the back ground with garbled lyrics

Jim Raynor is one of the most underrated video game protagonists ever.
Bro the last scene made me shed tears like its whole some moments
A man who started a path and kept on pushing and got betrayed and fought back and a longer path and all the universe depened on that man
That man really scarficed so much i hope i have some of this rocking
Bull shit ❤
Love their storylines
True Love
I hate that she threw away her humanity - I feel so bad for Jim, imagine everything he went through just for her to betray it all and become a monster.
In other words, utterly amazing storytelling. Just feel so sad for Jim, because the second time she actually chose to throw away his sacrifices and become a monster.
Remember that when she became a Zerg again, she still believed Jim was dead.
Imagine a 'proper' Starcraft TV series. I mean when was the last time we enjoyed an 'It's done when we say it is' Blizzard project? LoTV perhaps?
Jim and Raynor were always the emotional core of this story and what gave it any emotional heft.
and Kerrigan gave Jim a shaft. I will see myself out...
they are the best cupple ever
Best love stories ever!!!!!
Judging from the last slide, Kerrigan started playing terra nil in the end oo
I literally cried at the end when sarah showed up😭😭😭
thanks a lot for this
i really wished they had made an animated starcraft story revolving around raynor and kerrigan… then a live action version in the future. it’s never too late Blizzard.
The puppy dog,i love zerglings.

This fucking story makes me cryyyyyy😢
If halo already have series, why still have no StarCraft?

i love halo show but starcraft needs to be made its insane that it hasnt yet@@hmw4166
Shame that there was no budget to do a high quality cinemativ and isntead we got the ingame shit...but the telling is still perfect
A message to mr. Raynor from Executor Nral:
*stop simping.*
You may not understand it, but it's important.
but you gotta admit, one hell of a legend in his simp quest
@@slamdunktiger well in a sense, she ends up becoming a god.
So he shacked up with a goddess.
@@champion6534 true, he also leveled up and got hella loot! He got the HYPERION!
@@champion6534 funny though, I’m in my own Jim Raynor story and she indeed is a flying unicorn
@@slamdunktiger lmao
So many games got lovecraft influance.
he was a great writer

How the hell did everyone enjoy the story in StarCraft 2?
I wonder if it was even worth it for them to create a rich singleplayer campaign. Do most people even bother with it? StarCraft is primarily a multiplayer game for most.
I actually enjoy the Single player campaign more than multiplayer.

@@Menaiya Same !!!!!
Overly melodramatic emotional drivvel... put into amazing cutscenes. As usual, the cinematics are great, just the story is weak and uninspired.
She's actually a 6.5 at best
Beauty lies within the eye of the beholder
kerrigan is an 11/10 .... best queen of blades ever, would zerg for eternity
