Hello There!
Developer Commentary time!
Uhhh yeah this is probably the best mod I’ve made, it’s really really good and it’s been playtested to hell and back. I can’t wait for y’all to see more of it! There’s a lot to cover about gameplay design choices today so I guess I’ll give the quick version of the things I think people will want to know about.
The unit tags have changed to be small/medium/large because things like calling roaches light despite their high base armor bothered me. Also I like this system as it’s pretty easy to go “yeah that’s a big one” the blurriest line is probably small/medium. I occasionally had to differ to balance considerations.
Probes: Grant was wrong about probes leaving him at an odd number of supply, because real scale probes don’t cost any supplies at all! Grant was actually also spot on with why warp in probe was added, it’s a lot of fun with deploy pylon and if you care you can get saturated faster by using it. Smart autocast probes has sadly ruined standard SC2 gameplay for me, I’ve been spoiled.
Zealot: 1 supply, ignoring armor and (Grant didn’t notice this) damage resistance while charging. The zealot is a useful tool throughout the entire campaign and is never bad fluff around your army. (You will notice armor ignoring as a common theme for Protoss melee attacks 😊)
Stalker: It’s the same good formula from standard gameplay. Grant is correct though it does struggle vs mutalisks as mutalisks are small and stalkers have a bonus vs medium.
I’ll leave the Colossus and Immortal in-depth discussion for their respective mission. The minimum range thing is a common balance for siege weaponry in RTS, nothing too remarkable about that. Immortals haven’t changed much from RS WoL, they’re still rocking hardened shield and barrier. The bonus vs large lets them tackle large ground like ultralisks and Thors that the Protoss really don’t have.
Orca we love you. Keep making the great content! This looks absolutely fantastic
General Orca!
Orca, you madlad.... you did it!
I could say... it is your magnum opious.
So you basically reversed SC2 to SC1 with small/medium/large unit labels :D
just in case if anyone was curious he only like 29 units on that first mission nice
7:23 Hybrid: Firstborn your fate is Seaaaa... OH MY GOD!! (Gets impaled by the giant colossi's leg)
Colossus 1: Hey did you hear something?
Colossus 2: Nah get back to purifying
(Wilhelm Scream)
Reminds me of one of the carbots animation where a colossus killed a stalker by accident because of his legs xD
The singular is Colossus, btw
@@TrixterTheFemboy thank you
@@cheesysealAnon No problem
Grant sounds like a kid who's unboxing his first Christmas presents and I'm all for it. A giggling Grant is good for your mental health and entertainment.
not sure if grant joy or pain is better
@@robertserafini560 Grant joy is so much better. Grant pain is best when it is funny pain like twitch trolls granr
Technically, in some parts of the world, there's still Orthodox Christmas (it's on Jan 7th). And for my time zone video was released exactly when that day ended, nice timing. Oh yeah I remembered that people don't give presents on Orthodox Christmas, damn it.
Its really great watching him be that way, it just puts you in a good mood!
I’m guessing will need a entire completion of his little giggles and stuff like that together
I can't wait for Grant to play real scale memes of liberty randomizer.
Nightmare edition.
I think the Gigachonk Thors should make a return in Memes of Liberty
Would be hilarious to see them belittle the Odin
The Universe would collapse : )
real scale mitoscarab strong
I personally cannot wait for the giga carrier and the baby ships, along with other things
The baby ships that are the size of wraiths ideally
@@greatmightypanda or mutalisks if I remember the sc1 cinematic properly
HERE COMES THE SPEAR OF ADUN!
the Immortal definitely feels like a Main Battle Tank, even moreso than normal. Just a giant chunk of durability and decent firepower in the front line. Very cool
10:10 I love how Grant just says: "alright"
When you agree the agreement:
That zealot ignore armor is both awesome and worrying. You're probably going to need that.
Its like doing very well in L4D and then despite that the Director gives ya op weps and lots of medkits. You know you are screwed.
@@IsmaelSantos-iy4xi If you do well for a whole campaign or two expect the Director to drop something like a Tank at the start of The Passing on you. Seriously, it did that to me in L4D2 on my first ever playthrough.
"Why do colossus get hit by air?" *Shows this video" haha
The colossus is called that for a reason. :p
How the colossi cross the tiny light bridge is simply a mystery science can't answer
Haha someone watches Lowko
I like how scripted Phoenixes attacked actual mutas 6:22.
I can't wait for the rest of this to be done, that's going to be such an INSANE run for real
Seeing colossi of this size and scale goes a long, long way towards justifying why activating them and the Purifiers is a turning moment for the fortunes of the Protoss in the overall story arc.
I've been waiting for this ever since the absurd Protoss ships in Wings of Liberty. Now it's time for payback.
Same here. I clicked the instant I realized they'd finally gotten around to making this one.
Salvation is gonna get hectic with Battlefleet Grant vs Golden Armada
Seeing the cinematic Phoenixes in For Aiur shooting down the flyers that you actually have to fight against is funny
As for the next planet, Korhal has the Moebius BCs, and maybe Jim/Valerian will have their own Real Scale Thors and BCs. That'll be a treat. It also is the calm before the storm that is the Hybrid Nemesis
Whats a BC?
@@IsmaelSantos-iy4xi Battlecruiser, the big capital ship of Terran
If you haven't seen Real Scale WoL, maybe this is the cue that you should!
@@amplesstratleholm7609 I have seen them.
I do not recall any such "battlecruiser". The capital ship of the Terran, to my knowledge, is the mighty Cattlebruiser.
After Grant entirely overlooked the extra base for fun protoss memes in the HotS temple mission, Orca made sure to add a beacon to the new base so Grant wouldn't miss it.
Because Orca learns from his mistakes.
fun fact about the Colossus in lore.
Before they were banned by the Protoss, they were used against the Kalathi, a lesser alien race that went to 'war' against a small Protoss force after some escalation. Due to the Kalathi constantly harassing the researchers, they unleash the Colossi on them.
In the end, hundreds of thousands of Kalathi died and they were sent back to the stone age.
which lead to the ban of Colossi and Protoss's isolationism, and this happened right after the Protoss recovered from the age of strife too.
It's so fun to see Grant have an absolute blast on this mission.
Could you imagine the amount of pain Grant would have if Colossi did Friendly Fire?
Hmm.
Shall we go to shakuras, where we will get to see some DTs, about 5 billion zerglings, a couple of ultras, and eventually some hybrid, most notably the hybrid nemesis? (The void ray one)
Or will we go to korhall, where we will get to see a feck ton of battlecruisers, Thors, Ravens, hybrid dominators, and behemoths.
The Modder: "Ok Grant, here is the first part but the mod isn't done yet so please wait a bit more before playing it"
Grant: "...no, i don't think i will"
Jokes aside, i really loved the first mission, it's so good to see the protoss just destroy the zerg
Also, the enemy doesn't need more hybrid, just put extra BCs/Carriers in the enemy side and it they will be just fine XD
Been waiting for this mod. Personally I'm all for shakuras for the hybrid and the giant void thrashers
Omg it's finally here! I'm so glad this mod was created, you have no idea
Finally we are here! Ty to you and modders who make it REAL
Zeratul:IMPOSSIBLE! HYBRID on aí.... Well whatever they are gone already
I always love the Real Scale series, RS WoL was the first series I ever saw of you and I’ve been watching every series ever since.
Legacy of the Void Real Scale? I'm ALL for it and I can't wait to see units that covers the entire universe. It's gonna be stupid, ridiculous and I will love it
YES!!! I've been waiting for this series for so long
This seems great, looking forward to seeing more
It is TIME
We have real scale Legacy of the Void :)
I cannot wait to see all missions of this mod :)
I've been waiting for this a long time ago and we finally got it. Hope you will have as much fun playing it as we have watching it.
Cannot wait for more, this is gonna be nuts!
No wonder the Templars said NOPE to those Colossi
YESSSSSS Been so excited for this!!
17:00
“We are Cold”
Negligent Commander, not providing for his troops
I think its probably a good idea to go to Korhal, as you don't currently have a great way to deal with Large. I also really want to see some more hybrid.
I have been waiting for this, I am so exited
Oh my god I am SO EXCITED for this!!
Look at them cute little Stalkers, blinking from 1 leg of a Colossus to the other, aaaaaaww!
Waited so long for this.
I think its good that carrier got the scout treatment, I do not think you’d ever beat a single carrier with stalkers probably ever.
I want to see how mr. Happy Grant uses his wonderful vanguards.
FINALLY I WAITED SO LONG FOR THIS
I'm like two minutes in and I can already tell this is gonna be my favorite mod. This is what Protoss is supposed to feel like.
This has improved so much since the first real scale! It seems so much more playable when there are massive units on the screen
Friendly reminders regarding the zealot:
In Cold Symmetry, a short story, one was able to outrun the rotation of a moon, while poisoned by a hydralisk
Same one jumped high enough to reach an overlord, killed it, dodged hydra spines, which travel at supersonic speeds, went down, killed the hydras, almost killed an ultralisk, then did kill it using a beacon, which only knocked him unconscious.
Woke up, kept running, killed two more ultralisks by himself, with only a single psi-blade and a hydra claw that he strapped to his other arm, and this wasn't even the first time he had done so, though the first time he had lost an eye.
(Hearing that right btw, like, actually full on ultralisks. He also flexes that this is something most veteran zealots could do)
Outran an entire zerg army to place the final beacon, allowing him to contact part of the Golden Armada in orbit, telling them the zerg were under something's (the hybrid, but he didn't know that) control, he thought it was a cerebrate.
In other short stories, they have abilities like precognition, travel at super, maybe hypersonic speeds by turning into pure energy (when is that coming to the twilight council?). In cinematics they're able to tank full baneling blasts with their shields alone, a single fingernail sized amount by the way is able to collapse buildings.
Oh right, and psi-blades: I don't think there's a single instance of anything other than another psi-blade being able to physically block one. This doesn't apply to zealots, but Tassadar was able to manifest them into ORBIT, without the necessary gear, by just sheer psionic force of will.
Obviously named characters, in stories about them, are going to be stronger than ye average protoss warrior, but zealots get slept on a lot.
i love this already
You know you're off to a good start when you can't stop laughing in the first mission.
Watching real scale Protoss units melt the Zerg makes me understand why the Conclave mistakenly believed they could win the war during the Overmind's invasion of Aiur.
This is something I've been waiting for lets go.
This is exactly what I and everybody was waitting for
YEAHHHHH BABYYYY, LET'S GOOOOOO 💙
LoTV is the campaign that interested me the most in real scale. I can't wait to see the amazing job the modders did 👀
The starts of this mission in real scale is all I've been waiting for. Real Scale Protoss is gonna be good
I feel like Khorhal is the obvious first choice for the simple reason of having a siegebuster. Until then you're reliant on mass zealot to crush big targets like thors, ultras and collosi. The immortal is probably a key part of the run since it's more durable and less susceptible to aoe, although depending on detection the DT might be able to pick up that slack.
Hell yah congratulations for the amazing work everyone
Wuhu nice I have been looking forward to this mod
YES THE MIGHTY CAMPAIGNS ARE CONTINUED!
the panic in his voice when he got a expansion
Colossi in lore: giant mecha devastating to the point where deploying them was considered war crime tier.
Colossi in game: daddy longlegs with half the damage and HP
On the topic of features making things more accessible for newer/less skilled players, one thing I really wish was an option in SC2 is reconfiguring F2 to select unhotkeyed units instead of all units, if only because it's such a nice convenience feature if you're starting out, but also makes it difficult to comfortable controlling multiple distinct groups of units because F2 is the easiest way to grab your new units, but it also makes it difficult to filter out the units in your other control groups, thus causing them to all get messed up anyway so you just go back to F2 -> a, and while you can just unbind it, I don't think? there's an option to prohibit clicking on it which is still easier than manually selecting the new units.
I'm glad you're having fun 😊
aw sweet been waiting for this one for a while and i think fire in the sky is the way to go since the immortal seems like it would be a great thing to just have
Real Scale Legacy Of The Void! Finally! This will be amazing! Time to find out how ridiculous a lot of these missions are with real scale turned on!
hell yes I AM SO READY - and for legacy of the void randomizer
This is a very funny video. Gonna show my starcraft buds this.
The multi-select icons for Gateways have so many production pips that it makes me think Gateways act like they have Reactors!
First video and this is already soooo stupid, I love it!
Now I understand why Tempest are supposed to be this giant 'anti capital ship' ship. Because they shoot laser balls the size of friggin void rays! No wonder those things tear apart giant space ships on seconds...
It's here. It's finally here.
The mothership gonna be like it's own spear of adun lol
Korhal, gotta get them THICC Immortals ASAP
Yessss, I was just rewatching the WoL version
EXCITEMENT!!!! ITS HERE!!! omg i cant wait to play this!!
Newest SC2 patch: Make ultras not ultra.
Real scale mod: UUULLTTRRAALLLIIISSKKK!!!
Thanks for the real fun! ^^
Finally. This is gonna be awesome. I wonder how big are Tempests and Amon's avatar.
10:52 so satisfying blink evacuation
GiantGrantGames: Colossus are pretty squishy in this mod
*2 seconds later*
GiantGrantGames: Oh My Gosh! Colossus are SO bulky!
The slower sweeping speed of the colossi attacks remind of the beam cannons in Freespace 2.....nostalgia high inbound...
Once upon a time, I ended up in the path of one of those capital size beams. It wasn't a good place to be.
What a great little series that was!
I really love the Zealot here, given how most lore depictions of Protoss armies are very Zealot heavy, and thus melee focused(even though they have lasers), it makes sense that they have a good reason to get up close and personal
i think shakuras first could be cool so we see how orca mightve changed the khaydarin, i think its a cool building
Probably AOE
It's finally here!
Oh boy dis gonna be good
This is freaking awesome, so exited to see the rest of this campaign! Also, why are colossi called long zealots?? Been wondering this for the longest time
HYPE! I WANT THIS MOD SO BAD!
The day has come!
"This is going to scale up into absurdity faster than the previous Real Scale mods"
I seem to remember hitting the max unit count the can can process by mission five or six of Heart of the Swarm Real Scale so I guess we need to wait and see. Can't wait for maxed out carriers to be 1 carrier and no other units.
I think I'd prefer the hybrid to just be WAY stronger than just spamming tons of them. Maybe don't make them as strong as Marr, but close. They should all have shields that regenerate very quickly so you retreating just allows them to heal up. Maybe give them all splash damage too? I'm not sure...
YESSS ITS HERE
yes finally i can witness the true power of carriers
It's here! I want to see if the MONOLITH is actually huge.
Your videos lately havent been peaking my interesting, but I'm 100% down for another Real Scale playthrough
How fun it would be if someone could get the Real Scale and Randomizer mods to work together.
We need to see those colossi dance!
So excited for the Spear of Adun!
I'm always excited to see a new Grant upload, and even more than excited to see a new series!🥹
Wrathwalkers are gonna fire such giant blasts it's going to be hilarious to see.
my immediate thought about warping in probes would be for base expansion and forward deployment of things like batteries or cannons since you get 2 pylon abilities and the matrix field all of which allow you to have a power field where ever you so wish, just drop a field/pylon and warp in a probe then you can warp in an entire base on the spot if you so wish while also providing a warp point for reinforcements if you like to use warp gates over gateways
A happy Grant makes for a happy day😆.
As for the next planet, I think Korhal would be beat, as it would let us see how RS protoss would fare against RS terran🤩.
Been waiting for this for a long time. I said this in the Wings of Liberty and Heart of the Swarm playthrough and I'll say it again. I believe that each in-game unit does not represent a single in-universe unit but multiple in-universe units with the exception of the mightiest ones. For example, an in-game Zealot does not represent a single Zealot but a whole band of them.
Brings to mind Kane's Wrath, where all infantry (exept the commando and engineer) are trained in squads.
I think the colossus was harder than it should have been because you forgot to take advantage of it's minimum range. Aka get all of your stalkers directly under it so it can't shoot them.
