StarCraft Is Life: A 20th Anniversary Celebration
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 бер 2018
- We brought together players from all around the world to talk to about their experiences with StarCraft-from community diehards who helped establish the scene, to those who represent its next generation. For some of them, StarCraft is as much a vehicle for self-improvement as it is a game. For others, it’s been a means to forge lifelong friendships and establish meaningful bonds in their communities.
We here at Blizzard are right there with them.

Best bit: Geoff's mum skipping rent to pay for him to travel for his 1st tournament
Just watched this live. StarCraft has meant a lot to me since it came out 20 years ago; it's amazing to see this sentiment held strongly by so many people around the world today.

iNcontroL... buddy.. sweet dreams
I've been playing games since I was about 7 years old... and still, no game on earth ever gets me as emotional as Starcraft does. It was the first game I ever fell in love with and it still to this day remains my favorite game of all time with nothing coming close.
#SCForever
"It's a game that has continued from one generation to another."
I'm 17 and it's my uncle who showed it to me when I was young and since that moment, many years ago, it always was my favorite video game. I played hundreds of hours at this, I dedicated my first sleepless night to StarCraft, I drew scenes and characters, I cried for the community and the powerful campains...
This is just a unique game in all it's aspects and I believe it to be so much underrated (at least in my region) and overlooked at...
En taro StarCraft.
Sincerely, thank you for all you've given us for the past 20 years.
I first played Starcraft when I was 8 years old, it introduced me to the RTS genre; but more than that, it made me a gamer. A Blizzard gamer.
yeeee. I was 9 when my older brother bought starcraft in 1998. I remember playing it seriously until like 2002 when I got into other things. Then I picked it up again like 6 years ago. Best decision I ever made to play again.
Seeing InControl brought tears to my eyes! I miss him too much! 😥🙌💫✨💦
You will be on our hearths, IncontroL
Starcraft has been a big part of my life really
Me aswell buddy
Younis al-hosni This game is not a game, it's drugs.... oh that explains why I see people die from this game. Wait I play SC... HELP!!!.
The FieryCharmeleon good drugs :D
Theophile Gimli Ik, thats the problem, I'm gonna die from this drug, or be thrown in prison.
Theophile Al well mas well be a drug dealer XD
This made me cry. I'm 19 and I've been playing this game my entire life.
really? how old were you when you started?
Yeah, my mom taught me when I was 03 years old
Renato Lazo Montalván wow, coolest mom in the world
You mean Starcraft not starcraft 2 right? I started playing starcraft in 1998.
Alex Friedman well starcraft in general obviously
My life for Aiur!
In the sea of casual gaming games, StarCraft is the only true 1v1 competitive game that is still going strong and will for a very long time. StarCraft will rise to the very top of eSports once again, mark my words.
m4dd0gTV hope so, im tired of fps and card games being more popular in esports
I hope so!
It already is going that way bro. Broodwar is so lit like its becoming like it was with tons of fans and people taking the game very serious. I am one of them i practice every day.
Co-op group that i have interacted with have always been helpful and fun with providing games or just advice. I enjoy all the people there.
Here's a couple of tidbits for me at least:
- Raynor was influential to me in that he was one of the first and most memorable "down-to-earth" heroes I saw as a kid.
- Raynor and Kerrigan's relationship was one of the first romantic relationships I saw played subtly (in SC1) as a kid, as opposed to being overt. That made her transformation and their hostility later all the more tragic for 10-12 year old me.
- Fenix' death. Man, don't think I'll ever get over that.
- The cinematics blew my mind back then. They were less directly connected to the story back then, being more like their own little vignettes, and I loved how creepy and dark and somewhat mysterious they were. I mean, the first time you see the wastelands of mar sara, and you wonder what the zerg are... Imagine feeling that sense of wonder again.
- Starcraft 2 made me the most hyped and giggly I've ever been since maybe I learnt that they were making Lord of the Rings movies or something. Wings of Liberty remains the only game I've ever bought the special collector's edition for.
- I still hum the original terran soundtrack every now and then. Talk about getting pumped!
There is no other game, in my opinion, that made E Sports what it is now.
Jacob Lara counter strike
InFlamesor12 Your right. Forgot about that one. Ok 2 games.
Jacob Lara how could you, its funny because both games kind of came out almost at the same time.
Counterstrike will never be the first professional esport. Only StarCraft can hold that title.
wat
Happy 20th Anniversary StarCraft! This really brought back the memory of me and my dad playing SC1 for the first time in 1998. I absolutely fell in love with the game and the RTS genre ever since. It is one of my favorite game, and I still play it from time to time 20 years later.
I grew up putting old computers together with my friend so all my friends and family could play at the same time. I may not have been so lucky to work for Blizzard in SC2 specifically, BUT I do work with computers now and I would attribute a lot of that to my passion for SC growing up.
Yeah, That's True! It's my 20 years friend, a part of my childhood, my life.
rest in peace iNcontroL
Starcraft is life
Its everything to me
It's the reason why I love history strategy games and basically everything that inspired me to do these things I do in real life because I found them inside the Game
And the fact that my entire family used to play it was perfect
I say was because life just caught us busy
But never me I always give time to starcraft ever since I was 2 years old when my father introduced me to the Game I love
Nice video, I'm 43 now, been playing it till I was 23. Many of my friends who played it back then don't play it any more, and even looking at me through time like I'm immature. Though some people judge starcraft and describe it as dead game, that's wrong. They compare it with more popular, oversaturated games and that doesn't make sense. Many gamers don't play starcraft 'cause it's hard to start learning it, and they choose some other games, but we have really big comunity around starcraft alone to call it dead, and 27k views of this video proves it. That's enough for me, and I believe that we don't need million ppl to prove a point. Starcraft will really live like no other game, and I'm really proud to be a passenger on this big ship and to really experience the feeling we all feel playing this game.
2yrs later...122,004 views
@@c.kainoabugado7935 yeah! And I'm still here :) 45 now lol
I will always remember when I played Starcraft back in 1998, however I've always been a Blizzard fan, because I was playing Warcraft back in 1995, and still play Starcraft II and World of Warcraft. I think actually it was Blizzard Entertainment that changed my life. Thank you Blizzard.
People make fun of me or dont believe me when I say this, but pushing through masters towards GM in SC2 was one of the hardest thing I've ever experienced in my life.
LIKEWISE BRONY.....
i've been playing StarCraft since 2000 and it has always been my hands down favorite game I am glad to know it still has a huge and loveing community. GG
I started playing SC and SC Broodwar '98, I was 9 years old and still some times play SC2, what a memories...
Back in 99-2000 my friends and I would often drag our massive PC's to each others apartment, hook them up, drink beer, and play Starcraft. This was before broadband internet. I lost many games but it didn't matter.
Today I work in a technical crisis manager role for a large web site and play SC2 in my spare time - I think it helps me stay sharp and teaches you to react quickly while doing many things at once. Perfect!
happy 20th anniversary StarCraft :)
5:23 Reynor's like "pfft. Nice PR dad, not true... not true"
StarCraft has been the most amazing experience of my life....
i met some of the best people online playing starcraft, most of them today remain friends.
Literally chills Tasteless!
It's weird that they didn't get Day9 or Tastosis. It's interesting.
Otherwise, the video was amazing.
Incontrol was a must for me
also flash? how can they say anything about how great their game is without presenting the man who made it great?.....
you dont talk about God you talk with him...
Day9 has lost interest in StarCraft.
@@gilachess day9 has lost interest in life. Watch his SC1 remaster videos and how happy he is and his eyes are wide open.
Now he looks like he hasn't slept in weeks, and hates showing up to streams.
The guy needs to get his health back bad.
This game makes me happy. Everything about it is awesome, passionate about the players who I cheer for. I really enjoy it so much. I look forward to every tournament, hearing the casters like Nate, Rotti, Tosis and Tasteless. Watching the twitch streams and just trying to be apart of it as much as possible. I love this game, it means a lot to me. Congrats to Maru, he's in the elite group of GSL Code S champions. Thank you StarCraft 2.
Amazing video, a way to explain why I love this game so much!
Rip Geoff , no one runs lurkers up ramps like him
Broodwar and StarCraft 2 are part of my life since I was 4 and yes my father really reached me how to play Broodwar when I was 4 years old
RIP Incontrol. Such a nice person.
LIFE will forever be the GREATEST OF ALL TIME!
So much feeling 😆
Congrats #SC20
I clearly remember, as a 10 year old kid, when i got the game, and still to this day it has followed me through life. An amazing game that never fails to humble or entertain me! StarCraft, i take my hat off to you!
Beautiful video for a beautiful game. Starcraft has touched so many lives
This was a awesome cast interviews, but it would also have been nice to have Nestea and MVP talk about it too!!
Starcraft is very fun, its hard and the community is very good. Found it in 2013, my pc could not run it so i plaied brood war and enjoied it, then got my 1st build and could play sc2 all day. Made good friends there, older people, younger people. I was kicked out of house and i didnt have a place to stay, but i had work and i bathed and ate at work (mcdonalds) i had been paied just before so i had money, i used to play on the workplace pc, could only run on low tho xD I also bought the SC2 legacy of the void expansion for a friend and would play it on his acount, and then when i rented a place and got internet bought it again for me xD I could have staied with family but i refused. Also in 2014 i just staied at home all year, made good german friends, would play with them everyday, good people.
broodwar player since 2000 its a great game and fun to watch hope it doesnt die
I got too obsessed with it like 10 years ago, so I had 2 stop playing it
Although released in 1998, real-time strategy StarCraft Broodwar is still very popular in South Korea. The balanced interactions of the three races - terranes (equilibrium of bio & tech), protoss (psi technology) and zerg (bioorganics) or (according to Freud - «I», «Super-Ego» and «It»), give the game the properties of an e-sports discipline. This is «21st century chess»!
I hope that they would make more starcraft cuz that gamee is soo epicc
I miss when Starcraft acknowledged Life. He was one of the best Zergs this game has ever seen.
And also a matchfixer.
You miss when Starcraft acknowledged? If you meant to write something after acknowledged I can't see it Kappa
Oh no. Incontrol. I miss you
lo seguire jugando por mucho tiempo mas, es un juego genial
The best RTS ever.
Love this.
First played the game in 99.
Where is the air support!
Captain, we have a huge infestation problem.
Thank god for cold fusion.
Popped up in my recommendations.
Thumbnail of Incontrol, RIP geoff...
For Zeratul :')
20 Years of StarCraft (1998-2018)
Yes StarCraft is one of my childhood rts games
I remember playing this when I was a kid in 2009. It really shaped who I am, and to this day I consider StarCraft 1 my favorite game ever made. Now unfortunately I've always been a console gamer, so that means I've never played sc 2 :(. But Seriously thought, I'm much younger than this community, and I still absolutely adore this game.
Que gran juego, y que tantos recuerdos, Starcraft es y probablemente lo seguirá siendo, uno de mis juegos favoritos de todos los tiempos. GRANDE STARCRAFT !!!
RIP iNcontrol
I am surprised they did not even bother interviewing monumental players in this video.
From 1999 when a friend of mine suggested buying the game, to falling in love with the story and protoss characters (my life for Aiur!), to watching Nick "Tasteless" Plott casting games in Korea, to the announcement and hype of StarCraft 2 (and its disappointing story), to Heroes of the Storm allowing me to fight Diablo as Zeratul, Artanis, and Tassadar, to StarCraft Remastered: StarCraft is a great part of life.
I've been playing since the day it came out i have the zerg and the tal'darim symbol tattooed on me
20th Anniversary? WOW I AM REALLY OLD
I remembered back when I was 5. 2003 ish. My brother showed me Broodwar. Played against AI with all the cheat codes on so I can win lol. Today Starcraft BW and 2 will and always be my favorite game of all time. I can never get bored of this amazing game.
Brood war was the 1st game i played on my 1st pc. Magic.
genial!!! StarCraft es el mejor juego a mi opinion. la primera vez que lo jugé fue a los 7 años😂 ahora tengo 19 y sigo viendolo de la misma manera de bueno!
It really is life
My life for aiur!
For the Swarm!!!
I love you, sarge.
I envy Geoff's mom. My mom won't do that. She'd force what she wants to me instead.
se viene algo grande para su aniversario 30 ..... :D
Make the movie STARCRAFT please....
Best game ever!
Starcraft was me childhood... Anyone else?
I'm myself a big fan of starcraft but i was honestly expecting a kind of documentairy on the history and the evolution of startcraft ... yes with some players talking, but also the people who created it and work on it everyday...... not a little 8 minutes video...
StarCraft are being most experience game that i've played...
#WhyIloveSC2andSC1
对我来说 星际争霸是一款伟大的游戏
从未被超越
StarCraft is Love, StarCraft is Life.
孙一峰永远是我大哥。
25BOY ：）
都是好事
I've played since 99 and I'm always aware of how ashamed I have something incommon with most players being a lot are cave men or social rejects. This video showed me nothing has changed.
Best game - all time!!!!!!!!!!!
Old times.
We need StarCraft: Ghost FPS shooter on PC, please :)
They were but canceled it
before starcraft i was dumb and now im still dumb but i can think for myself ^^
Best game ever made. Chess made 3D and exciting.
Yes! StarCraft is life and it will always be! Hail to the king, baby!
IA!!!
Kinda Sad that they don´t make good RTS games anymore. Sc is unreachable but that shouldn´t mean that other companies try to achieve it.
Subtitles mishap: on 7:20 word are located at wrong people.
What about the campaign story?
SC2forlife
I'd just like to point out the combined earnings in inControl and Machine's professional gamer career amounts to about $6000.
These are the only two people they could find to talk about Starcraft.
iAxX is this really true?
a bit disappointed.... i was waiting for interviews from the developers.... and especially the older ones if they still work in blizzard. not a bunch if esport guys. and starcraft succeed as an esport because of its amazing driver storyline. never forget that.
Why is Joe Lauzon not featured?
Encontrarse un chileno en todas partes, tipico chileno :V
StrarCraft BroodWar till death not only a game especially with such a sc bw tattoo < 3 ^^
