I like the SC1 hydra attack and spitting sound effect. That was scary when your opponent has a mass of hydra spitting at your front door. This doesnt look terrifying.
Oh man, I thought I was the only person who noticed the bad visual design! Everything in SC2's visual design is wrong! For all 3 races, there are too many greebly details that throw off the contours of units, and in a low-saturation palette it doesn't help at all! And each race has their own problems: *Terran:* 1) Too clean. Where are the sooty industrial grit of the hardy Terrans? That was their charm! 2) I hate how the infantry now have to *waddle* about to go anywhere. It's worse than WC3! *Zerg:* 1) EVERYTHING IS *PUDGY AND CUTE:* I blame modelers coming from WoW where they kept using low poly to accomodate MMORPG game systems. 2) SPIKES: "I don't know how to design monsters so I'll just put spikes on everything like an edgy 12 year old asked to design something cool." The Roaches are the worst. It's really hard to make out their silhouettes in a game with desaturated colors and an overabundance of spikey appendages that do nothing but make the shapes more erratic and hard to recognize. Didn't they learn this in their freshmen year at design school? 3) EVEN WORSE WADDLING CUTENESS THAN TERRANS. *Protoss:* The most problematic. 1) Neon lights and wafer-thin apparatuses they sport now, like brittle jewelry. The SC1 Protoss had both "magical" and yet "mass" to their designs. In SC2, Immortals seem to be the only unit that keeps this. Even Carriers feel weak because they got lots of thin buttress-like stuff on the sides. I mean, compare, SC1 Protoss victory screen to SC2 artwork for zealots! 2) *ORBS, ORBS AND SPINNING EVERYWHERE.* Lazy ass design. The Disruptor, Oracle, Mothership, Mothership Core, Tempest, Void Rays, and the deleted Stasis Orb... The Archon and Observer carried over from SC1, but the lazy design of the new units has to sit with these 2 piled on top of it. It's all the worse for monotonous design. Why can't they design cool stuff more akin to existing Protoss design like Arbiters and Corsairs? And I can't be the only one when I say Marines exploding into a crimson blossom, and zerglngs into a gore shower are things I miss in SC2. Over the top? Maybe. But every time they died like that to a siege tank's blast or an Ultralisk's smash attacks, it was fitting.

Classic Lurkers are always great for small units but using Impalers were fun too as Sieging Zerg. Both are equally good. too bad u cant have both. But Impalers help against the Odin in the last mission.
The hydralisk evolution mission is one of the few evolutions where it's legitimately a hard choice. I feel like Zerg often struggles with large armored targets but the impaler is a very specialized unit. Lurker is gonna be much better long term defence.
Bet the Tyrannids would give up a lot of bio mass to get a hand on one of those Nightmarish Impalers. I wish they used impalers instead of Lurkers in melee, although i like both of them, the lurker is redondant when you have Banelings and Infestors
what i personally enjoy about SC2 is new tactical possibilities, for example lurkers and other specialized units that are designed to mop up light enemies quickly, or marauders and stalkers that are armor breakers, SC1 seemed to lack the distinctions between advantages like that, dunno if the remaster has them but if it does, awesome.
It actually had, but just like selecting over 12 units, blizzard was too lazy to add descriptions to abilities and damages. Am pretty sure there were 3 unit types, small medium and large. Firebats dealt like 18 vs small, 9 vs medium, 2 vs large.
For zerg campaign it makes sense overall. Due to army size and composition zerg normally are very good against many squishy targets. But some stronger armored ones are more difficult to handle. The impaler one gives a strong easy counter to such targets and fortifications, until we get the Brood Lord
@@Sorcerer86pt Actually I have not played multiplayer and I am wondering if roaches get an upgrade to do more damage to light units, because in campaign giving the roaches the anti light mutation then make them vile strain is beyond useful and the roaches have always become a useful combat unit against defenses.
Ylyj PL what's the point adding impalers to multi. Lurkers in multi are strong against armor just like impalers do but lurkers are aoe so there is no reason to add them they'll be just worst version of lurkers.
So I basically found a theory on deviant art that lurker first shoot out a drill like tentacle then that tentacle has like multiple compressed spines which will erupt from the ground when the lurker decides to attack
Impalers are easily way better than lurkers. The late game terran send lots of heavy mech units that impalers are so good against. If there were more zerg vs zerg in the campaign lurkers might be better
I prefer Impalers, for they're good in the final HotS mission. Some carrion hosts with ATA locusts, some vile roaches and some impalers, and no corpsefucker to penetrate Raynor's perimeter.

It's not called the Sunken Colony because it isn't that Sunken Colony, it's an old predecessor. The actual Sunken Colonies appear in Legacy of the Void being used by Amon's zerg on Aiur
The thing is Kerrigan made the swarm way weaker than in sc1. Hydralisk were weakers, zerglings design with useless wings . No lurkers before the 3rd game... I don't know but i think SC2 was a shame in almost all the aspects. SC1 was way better
No. If you don't point out negatives, then nothing can improve. Criticism is essential in the evolution of a product or service. Also, when there's more negatives than positives then there's not much else to see, is there? Can't y'all stop staning for the subpar? 😂
@@Nobody-tm9vr ive seen some of that. I've seen some with fairly legit concerns too. Because people tend to gatekeep criticism, those with legit critiques get ignored because it all gets swept up into labeling everything as "old good, new bad." That being said, gatekeeping criticism isn't totally bad - but we need to restrict it to things that have nothing to do with the game. For example, Baldur's Gate 3 is currently catching smoke for "racism" because some races are seen as inherently evil (within the confines of its universe). That has nothing to do with the game and is a useless critique. "Old good, new bad" isn't necessarily useless when given context about game features like: mechanics, visuals, soundtrack, UI features, layouts, controls, map design, and balancing. Sometimes older games did something right, but studios completely change it and none of the fans asked for it. Another example would be Command&Conquer. The game did amazing - the studio changed so much for the sequel, Tiberian Sun, that the fans largely disliked it, and the game more or less flopped. It happened again with Command&Conquer 4; a complete change of direction and fans HATED IT. If it wasn't for C&C4, C&C2 would be the game that fans say," We don't talk about that. That didn't happen." Side note: C&C2 would be that game if it's story wasn't absolutely necessary to C&C3, so it does have to be talked about. 🤣
one reason i prefer the old games like diablo 1&2 as well as starcraft 1 + BW is the artstyle, the comic look of SC2 and D3 is just not appealing to me and honestly unfitting for both games /edit oh and the cringe over the top dialogs and cinematics
What a stupid complaint. She can spin sequences too also do you hate every leader ever for asking their minions to do as their are told? BY THEIR LEADER?
I wish you could use the Impalers in VS I don’t get why they didn’t include them…they wouldn’t have caused a balancing issue by any means. They would’ve given the Zerg their version of a siege tank.

what a shitty game. The Dark Brood war thats the legend.
This looks stupid. Nowhere near as good as Broodwar.
I wish you could use the Impalers in VS I don’t get why they didn’t include them…they wouldn’t have caused a balancing issue by any means. They would’ve given the Zerg their version of a siege tank.
Impalers don't have aoe, they would be a lot worse than lurkers.
