@@Lucifer-fj7mg And it's those countries that need it. An earth, free of oppressive religion and authorities, would flourish and ascend to the stars a lot sooner.
ya, i started playing in 2010 at age 19. this absolutely brings tears to my eyes. these cinematics and stories were crafted with so much love. its overwhelming.
"It's all due to a Wall Street Journal story which claims that Blizzard has spent around $100 million on development, which would make it one of the most expensive development projects in gaming history, on any platform." Was that right?
I've always been really impressed how good the story telling was for Star Craft. For most video games the back story is little more than an afterthought but for Star Craft it was always the Heart and Soul of the Game. It's hard to appreciate just how much work went into the story behind Star Craft unless you watch all the Cutscenes together and then you realize it's NOT a video game with a story it's A Story that includes a Video Game.
This game will always be my favourite in my list, along with Red Alert and Warcraft. Thank you for the great game, Blizzard. Well, let's see if MS is going to relive this franchise back. If they ever do, of course.
I played wc3 on battlenet, diablo 2 and expansion on battlenet up until like 2009/10. I hadnt played since but will always agree Starcraft was just as good as those games if not better.
That last bit, when I first watched it... I cried like a bitch. I was invested in Jim and Sarah for years, as the games were coming out. And to finally close on them being together in peace after all that cosmic bullshit the universe threw at them... It was overwhelming. Tears left my eyes, it was like one of 4 times I cried as an adult, and other 3 times were real people in my life dying.
First game I owned as a child and that I play still today, and always will. The story is better than any movie I've seen or read. Blizzard, please keep it going.
Since 2018 Hollywood has been screwing up a lot of live action films from animation. Best Blizzard keep it to themselves and not let a woke director twist it for virtue signaling like they have been for everything.
For those that may not know: A) this is actually starcraft 2 and all of its expansion cinematics. none of these scenes are from Starcraft 1/brood war(the opening is a redux of Starcraft 1 Kerrigan being betrayed tho). B) ALOT of the story is missing here in this "movie" because most of the story is told through actual gameplay and voice dialogue from that gameplay. Its a pretty significant chunk of story missing aswell. for example alarak and his army is seen in a cutscene for a couple mins but says not 1 word and is a fairly important (and popular at the time) character. Same thing goes for the primal zerg which explains the origin of the zerg. Its really sad to see what became of blizzard because blizzards BS pretty much ruined the potential of this franchise. it SHOULD be bigger than League of Legends, ESPECIALLY as a esport, but blizzard just stopped caring after dropping the ball at some point.
Thanks for calling this out, especially since TH-cam is putting the 1998 StarCraft beneath the video. SC could have been a bestselling SciFi movie franchise, or MMORPG, or even first person shooter if they hadn't killed SC: Ghost. Instead we have skins and PACKS of skins.
Would be a total failure, we just are a minory and producers will have to make decisions about changing the plot for something much more casual and mainstream in order to get some of what they will expend on the production, yet it will be a total economic failure and SC will take probably about 4 to 6 movies to condense a coherent lore. And if is a succed, it wont be the SC we knows.
@@lylesenior9967 haha yeah! During a 3v3 Hunters game, 1 person would disconnect from the 2 hour dial up connection which ruined the gameplay for all of us!
Jim Raynor gets shit on the whole time but finally gets the girl in the end. Truly brought a smile to my face when I finished the game. What a story, I wish Fenix could have saw it.
The love story is the worst part about Starcraft 2 by far. Raynor from Starcraft 1 hated Kerrigan, but of course they had to spin it around to some bullshit love story.
@A. Jonez In the briefing before the Mission "New Gettysburg" in SC I, Raynor shows feelings for Kerrigan when he tries talking her out of going on the mission to stop the Protoss from destroying all life on the planet below, (Tarsonis I recall, Mar Sara was already cleared), so there was something between the two when she was human. However, when she became infested by about Zerg Mission 4 to 6ish, yes, Raynor showed more hatred for her, especially later on when Kerrigan assassinated Fenix, (no one cared about General Duke lol). Ultimately, I agree the love story in SC II is a bit overplayed and I miss the Kerrigan from Brood War, who was a brutal bitch that declared herself "queen bitch of the universe" before the final mission of SC I Brood War, The Omega.
You need to start from SC 1 then broodwar, then this one. There are several parties within each race, each with their own intentions that get intertwined several times then go separated ways, forging alliances, betrayals, plots and whatnot. So when you get to SCII a lot has happened already and has a lot of relevance already by the first second of the story on SCII. So, you cant really get it solely on this one.
Just remember. Put the chicken in the egg. Then smash the egg against the wall. Now rub the goo allover your body. Now smack your ass and watch it jiggle. Jiggle Jiggle Jiggle. lol.
Arcane was amazing, but we cant even try to grasp the potential of StarCraft... this story goes far beyond the void, just imagine what can be done with it if it lands in the right hands... I hope that one day this idea will get into the head of someone who can make it become a reality!
It's already too late for Starcraft to turn into something interesting. They could've done something with the ending of Starcraft 1. Instead they turned it into a Michael Bay movie. It's fun, but also terrible and predictable and empty now.
I don't know the back story of StarCraft or anything about it but i know it has a strong fan base. Have you ever read any of the Warhammer40k books? Kinda looks like that to me
@@allethre I can't blame you, this is a truly well written and greatly presented story and series.. play it, if you have the time for it ;) I've played them for countless hours for years.. I can't say that all of the parts are equally good, but you can't disappoint in any of them. Hats off for blizzard.
Admittedly, I know little to nothing about gaming. Are these scenes from a game? Anyway, my question is, why are some seemingly important scenes cut out? Like when the Queen busts out of her cage and what happened to John 19min into the thing? It's still the best cartoon I've ever seen, so I'll stop complaining.
Time flies lol. I play this game around age 20+ and now I'm around 45+ I'm still wonder till this day on why the Zerge choose the redhead as their leader.
True. Warfield's lines were amazing in this scene. It had so much impact esp "What if Raynor could see you right now?" It is among the best scenes in the series.
even if its 20 years ago I still get emotional when watching this, a true classic, imagine blizzard was able to make a quality game cinematics back then, how much more with the current technology. I hope MS can bring back and revive Starcraft.
That was an Ultralisk to be precise :P One of the Biggest Zerg land chad units you can make next to Brutalisks ;] And Viking pilots are amidst the best cause the transformation AIR-Ground mode can be lethal to unexperienced pilots - Now to witness such avionics as transforming AND blasting Miniguns? Spectacular (Kinda shame that Viking gets one tapped by Ultra xD)
@@natekerrigan7242 I'm sure he had a friend or family member in that tank that got crushed and had a lapse of enraged judgement. Maybe worth a miniseries that story ^_^
Designers were so much better at making games back then, those artist and storyteller were fantastic. I played SC, and SC2 countless times, such great campaigns.
It's hard, Netflix/Hollywood is too lazy to write up new stories. They only like to rewrite anything that is good and ready to turn them to shit show, like LOTR, Witcher...
@@hoangjoe StarCraft is based off of 40K, Starcraft and Warcraft only exist out of salvaging the assets they had already built by the time their deal with GW broke apart, so be careful when bitching about other people being too lazy to come up with something new
Blizzard games will always be the best. Star Craft is an absolute master piece of a game. the videos are unlike any other. I haven't played in a while but want to go back and watch the clips and found this. the story line for this game was absolutely crazy from the first star craft to now. I hope that MS does better then activision did with Blizzard games. KEEP STAR CRAFT AND BLIZZARD GAMES ALIVE!
I am always smiling excessively after watching all of this again! It is beyond clear to me that there is so much story in this game that making a Full TV Series to tell the whole Saga from the beggining (BroodWar- SC2) out of this would not only be possible, but would be amazing! I can only keep writing letter/email pleading for this to be so with my fingers crossed!
@@jondou7720 Yeah I loved that line, so I responded with one of the lines the Zealots said when you selected them :D I believe it's spelled Auir. If you clicked on Fenix enough, he'd say: "I fear no foe, for the Khala is my strength! I fear not Death, for our strength is Eternal!"
They would ruin it like everything else they tried to "make better" than the original. Look at Star Wars, Cowboy Bebop, Halo, or any other adaption of childhood greats. Best to leave it in our memories as the legend it is rather than be forced to live with the abomination it would become.
Just enjoy this because even though Warcraft the movie wasn't a complete dumpster fire they really didn't come close to hitting the mark, what makes you think they could do any better with StarCraft? Also remember the live action American dragon ball movie? Now that was a dumpster fire of pure ish and IMO it maybe possible to make a good live action DBZ movie I weigh more to it's never going to happen so I just enjoy the cartoon and not worry about a Hollywood dumpster fire
you can see the influence this game had on Halo in every way. the swarm the space solders the guys with energy blades the energy blade itself to name just a few thing
Ahhhh!!! Those late nights playing Starcraft with players from all over the world, often getting kicked out of games because my Internet connection (via dial-up modem) was too laggy 🤣
I loved this game. I can remember many 24 hour gaming sessions. Too many. But it was great. It’s sad to see the companies that presented these games turn to so much dust.
Missed the beginning bit. Love the intro when you first play Wings of Liberty campaign.The convict getting suited up its a brilliant scene. Theyre all brilliant scenes but that one just did it for me
How they came up with these epic stories or where they stem from is a mystery. Truly look forward to a movie series of this saga and Warcraft. If they could put green aside and make the dam movies they will benefit.
The last several levels in Brood War in SC I are incredibly intense. Highly recommend, and a great storyline. SC II has all kinds of fresh additions to the tech tree and the newer style of graphics in the cinematics definitely grew on me.
@@shawnadams1460 you and the fps guy have the right idea I think - the MMO space is still dominated by Warcraft, why would blizzard step on their own toes? But, a Titan 2.0? A MMOFPS with a persistent world, akin to a more fantasy version of Star Citizen or the like? I would absolutely play that. Or it would be pretty easy to make a hero shooter in that vein - but, they'd be stepping on their own toes again with that.
@@KamikazeCommie501 nice ignorant comment typical of the black part of warhammer fandom and the truth is that no, starcraft can not be copied from something that in the beginning was never original which is the case of warhammer since 40k started being a parody of everything famous in the 80's and copied and pasted several elements of warhammer fantasy and passed it to space to sell more. Both companies were inspired by several works before them to create their universes such as starshiptroopers, DUNE, alien xenomorphs, lord of the rings, DND among others so there is no copy.
warhammer will be cool but it will never be coherent, consistent and not committing contradictions because the narrative base is what makes the IP a disaster so much so that great people of GW say so, here you have one: "Games Workshop actively encourages that attitude - the idea of everyone coming to 40K and seeing something slightly different: the same thing from a different angle. An author can say Character X was on World Y in Year Z, and another author might contradict it in something else written several years later if he or she has a different idea. Choose which you prefer? Assume both are false sightings and Character X was nowhere near either world? It's your call. That's the point. There is no canon. There are several hundred creators all adding to the melting pot of the IP." - [Aaron Dembski-Bowden, co-author Horus Heresy series]
I love how Artanis goes to fight the Hybrid in front of Kerrigan like "yeah this is why you'd have lost to me" only for her to regen in a couple seconds and tear it clean in half like "nah THIS is why you'd have lost to ME."
really nostalgic, I played this game since I was 5 and now I am 17. this game makes me remember about the past, Before I didn't understand what the essence of this game was, after seeing this video I cried because now I understand the meaning of this game and the story of this game, it's amazing and epic
I spent so many hours playing this game as a child, I was on battle net 15 hours a day trying to rank #1 I never got it but I made top 100 , I started playing with Terran then fell in love with Zerg
@@rodrigocunha4103 can i ask you somethink about starcraft. is it worth to play this game and is it still popular. right now i am playing league of legends but its boring for me kind bc there is not fun and comunity is very toxic whih i dont like at all
@Johnny NoCare didnt see full cinema of this movie, but i could say that i fall in love with kerrigan or should i say queen of the blade. i love story between jim and sarak kerrigan. also what could you say to me about zergs? didnt understund races, how many is there and whats the strongest?
@@malenicamultifaker6696 Just play it, it's amazing and stands the test of time. SC2 is still a legit eSport today, as long as you can hit 200+ APM, you'll have fun...don't watch TH-cam vids of Korean kids with 300 APM playing, it'll put you off. 3 races; Terran (Space Marines), Protoss (Eldar) and Zerg (Tyranids). All have very distinct strengths and weaknesses, you have to play the games through and A LOT of online PvP to understand this completely but if you understand what a 'build order' and a 'hard counter' is, you'll know what I'm talking about. Enjoy!
I still, after all these years, remember the first time I played the New Gettysburg scenario - the crushing realization of betrayal when Mensk abandoned Kerrigan...
@Louis I recall strategically placed bunkers, missile turrets near supply depots, and siege tanks in siege mode behind the bunkers but NO seige tanks near the Zerg base because they would often destroy a Zerg building and would cause mission failure; this was for defense, not victory. But yeah, it was a challenging map because expanding to get more resources required careful use of excess siege tanks and marines for anti aircraft, and only then could the victory fleet of Battle Cruisers could be built to defeat the Protoss with Yamato Guns.
@@sgt.freyrpepper1871 well said. I remember that expansion you had to find in the dark to the bottom left of your starting base. Man I was terrified to build new bases back then lol idk why but that fog of war was just so creepy and intriguing. 🎯 ✅

This is the first time I saw Starcraft. Truly a masterpiece.
The game is chess but in warp speed
This is my third time of watching this and it is still banging👍👌👍👍😎
This is just a small piece..
The complete story is through all the games from 1 till the end, within the gameplay, not to mention the books ;)
@@anubiszthedj I know it's just a glimpse but man I'm awed by the whole game.
@@allethre I can't blame you, this is a truly well written and greatly presented story and series.. play it, if you have the time for it ;)
I've played them for countless hours for years.. I can't say that all of the parts are equally good, but you can't disappoint in any of them. Hats off for blizzard.
This series is a masterpiece. Still my favourite IP of all time.
I pray Starcraft gets a proper comeback under Microsoft
End was shit....
nice
I would love to have a role if they ever cleared a movie from this
This is amazing we can see the full movie
You would hope they skipped human actors ( only voice)
me too
Admittedly, I know little to nothing about gaming. Are these scenes from a game? Anyway, my question is, why are some seemingly important scenes cut out? Like when the Queen busts out of her cage and what happened to John 19min into the thing? It's still the best cartoon I've ever seen, so I'll stop complaining.
so nostalgic game. over 20 years ago and still play this game till today.
Wait..... 20yrs already? 😱😱😱
@@adriantryingstuff hard to think that when its been decades since theyve done anything to it
Time flies lol.
I play this game around age 20+ and now I'm around 45+
I'm still wonder till this day on why the Zerge choose the redhead as their leader.
I do it for aiur
@@adriantryingstuff i was playing this in 97
The one where the general dies and his men keep asking for him always hits me, the general was one of the few characters i did like in these games
What scene is that?
@@BostonBruinsOWN Somewhere around 25:02
True. Warfield's lines were amazing in this scene. It had so much impact esp "What if Raynor could see you right now?" It is among the best scenes in the series.
When I was young I always played Starcraft on pc computer 1991 baby right here
This was very well done. Good Job to everyone who had a hand in making this. I hope you all go far.
even if its 20 years ago I still get emotional when watching this, a true classic, imagine blizzard was able to make a quality game cinematics back then, how much more with the current technology.
I hope MS can bring back and revive Starcraft.
Wow 20 years, that's sure so long story
Brought tears to my eyes just like back then
This is StarCraft II it was from 2010
@@sgtpain5173 maybe he means for the latest version.. Starcraft 1.. maybe
SC is still like and well. I play broodwar everyday
that scene ( 10:24 ) when the viking unit come from the skies and lands in front of a mammuthus pre firing in the floor, its just amazing.
omg i thought im the only one who like the pre firing, it's awesome!
@@makavelitrue4588 that's insane!!
That was an Ultralisk to be precise :P One of the Biggest Zerg land chad units you can make next to Brutalisks ;] And Viking pilots are amidst the best cause the transformation AIR-Ground mode can be lethal to unexperienced pilots - Now to witness such avionics as transforming AND blasting Miniguns? Spectacular (Kinda shame that Viking gets one tapped by Ultra xD)
@@natekerrigan7242 yeah i noticed it after commenting 😅
@@natekerrigan7242 I'm sure he had a friend or family member in that tank that got crushed and had a lapse of enraged judgement. Maybe worth a miniseries that story ^_^
In my opinion: StarCraft storyxis way much better than Star Wars. It deserves a proper movie saga!!! What a LEGEND!
YES
Designers were so much better at making games back then, those artist and storyteller were fantastic. I played SC, and SC2 countless times, such great campaigns.
It would be so awesome to get a movie or a Series based on Starcraft
It's hard, Netflix/Hollywood is too lazy to write up new stories. They only like to rewrite anything that is good and ready to turn them to shit show, like LOTR, Witcher...
YES! This would be great. I have wanted this for years
Starship troopers is pretty close
@@hoangjoe StarCraft is based off of 40K, Starcraft and Warcraft only exist out of salvaging the assets they had already built by the time their deal with GW broke apart, so be careful when bitching about other people being too lazy to come up with something new
The shot of her staring up to the sky, so reminiscient of the soldier in the intro to Brood War.
Every time I watch it again, the detail is high like a movie, so I think it would be nice to come out as a live-action movie!
Starcraft 2 Trilogy was an amazing set of story. Loved every second of it. I collected all 3 collectors for this game.
*I'm glad to know that this game has not been forgotten* :)
Blizzard games will always be the best. Star Craft is an absolute master piece of a game. the videos are unlike any other. I haven't played in a while but want to go back and watch the clips and found this. the story line for this game was absolutely crazy from the first star craft to now. I hope that MS does better then activision did with Blizzard games. KEEP STAR CRAFT AND BLIZZARD GAMES ALIVE!
I am always smiling excessively after watching all of this again! It is beyond clear to me that there is so much story in this game that making a Full TV Series to tell the whole Saga from the beggining (BroodWar- SC2) out of this would not only be possible, but would be amazing! I can only keep writing letter/email pleading for this to be so with my fingers crossed!
That intro is the most epic thing I will probably ever see in my life & I still have a long way 2 go.
48:08 most epic moment. I used to love hearing protoss zealots saying that when they were created. 😊so nostalgic
"I _long_ for combat."
@@AtlasJotun I was referencing "My life for ire." Lol don't know if I spelled it right.
@@jondou7720 Yeah I loved that line, so I responded with one of the lines the Zealots said when you selected them :D
I believe it's spelled Auir.
If you clicked on Fenix enough, he'd say: "I fear no foe, for the Khala is my strength! I fear not Death, for our strength is Eternal!"
@@AtlasJotun Aiur, but you were pretty close.
@@lockwoodthexton Oh my... I'm not dyslexic at all :D
SCII is still a masterpiece! If there is no SC III in the future, at least we need new missions!
Oh So GREAT! I was only 14 when playing STARCRAFT. Got chills when I heard "POWER OVERLOAD!"
Still mind blowing. Peak storytelling. I will always keep hope for those days to come back.
Wish they would make movies out of this someday. My fondest memories of the young age.
YES!!!!
Like we find crystals on Mars!
They would ruin it like everything else they tried to "make better" than the original. Look at Star Wars, Cowboy Bebop, Halo, or any other adaption of childhood greats. Best to leave it in our memories as the legend it is rather than be forced to live with the abomination it would become.
Meh. Worth it.
Just enjoy this because even though Warcraft the movie wasn't a complete dumpster fire they really didn't come close to hitting the mark, what makes you think they could do any better with StarCraft? Also remember the live action American dragon ball movie? Now that was a dumpster fire of pure ish and IMO it maybe possible to make a good live action DBZ movie I weigh more to it's never going to happen so I just enjoy the cartoon and not worry about a Hollywood dumpster fire
@@SkarKingg
Look up Trunks vs Cell live action and see.
40:54 power overwhelming! never fails to give me goosebumps!
[Enter] Blacksheepwall [Enter]
Blizzard and their epic cinematic always giving me chills every single time
you can see the influence this game had on Halo in every way.
the swarm
the space solders
the guys with energy blades
the energy blade itself
to name just a few thing
This along with a few other pieces of Media have influenced most of syfy shooters
I love how the ultralisk completely shrugs off a siege cannon round and keeps going.
Awesome!
Gameplay accurate lol.
Better than anything Hollywood is doing. I miss oldschool blizzard
Yea , you got that right. Hollywood is awful these days
yeah, even when they had crappy graphics in the 90s they still had awesome story telling.
@@jujuria13Broodwar graphics and pixel art is timeless
If they managed this level of cinematic in OG and Brood War, that would be a masterpiece.
To je moja cica. 😍😍😍💖💝💋 Cice se nikada ne daju ali se zato radosno uzimaju.
Ahhhh!!! Those late nights playing Starcraft with players from all over the world, often getting kicked out of games because my Internet connection (via dial-up modem) was too laggy 🤣
Still one of the best. Gameplay, cinematics and story hold up to this day.
I still play this in May 2022. I've been playing since 1998. Love this game.
Better than many movies today.
I don't even play STARCRAFT.
The cinematic of the destruction of Shakuras is on point with the best of anything Hollywood has made. Fantastic.
This collection is so rich in terms of story that it can be used in different titles in various genres
Still going strong in SCII it is such a masterpiece nothing can replace it.
I loved this game. I can remember many 24 hour gaming sessions. Too many. But it was great. It’s sad to see the companies that presented these games turn to so much dust.
Man this was so good. Ive never played these games but im happy with just watching these videos cause theyre so good
Then you should try it!! The game is awesome too!!
Not gonna lie, if I had enough space on my computer I'd install both Starcraft 1 and 2, just to play them for nostalgia
pretty sure they take up about 13kb in hdd space
Its a tiny amount of data anymore
You can buy SC and Brood War and it stays on the battlenet cloud.
Are you still using Windows 95?
@@MarcoAshford 😂
more plot here than most modern movies
Legendary game. I went so far as creating my own epic maps for single player.
Starcraft is the greatest game of all-time.
When cinematics are wayyyyy better than modern movies
Ah Kerrigan....my favorite sacrificial pawn in history, literally left to die for no reason at all.
I never played the game but I've watched the cinematics cause the story was so interesting and the character designs seemed really cool.
The game is EXCELLENT! Highly recommend playing it if you like RTS games at all.
Same here. I've always wanted to play it, just never got around to it. This story is amazing though
Star craft is dope af. I used to play a lot even tho I wasnt any good.
Plaaaaaaaay iiiiiiit! Lol
@@shawnadams1460 What starcraft game is being shown in this full cinematic movie?
This brings me to my childhood. Used to play Star craft when i was a kid in a Pentium 3 PC with 8mb video card. 😅😅😅
StarCraft deserves a comeback. Maybe even a Star Trek Online style of MMORPG
Nothing like an excellent game movie to tide ypu over on a Sunday evening
Missed the beginning bit. Love the intro when you first play Wings of Liberty campaign.The convict getting suited up its a brilliant scene. Theyre all brilliant scenes but that one just did it for me
This was before its time i swear.......top tier up to this day
A trully Master piece. One of the Best PC games I have ever played
How they came up with these epic stories or where they stem from is a mystery. Truly look forward to a movie series of this saga and Warcraft. If they could put green aside and make the dam movies they will benefit.
I have never played this game, but now I really want to! Damn that was awesome!!!
all those scenes are from Starcraft 2, need to start from Starcraft 1 to get the full back story
The last several levels in Brood War in SC I are incredibly intense. Highly recommend, and a great storyline. SC II has all kinds of fresh additions to the tech tree and the newer style of graphics in the cinematics definitely grew on me.
I was always hoping for a world of star craft and I would happily watch it if they made an actual movie or better yet a well made series
It was in development and it failed to launch :/
@@57ashdot well that’s lame
I could see a FPS or Arena style game for it
I honestly think that a World of Starcraft could be done, we know the lore, and I would definitely play it
@@shawnadams1460 you and the fps guy have the right idea I think - the MMO space is still dominated by Warcraft, why would blizzard step on their own toes?
But, a Titan 2.0? A MMOFPS with a persistent world, akin to a more fantasy version of Star Citizen or the like? I would absolutely play that.
Or it would be pretty easy to make a hero shooter in that vein - but, they'd be stepping on their own toes again with that.
Can never hope to be even a tiny fraction as cool or even as coherent as Warhammer 40k.
whats that
@@SI29222 That's where Starcraft copied all its content from.
@@KamikazeCommie501 nice ignorant comment typical of the black part of warhammer fandom and the truth is that no, starcraft can not be copied from something that in the beginning was never original which is the case of warhammer since 40k started being a parody of everything famous in the 80's and copied and pasted several elements of warhammer fantasy and passed it to space to sell more. Both companies were inspired by several works before them to create their universes such as starshiptroopers, DUNE, alien xenomorphs, lord of the rings, DND among others so there is no copy.
warhammer will be cool but it will never be coherent, consistent and not committing contradictions because the narrative base is what makes the IP a disaster so much so that great people of GW say so, here you have one:
"Games Workshop actively encourages that attitude - the idea of everyone coming to 40K and seeing something slightly different: the same thing from a different angle. An author can say Character X was on World Y in Year Z, and another author might contradict it in something else written several years later if he or she has a different idea. Choose which you prefer? Assume both are false sightings and Character X was nowhere near either world? It's your call. That's the point. There is no canon. There are several hundred creators all adding to the melting pot of the IP."
- [Aaron Dembski-Bowden, co-author Horus Heresy series]
I love how Artanis goes to fight the Hybrid in front of Kerrigan like "yeah this is why you'd have lost to me" only for her to regen in a couple seconds and tear it clean in half like "nah THIS is why you'd have lost to ME."
really nostalgic, I played this game since I was 5 and now I am 17. this game makes me remember about the past,
Before I didn't understand what the essence of this game was, after seeing this video I cried because now I understand the meaning of this game and the story of this game, it's amazing and epic
i wish i could be 5 again too
You did not cry
You still so young boy. There are hundreds of new future games you going to love and when you are 45 like me you going to have loads of nostalgic
When Blizzard was a real gaming company and actually cared about their products.
Amon vs. Diablo would be an epic battle.
Starcraft has THE best cinematics. Change my mind
I spent so many hours playing this game as a child, I was on battle net 15 hours a day trying to rank #1 I never got it but I made top 100 , I started playing with Terran then fell in love with Zerg
Me too and i back to game today!
@@rodrigocunha4103 can i ask you somethink about starcraft. is it worth to play this game and is it still popular. right now i am playing league of legends but its boring for me kind bc there is not fun and comunity is very toxic whih i dont like at all
@Johnny NoCare didnt see full cinema of this movie, but i could say that i fall in love with kerrigan or should i say queen of the blade. i love story between jim and sarak kerrigan. also what could you say to me about zergs? didnt understund races, how many is there and whats the strongest?
ya. love the game. lol i lost my game cd. :(
@@malenicamultifaker6696 Just play it, it's amazing and stands the test of time. SC2 is still a legit eSport today, as long as you can hit 200+ APM, you'll have fun...don't watch TH-cam vids of Korean kids with 300 APM playing, it'll put you off.
3 races; Terran (Space Marines), Protoss (Eldar) and Zerg (Tyranids). All have very distinct strengths and weaknesses, you have to play the games through and A LOT of online PvP to understand this completely but if you understand what a 'build order' and a 'hard counter' is, you'll know what I'm talking about.
Enjoy!
Wow, watching this I feel like I missed out on playing a very important game. Looks like an amazing game and story.
I mean it's not too late, it's free on battlenet and it still has a pretty big playerbase
She should have just taken her revenge on the man that left her forget in the first place. Leave the rest of humanity alone.
I still, after all these years, remember the first time I played the New Gettysburg scenario - the crushing realization of betrayal when Mensk abandoned Kerrigan...
That map was hard as hell the first time through it! Haha
@Louis I recall strategically placed bunkers, missile turrets near supply depots, and siege tanks in siege mode behind the bunkers but NO seige tanks near the Zerg base because they would often destroy a Zerg building and would cause mission failure; this was for defense, not victory.
But yeah, it was a challenging map because expanding to get more resources required careful use of excess siege tanks and marines for anti aircraft, and only then could the victory fleet of Battle Cruisers could be built to defeat the Protoss with Yamato Guns.
@@sgt.freyrpepper1871 well said. I remember that expansion you had to find in the dark to the bottom left of your starting base. Man I was terrified to build new bases back then lol idk why but that fog of war was just so creepy and intriguing. 🎯 ✅
@@32kirby32 The fog of war is a true military concept as well. A lot of information is not known in a given area where there are no air craft patrols.
Omfg this was epic 😭😭😭 just awesome video guys i cant tell you how great this was after playing the game my whole life almost im 24 now and i played this the first xmas it was out ider how long ago it was but this was like bring my whole experience of this game from day 1 till now together thank you for this
Oh boy, your poor mother.. It could be hard to give birth to a keyboard and a mouse...
It's out from exactly 24 years now;)
If only Warhammer 40k had production quality like this
