SC2 is one of my favorite games. This reminds me of how it felt to play SC2 the first time. All first person games could be a longer story. But this played well. I look forward to more combat and exploring the map more. The good part, they did not repeat the mistakes of SC3. The good part about SCO not using the SC2 races and characters means that is the other guys still make their sequel, it won't conflict at all. As for all the negative posts about the fight over the rights and stuff, yes, we all wish they worked this out way sooner, but this game is still worth it.
