Raynor’s struggle between saving Kerrigan and doing the right thing a really interesting personal struggle and that goes out the window completely when saving Kerrigan is objectively the right thing to do."Ībsolutely true. "Ngl I think WoL’s story would be much more interesting without the prophecy. I get his voice lines are predictable, but what else could they have done? What context would be necessary for you to not burst out laughing when Zeratul says "I bring tidings of doom"? Because having a vision where your whole race evaporates in front of you is pretty well, uh yeah. One last point, if Raynor meet valerian mengsk before completing the media blitz mission, then Raynor would have an even bigger motive to deface Mengsk. The odin missions are the only missions where raynor was hunting mengk, even then, denying the dominion the odin might have done the galaxy a favor, To help more people, after all James Raynor said it himself in the campaign, that he didn't want to settle down with Hanson, that it was too late. Raynor wanted the artifacts because he didn't want them fall into the wrong hands (Kerrigan killed billions and mengsk oppressed billions) and it made them a lot of money. The only two branches of missions that do not allign with this philosophy are the artifact missions and odin missions Those last two kinda blend into each other but most missions comprise helping hanson/tosh/nova/random civilians/kerrigan. You make an excellent point, however Raynor's motives seem to be aligned with helping those in need first, thrash the dominion second and dealing with mengsk third. Raynor doesn't know that Mengsk's replacement wouldn't be just as bad as him, and he would be reluctant to get involved in political conquest, particularly after the events of Brood War. I played all the campaigns and the UED one is my favorite followed by WOL.Įdit: Yea sc1's overall story was better because it was profound, while WOL just had a great story. I respect your opinion and all, but calling WOL kiddie tier was a bit harsh. Weren't there people who were oppressed by the dominion in literally the first mission of WOL? Saying stuff like they took their families and they were shooting civilians, all in front of Jimmies eyes?Īlso kerrigan in WOL still rocks, its just they butchered her character in Heart of the Swarm. Wasn't mengsk hunting Jim raynor because he was a terrorist? Wouldn't that be a good motive for Jim raynor hunting down mengsk? "Raynor should not be leading a rebellion against Mengsk - his campaign against the Confederacy put Mengsk in power, so Raynor should be reluctant to destroy any government he doesn't have a clearly good replacement for, and even then it wouldn't be terribly likely." I know zeratuls character shifted a lot after Brood war but I think I would be pretty depressed too after I found out the world was ending. Here's all the dialogue zeratul has in WOL So why is the writing for HotS sooooo much worse by comparison? WoL may not be Shakespeare, but it's pretty awesome sci Fi. Was there a change in writing staff? Or massive last minute changes? Was there a writer's strike? I just can't wrap my brain around what reason there could be for such a nose dive in writing quality. As well as making her angsty and "edgy".Ĭompare the zeratul vs kerrigan fight in Wings of Liberty to their fight in Heart of the Swarm. They have to shoehorn numerous contrivances into the story to justify turning kerrigan back into zerg, RIGHT after you save her. Kerrigan and Raynor both become weirdly cheesy and paper thin. I know it's tougher to write compelling non-human characters, but come on. The bar fight scene, the music, Raynor's revolver with one bullet, Tychus in general.Īnd then Heart of the Swarm comes in and the writing turns to hot garbage. I absolutely love the Wings of Liberty storyline. r/wow /r/diablo /r/hearthstone /r/heroesofthestorm /r/overwatchĮvery year or two I get the itch to blast through the SC2 campaign.
