I was wondering how Blizzard's best creative minds would ruin an RTS and make it live service...
AFAIK the majority of people responsible for their legacy RTS games have left, so I figure they feel less capable of even trying.

#12All I could think about watching the trailer was that this must be a game based on Starship Troopers.

#13"Set to launch 2030" Why even bother to announce this now? I only see downsides in mentioning something that far out.
“First time?” Buster Scruggs meme

#14Incredible to see how disconnected Blizzard is from its customers. One more shooter, when we wanted the next RTS.
>"when we wanted the next RTS."
You think you do, but you don't.

#16Are we finally going to get StartCraft: Ghost ?
ikr, that's the first thought I had too. Looking forward to Warcraft Adventures next. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warcraft_Adventures:_Lord_of_t...

Maybe to protect the project from internal politics?

#18Impressive. They managed to turn the hype video in a more depressing parody of Starship Troopers.

I guess they’re wanting to go after the void Bungie left with Destiny?
I can’t tell if this is too late a move though or if there will be a void and a desire still by the time this releases.
Is there any other studio working on releasing a similar game already since it was obvious Destinys life was short lived for a while with Bungies focus on Marathon?

#20Blizzard has always had some of the best cinematics in the industry. They're usually 100x better than the actual game. I wish they had a movie studio.
