>killing literally billions of people and wiping out entire planets is okay if you are a woman that got slighted onceWhat the actual fuck were they thinking?
Not a white man => innocent
>>724113451was kerrigan supposed to be a mulatto? it felt like her skin tone was different every time she was shown
>>724113535She was clearly white at first, I think, but they made her more brown-coded with the infestation
>>724113535she got more brown the more evil she was, just like IRL
>>724113403Shes so powerful and instrumental to the survival of the whole universe that the that the notion of "ok" kind of loses meaning, OP. The problem lies more withhin the fact that James Raynor decided to simp for her no matter what
>>724113856>" i will shoot you, darling " >" i will protect you, my queen "for fuck's sake
>>724113856Just like IRL it is the SIMPs who are the heart of the problem.
lol, Heart of the swarm pissed off so many people, my older bro included.
>>724113403It was a warning. You didn't heed the warning and refused to sail West, so the they found the orcs who did.
>>724113403>is okayWhen the fuck was it ever presented as ok?
>>724113403Wings of Liberty > Nova >>> Legacy of the Void >>>>> Hots
>>724113403> is okay if you are a woman that got slighted onceOnly ok if you are a very cute woman.I love HOTS campaign and seeing Kerrigan slowly becoming full dere for Raynor.
I know SC2 gets a lot of shit but I thought the Protoss campaign was insanely kino
>>724114473>slaughters countless people>raynor just forgives her>humanity and its various factions seem totally content with her continued existence >plot forces that shes the one special mary sue womyn the survival of the universe depends on for some reason
>>724113535Ginger+dyslexia.
>>724113403I don’t think anyone thinks Kerrigan is a good person. She’s clearly in the wrong
>>724114740>>raynor just forgives herBut that's because Raynor is a fucked up case of a human too. >>humanity and its various factions seem totally content with her continued existence It was thought that she could be beneficial. Otherwise it's still made clear that she is a fucking monster.
>>724114740>>humanity and its various factions seem totally content with her continued existenceWasnt Mengsk the majority of Terran forces? and they sure as shit werent okay with her being aliveRaynor and his simps were like a small faction of terrorist rebels IIRC
>>724113694kek
kerrigan was possessed by an evil alien entitywhy are people ignoring this?
>>724114952>But that's because Raynor is a fucked up case of a human too.In all fairness, I dont get why Kerrigan turning back into bug form made him seethe so much. Nothing really changed aside from her powering up. Maybe it makes the sex more awkward?
>>724115257we spent 15 hours or so getting trying to get her back to ginger mode and she went back to bug 3 years later
>>724115374Still the same person inside and zerg pussy probably feels better as well. Plus, imagine how her tongue tastes
>>724115248>kerrigan was possessed by an evil alien entityyeah its called estrogen
Abathur was the best thing that come out from HOTS and isn't even close
>>724116243That essence obsessed primal Zerg grew on me too. It was weirdly innocent
>>724114497For me it's just Nova the end.
>>724113403When do you kill billions in the campaign?
>>724115248She committed more murders AFTER she was de-zerged and freed from Amon. Why are you ignoring that?>slaughters millions of protoss warning their friends about the queen of blades returning>slaughters and dooms entire planets just for working under mengsk>kills millions on korhal during her invasion>kills the entirety of Warfield's forces on char, and hypocritically spares ONE dropship of marines, as if that makes up for itI went through this whole trilogy, she's an irredeemable bitch.
>>724114710>WoL is about Jimmy mucking abiut and kinda doing a rebellion, sorta, until he starts thinking about Kerrigan>HotS is WOMAN MOMENT the Campaign>LotV is Artanis personally deciding to fight God and winning after building a crowd to cheer him on while he does itThe Epilogue was completely unnecessary, they should have just had Artanis beat Amon to death on his own.
>>724117334>EN TARO ADUN!>EN TARO TASSADAR!>EN TARO FENIX!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DOmJhXdy3aU
>>724117334Raynors story was cool outside of the simping. WoL had the best unlock progression too
>>724114497So how come SC Ghost got canceled?
>>724118751Just speculation but I'm betting that WoW exploding into a money printer combined with the game getting delayed through the generation change from 6th to 7th killed it
>>724118751Blizz had received their mandate "no hot women allowed"
>>724113856She never deserved it. they fucked her over
>>724113403The flimsy writing of starcraft aside It's retarded to think that a character is implied to be good or even redeemable just because they're the main character. You're right, she did not have to massacre all those people to dethrone Mengsk, it's just a weird part of the story that you have to take on faith actually makes sense. But yeah she is just a person, the Zerg is much more powerful with a human psionic in charge and that's why she's the prophesied lisan al ghaib the universe needs to get the good ending. Bait OP I know
>>724116546Yeah you're right you only have to kill 567 human units in the story hurr durr retard
>>724113403>literally the specialest superest bestest strongest importantest amazingest character in the entire super universe who is destined to become godit takes genuine SKILL to wank a character this hard
>>724116546When she orders Zagara and other brood mothers to wipe out entire planets as they are pushing into Dominion space
>>724120680I know the writing isn't amazing but please exercise your ability to have your own experience of the story
>>724117334Alarak was fucking KINOAnd then I realized why, voiced by the actor that played Q on Star Trek
>>724118751It was literal shit, I played it at comicon.
>>724122142I would say that his voice acting was, mmmmmmAcceptable.
>>724120706Don't forget the infestation.
>Tychus is 100x more based than woe-is-me Jim Cucknor>Abathur is 100x more based than always-on-the-rag genocidal Kerrigan>Alarak is 100x more based than goody two shoes ArtanisWhat did Blizz mean by this?
Heart of the Swarm is trash, both in story and gameplay. It was right at the peak of Blizzard's asshurt over dota, and they made every fucking mission focused around Kerrigan instead of her army. Kerrigan is an awful character, Raynor is a retarded simp, and Mengsk is an evil caricature of how he was in sc1. The only thing worse than HotS is the LotV epilogue, which is the single worst thing Blizzard ever shat out. WoL and the main story of LotV were fairly decent.
>>724123263Artanis is too much of an optimistic moralfag but he's still a gigachad. Don't lump him in with the others.
>>724123263all i could think of playing WoL is that I wanted to play Tychus' campaign
>>724113535The Overmind fixed her ginger genetic defects.
what the fuck were they thinking?
>>724123263Artanis is great though. He was the rock-solid leader that the Protoss needed and he stood his ground well enough that Alarak respected him.
not trying to be edgy or contrarian, what exactly did Mengsk do wrong?The Zerg might as well be demons from the eyes of humanity.
>>724116190great post Jay
>>724123263Alarak and Artanis can only achieve success balancing each other out. Alarak would have got himself BTFO in that emperors duel thing if they played it his way
>>724126076Abandoning Kerrigan at Tarsonis but he couldn't have known how valuable a piece Kerrigan was to the Overmind. I can't remember how culpable he was for Moebius/Narud's hybrid shit but it seemed contrived that Mengsk was involved at all.
>>724126076The charges?He was too based.
>>724126076He declared war on the Protoss without establishing diplomatic relations and he used the Zerg as a weapon despite their unstoppable nature.
>>724126076>>724127006Aside from double crossing Raynor and Kerrigan, nothing. Literally. HOTS has the worst case of rooting for the villain in any videogameYou can say he's evil because he was a dictator but there even was some freedom of speech under his rule.
>>724127583This is the real answer. Only a retard wouldnt ally with the Protoss against a insectoid feral race that wants to consume both your species for biomass
>>724128056If in the real world we were made to choose between studying feral space insects or contacting an intelligent space race we would 100% go with the bugs.You cant trust superintelligent aliens to be mutualistic. That's actually amazing science fiction writing.
>>724113403Jim R*ynor murdered Tychus for this btw
>>724113535This is what she started off in Wings of Liberty but at some point changed that.Kind of like how the Medic was way more attractive than the crackhead version they ended up making.
>>724126076>what exactly did Mengsk do wrong?He turned into a failed lobotomy patient in SC2.
Is there a lore reason why broodmothers/sc2 queens look more protoss-like? Or is it blizz just being lazy?
>>724128593thank god hes burning in hell now and Tychus is sipping mint juleps with big titty bimbos in Heaven
>>724128832Using more Protoss DNA. Abathur mentions this
>>724126076Off the top of my head>Massacred New Gettysburg using the tactic he lies about the Confederacy using>Was a paranoid bastard who accepted no threats to his rule at all>As such, ruled as a bloody tyrant>Any worlds that weren't core worlds were treated as slave camps, while the core worlds were fed nothing but propaganda>Declared war on the Protoss solely to prevent the Templar from exposing his shitIn the first mission of WoL you see an entire town beibg rounded up to be shipped off as slaves, with Dominion guards gunning down an attempted escapee.
>>724128832Amon's Xel'naga found the Zerg on Zerus and changed them to be the counterpart of the Protoss. That alone might be it, they're kind of two adopted siblings, transformed by the same hands. But there's also the fact that the swarm have been eating protoss for a long time, and Protoss are the perfect species to assimilate when you need to make commanders like broodmothers.
>>724129616Their eyes being glowy like that without pupils is about them being psionics btw, humans get that too.
>>724128832Yeah its pretty deliberate they have the psionic attribute ingame and and are the only zerg unit capable of communicating with other species.
>>724113621That's funny when you think about it.
>>724113535Just a character design thing. She was a pale ginger with blue eyes, she just ended up losing her paleness when her character design changed. Not everything is blackwashing, or wasn't, back then
>>724126076They were going to have him going full on into the hybrid experiments so he could maintain power but playing straight into Duran's hand but they cut that plot line so he's just a big meenie head who once read Machiavelli's the Prince
>>724113403Post her alien ass
>>724113403i thought she just got zerged. how come she turned into a migger
>>724130031https://youtu.be/Aj47_qT8dFYIt's obviously not just a last minute redesign since they wouldnt forget her race 3 years later, specially considering how much thought everything else has.My headcanon is that dezerging leaves leftover melanin + the braids from her queen of blades phase
>>724133269>My headcanon is that dezerging leaves leftover melanin
>>724122142He's got quite a few evil voice acting stunts because of the Q role and he always knocks it out of the park. Dude just loves being evil
>>724122142>Is this the best healing you can do?Snibbedy snab, artanis
>>724113403Maybe the faggots at Blizzard should not had been drinking the breast milk of their employees. Forcing senior talent and staff to leave with a severance pay. That way the company wouldn't have to save face with making characters gay, and female characters untouchable.I mean, just a thought.
I really like HotS as a campaign but that's probably just because Abathur is so fucking cool. It probably wouldn't have been nearly as interesting to go through without him
>>724134359Well don't worry, the one novel made after the Amon shit has made him a villain because he's still trying to make the zerg do zerg stuff so he remains interesting
Wasn't she latino-black mix with dreads in the original?
>>724134141Honestly almost the whole cast of 80s Star Trek is underrated as fuck. Even Data is an elite actor IMO
>>724113403I could fix her
