Well, not dead actually :P

Thought I'd share this interview I stumbled upon.  Some nice stuff.

Did you bring any of your experience at Westwood -- I guess it's EA LA -- to Blizzard?

My guess is that the game has been "done" for about a year and they´ve spent the last year balancing multi umpitmillion times.

 Easily the most anticipated game of my life.

There are some mutliplayer battle reports on youtube that are really interesting.  Really looking forward to this, although I'm sure just like in Warcraft 3 most online games will involve me getting raped by Koreans.

They don't seem to have added much to their website in the last few months. Still barely any information on the Zerg. I wonder if they are not making any progress...

Standard Blizz MO. They never update their site in any meaningful way the last 6 months before release.

 I remember waiting for War3 to come out. There were going to be 5 races- the burning legion and an unnamed races speculated to be gnomes. They had all these notions for heroes that never materialised. Priestess of the Moon was going to ride an owl until suprisingly late in development.

Orcs sure did get gay after WC2. The series lost alot for me when it stopped being bloodthirsty hordes attacking the men of the west.

Fortunately, SC's plot is delightful, and SC2 shows all signs of continuing this.

Who are the Southerners in StarCraft? The Zerg?

The confederitard hoomins, of course.

Just got an email from Blizzard inviting me to the starcraft beta. Currently downloading 1.64 GB worth of RTS-goodness. Thankfully, I'm on Verizon FIOS, but even still the download is going to take about an hour. I only wish that exams were not coming up.  :mad:

Beta keys are going for $200-$400 on ebay/craigslist. I'd sell that shit if I got one.  :lol:
