I LOVE Starcraft 1. This is probably the most anticipated game for me right now. I cannot wait.

I never got into Starcraft, but I'm not unhappy Starcraft 2 is coming out.

Maybe I'll get into it. :)

I've been seeing a lot of complaints on some forums about the look and feel of the new starcraft. People are complaining that it looks too "cartoony" like warcraft 3. Honestly now, the game isn't even out yet and those low res videos are not doing justice for this game.

I'm also seeing complaints about how some of the new units are a ripoff of some other RTS games. I'm sure Blizzard won't let us down. They like to take their time with development and not rush it, which is probably the best treatment a game can get. Thank god for Blizzard.

Well there's been enough RTSs now that NOT ripping another off is a little difficult...I mean at this point they'll have to start tearing off from the basics if they want different units, and then we'll hear "Why do we have units that form the basic army unit AND the builders!? WTF, Blizzard, are you stupid!?" instead of "Why do we have units that like other RTS units. WTF BLIZZARD?!"

Result: Don't try to meet the demands of the complaints, especially when you cater to an audience that will literally have the EXACT same people complain about a game being different from the original that they loved AND for it being the same as the original they loved (yes, a lot of gamers do this...sad isn't it?)

Ok, there's no way Q is just finding these. He either:

A) Makes these himself

B) Has fairies that go out through Google, Ask Jeeves, and various other sites that offer image searching that bring the pictures to Q's manufacturing factory in Sweden, where they then go through a leprechaun assembly line where they each put in 1 letter to create the phrase, and the finished product then reaches Q through his fax machine for his approval. Should he like the product, he will stamp it saying "Approval Stage 1 Complete" before he cuts the stamp out and then puts it on his fridge with a magnet and a clipboard holding all the approved stamp cut-outs. Following this, Q e-mails the leprechauns who will then foward the e-mail to magical gnomes that have Q's account information so that they can post the images for him, thus leading to our humorous enjoyment.

Those are the only 2 possible explanations.

I have made none of these myself.

All right. Kill the leprechauns so you can stop getting these pictures then...Wait, then we get no Lucky Charms. KILL THE GNOMES! Wait, shit! Then we don't have anyone protecting the garden. We definitely can't sacrifice the fairies. That means no more Zelda. SHIT!

Fuck it, we can sacrifice our gardens. Wait, then Miyamoto won't be inspired to make any more Pikmin games...dammit.

Exactly. Just like what you'd said.

Leprechauns make Lucky Charms.

Zelda can't exist without fairies.

Gnomes protect gardens.

Without gardens, there is no inspiration for Pikmin.

How hard is that to grasp?
