Activision Blizzard clearly didn’t think this project needed that much investment as the RTS genre hasn’t exactly had the greatest success lately. I will blame the cut content on the time constraint and lack of resources.
But if Blizzard doesn’t want to invest into this game, why should we?
dude he literally just posted above why blizzard backed off on the idea of a full reimagining. It was never the budget, it was the overwhelming feedback from the player base in the east. They already had a fully imagined cutscene of the culling with new voices, map and camera angles and they were already working on more.
This is exactly why I posted this thread…
It baffles me that they’ve broken their initial promise by no longer adding in the amended lore + voice acting, but I’m confused why they couldn’t just offer three versions of the campaign:
Classic Version - The standard campaign with the old graphics
Enhanced Version - The standard campaign, but with new HD graphics
Reforged Version - The campaign in HD, with new lore/voice acting/cutscenes
Wouldn’t this literally just make everyone happy at literally NO additional work other than what wa…
It was never about budget, but incompetence. Competent game designers would have sat down and said, “instead of stripping away what we had, let’s go all out on the plans, but we’ll add a 3rd option for players to have the original campaign but just in HD”
Boom. Done. All are happy. But nope!
