Uh, just noticing, when I went to change my signature, and I had to buy it, and like there are crazy prices like 544 minerals. Is there a reason they're so expensive?



None.

Relatively ancient and inactive

They scale with international food prices. Moose did that so SENners would feel the pain of a global financial breakdown :(.

Seems to be working. On that note, I now have TWO Mugs of Moose Appreciation.

Average you paid for each: -29 minerals
Does selling items to other people even work?



None.

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically

Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
