Jim's page
I personally found this a lot more interesting than the "Story So Far" update.

He looks a bit better "ingame" than int he artwork.
But I'm going to miss old jimmy, even if he only had 50 frames.
Oh my god. Look at the person in the orange jumpsuit.
Fenix has REALLY let himself go.

Ten bucks says they bring Fenix back somehow. I'm thinking as an "AI".

I have a strange feeling that Jim Raynor will soon work with the UED to defeat the Dominion and later betray them or vise versa. But no doubt that Jim Raynor finding artifacts has anything to do with UED. And since Jim Raynor has vengeance against Kerrigan, though in Battle.net, she said he's her only hope.

Spoilers
After all, Jim Raynor and Taldarin rescued Stukov and cured him from infestation. With that, I have a strong feeling that the UED will be involved.

Yeah, the new Raynor looks younger, but then again, I always thought he was bald on top. Oh wait, because he WAS. :P

Well, I take back the younger part. It's just the hair. His face looks different though...

Blizzard probably thought making everybody ugly was pretty funny at the time.

I think Metzen is just kind of bad at drawing human faces. Was I the only one who ever looked in the manual and saw the concept art?

But whoa, man, it's like SeN discovered the secret to time travel...

Like always, the ending will reveal another EPIC PLOT!!!

Raynor Finds the Doodan... er... Kydarhin crystals and revives Buddy Knee... er... Fenix.

Fenix kills kerrigan, Raynor dies. UED Returns to Earth, Dominion is crushed. Terrans and Protoss WOrk together, where they later contact earth and rebuild Auir... The Xel'Naga were in this too... hehehhe...

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 Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it.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?
[2026-6-21. : 4:25 am]
Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings
[2026-6-20. : 6:15 pm]
Ultraviolet -- Yeah he's talked about a lot of that stuff in his casts before. It seems plausible. Especially knowing how Blizzard of yesteryear operated.

NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.
[2026-6-20. : 3:43 pm]
NudeRaider -- Contained nothing new for me. Didn't know all building's behavior, but very much all unit's. Also Terran balance whine - also nothing new :lol:

Oh_Man -- makes me wonder if SEN knows anything about the topic
