I like it but the zerg look way to fake. They just don't look right.

The Zerg buildings need more animation, (like how they breathed in the original one) and not look so drawn. Also, the Spine Crawlers need to look more menacing. At least things are looking somewhat better.

Please keep in mind it's been said everything will be polished once everything's decided on how it should be. The stuff you see is mostly just partially done, likely. They're well aware that the zerg look shiney and crap from all the comments they've received, i'm sure.

then keep in mind that blizzard will listen to people's complaints, and will make it fair and balanced.

um okay? where did this come from?

I love how we get someone to comment on it that knows nothing about the development ("zerged"). Frankly, seeing some of these vids so far hasn't been worth anything. What's a minute of watching workers mine worth? but a few at least let you see where the graphics are going.

The first three are worthless, I don't know why crazy bothered to post them. But the three I listed is about 7 minutes of high resolution gameplay from one players perspective.

Yeah hence my last comment. They were okay, but it didn't really show much gameplay... just a lot of the same crap over and over... it was weird. But it was okay for showing off graphics a bit.

It proves that the graphics are very fine.

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 Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it.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

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
