The topic of this post is not planned but suddenly occurred. It doesn’t matter because I think to write some days. The day come little early than my thought. I think now is not bad time to post it. I know the meaning of blog is web based log, but I think it is web based diary. But the top is more and more private..
Last night, now is June 11th 11 p.m. and at June 11th 1 a.m.
I saw the ending credits of starcraft brood war.
I know starcraft in 2024 is not ordinary, I know it is very very old game. It is not first time to see starcraft ending credit. (It may be first time to see ending credit of remastered version.)
Even remastered version is released in 2017, it is late to see ending credit first time.
My thought on seeing the ending of brood war is..
1. The zerg of S H (Production of hydralisk) is overwhelming weapon!
It is great.. Fully upgraded hydralisk can win every campaign mission. Even, the one of last mission’s enemy has lots of spider mine and Arclite Siege Tank(Tlqkf) so the hydralisk can’t fight efficiently. I made many guardians, mutalisks, overloads and waged a war of attrition. After number of annoying things are decreased, I just pressed S H, S H, S H and swept the whole map. (I felt stress relieved while the destruction.)
2. I.. have no talent on starcraft gaming.
The last mission is cleared thanks to never-ending quantity of hydralisk, so I can finish before I get tired. But average APM is only 52. The mission which control few unit makes me more rapidly control, and the maximum APM slightly over 100. In this game (same as many other game), player who can’t move rapidly has nothing to do.
3. Most of all, En Taro Tassadar!
The campaign scenario is very attractive, whenever!
Even I played long time ago, I played starcraft campaign again. The most important reason is ‘the speaks and scripts are fully translated in remastered version’. This game is real-time battle simulation and the campaign story line is just a background of each units, but the story of starcraft 1 and 2(before epilogue) is quite attractive. The Blizzard company at heyday was really great. And the Korean dubbing of main script is performed by voice actor of starcraft 2. (I don’t know other country’s situation, but the Korean voice actors of starcraft 2 are dare to call as dream team. Many famous voice actor participated and performed nice voice acting.) Not only the hero units, but ordinary units also speak Korean. I felt fantastic when I encountered Korean dubbed version of starcraft.
So I tried to see all of the story any time,
I saved the end of every mission including bonus mission.
Althought it is not important, the 5th Terran mission has branch – I call them as 5A, 5B – by how I cleared 4th mission. I saved 4th mission can clear both type, I saved both of 5A and 5B.
In details,
Ground Zero was open when I destroyed all physic lab.(so disable battlecruiser) in 4th mission.
I got many nuclear missiles when I started, I clear with lots of battlecruisers.
Birds of War was open when I destroyed all nuclear silo (so diable nuclear attack) in 4th mission.
I attacked by battlecruiser when I started, I tried to clear with Goliath + Siege Tank + ghost against enemy’s battlecruiser. (I can use battlecruiser either, but I didn’t use.)
Hmm..
I finally won the mission, but it takes about 3 hours (not including the load and unsaved play. I tried several times to win.) That mission was hardest in this trial.
The reason I tried to clear the starcraft, its original game released in 20th century, was
I had mind to play starcraft again while watching such video..
(The overwhelming power of hydralisk is not my idea, the commentator of above league said. She is Protoss player)
I just played starcraft campaign after the above video. I didn’t use same way to clear mission. I was interested in clear missions after watching videos. I played my own way. I have no talent so I spent time everyday and I clear all mission before she upload the last mission content.
The starcraft game is very great. It released in 1998, it is not just ‘old game’, dare to call as ‘traditional game’. But many contents are made recently in Korea, and some peole just like me, watch and have interesting. The quality of contents are improved continously.
Korea have many ex- starcraft gamers so they can show their plays. But many female infuencer are playing starcraft to make contents. Many influencer didn’t play before. they practiced to play and someone get great skill. And many people watch it and spend money to support, sometimes the league contest is held in 2020s.
Now the starcraft is a kind of watching leisure sports, it is different from other games. I think the starcraft contents are improved more and survive at least few years later.
I recall the script of starcraft 2.
Abathur : Make it great.
Kerrigan: But not perfect?
Abathur : Never perfect. Perfection goal that changes. Never stops moving. Can chase, cannot catch.
