The ghost of StarCraft: Ghost endures as a new shooter set in the RTS universe is in the works at Blizzard - Lemmy.zip

Wonder if it has anything to do with space marine II
Hell yeah you know it is.

I’ve been watching the 40k gameplay and it looks just gorgeous aesthetically, but the gameplay loop seemed incredibly repetitive even after just a few minutes, forcing the player into finisher juggling.

If the StarCraft shooter can make the universe come to life similarly and also manage to not be as restrictive in gameplay I’d probably grab that.

It looks like easy co-op fun though. I love Gears of War co-op, just because it’s super easy to get into with a couple of friends.

seemed incredibly repetitive

Something about violently slashing and shooting your way through hoards of bugs doesn’t seem to get old. It’s just very satisfying.

I don’t have a way to measure of how good a game would need to be for me to go back to Blizzard. I want to say it is impossible at this point.
Sell me, like, a game. Just… a game. A good game without loot. Without ranking. Without the crap that makes gaming less fun. Just, a good story with good gameplay.
Fool me once…
Don’t give me hope…
Sadly Blizzard is just rotting corpse of something that was once great now.
Let me know when the ghost of OG blizzard returns.
We need that Cosby Suite back!
To be clear, my version of OG blizzard is from the 90s when they were one of the first companies to provide spawn installs. Cosby suite is way past their peak and into their period of decline.
I can’t wait to not buy it, since Blizzard is a CCP-peddling organization.
Is my $5 down preorder still valid?

StarCraft 2 was the last good game Blizzard made. That was 14 years ago. Everything else has been hot garbage since then.

They lost their touch a loooong time ago.
