What the fuck does it mean to white-wash the zerg? If you are talking about primal zerg... what's wrong with the concept? FRIEND RAYNOR Tassadar already said this in original SC2 about the Dark Templar. What other eternal enemy do they have? The Zerg? Because Tassadar definitely didn't say that about the zerg. The part about the advanced scientific race was already established in the first game. Zeratul was already underway hunting the prophecy in the secret missions. Kerrigan was being influenced by Amon Raynor was a space marine. Why wouldn't he look buff? And Kerrigan was already well on her way to being "babeified" --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Hmm, I already bought the original Starcraft way back in the day so I can't see any real reason to buy it again with slightly prettier graphics, moreso even when the original has been patched to be more compatible with current computers.

And also Raynor and Kerrigan have had a long time sort of affair going on The story was retconned to invent a much deeper back story about these characters. In SC1, they're introduced through Arcturus (I think in mission 3), and it's clear that this is the first time they're meeting.

Kerrigan's whole arc in brood war was becoming an irredeemable monster. She wasn't controlled by the xel naga. Raynor grew to DESPISE her.
And the Overmind capturing her wasn't some plot to one up his "masters", it was to assimilate a race with latent psychic abilities, which was central to their entire squabble with the protoss. And let's not forget that the Overmind's entire backstory was literally killing off the xel naga and chasing them out of the galaxy. The xel naga were researchers and scientists and didn't anticipate that their creation was aware of them. The entire point of Starcraft was humans caught in the middle of a millennia long struggle between two advanced space faring races and humans being a natural bridge between zerg and the protoss. The xel naga returning to finish what they started is a perfectly fine direction to take the story, especially since it was established in the first game, but retconning other key components to create an entirely different narrative is lazy at best and turned an interesting IP into a generic abysmal mess. And yes, they "white washed" the zerg. The zerg were the villains of the first game. They're a Ridley Scott's Alien inspired race that exists to consume and assimilate. That their entire drive was retconned as Xel Naga controlled is fucking stupid and contradicts their origin outlined in game and in the original manual --- ... Copied to Clipboard!
