Starcraft: Is it over rated?

from GalCiv2 Forums
Starcraft is one of the biggest games these days, especially in Korea. People say its the best game ever made.

Personally, I think its just over rated. And, its a way of life for some people. No game can be that good.   

Listen, Starcraft is a good game, but not amazing. It came out in 1998, people. Besides, the graphics suck for that age. Starcraft 2's graphics look worse.

To summarize, I think people essentially worshipping the game is pathetic. It's just over rated.

I need your comments, people!

Etrius

(P.S. My favorite games are: X3: Reunion, C&C 3, and Half-Life 2.)

----- As for GeneralEtrius, you make a thread asking if StarCraft is over-rated, and then attack when examples of the opinion of it "not" being over-rated are given. Just stating an opinion is not enough - you must provide substance. I suggest next time you call your thread "StarCraft is over-rated" rather than "Starcraft: Is it over-rated?"

I was trying to make an opinion page, but I will follow your advice

I agree with everyone else that Starcraft deserves its high acclaim and praise. I remember eagerly awaiting its release back when it changed from "Warcraft-in-space" to the iteration of style and design that it is today. Although the comments that people have left so far have been relatively polite and well-structured for the most part, if you were to post that same statement in another forum, chances are that you would quickly be bombarded with multiple comments of n00b, troll, bot, etc. It's most likely that if you went to a board that hates on Starcraft, you would find those who agree with you, but on a neutral board like this, you will get honest opinions and assessments of the game. Based upon the number of posts that are FOR Starcraft versus the posts that are AGAINST Starcraft, I think even you can see that Starcraft must have done something right for it to have appealed to this many people and more, even if you don't see or understand those reasons.

Starcraft should come standard in the 'games' section, right next to Solitaire and Minesweeper.:P

Well, it looks like trying to get people to accept my opinion is moot now...

Why do they need to? Isn't your opinion good enough for you? "Let a hundred flowers bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend," as they say. Someone who demands agreement to validate his opinion probably doesn't have much faith in it to begin with.
