False Release Dates Piss Me Off

If those cards sell more than expected, then Christopher Hitchens should write a book about it.

These stuff are a plague of humanity! It's wicked, immoral, and just shows how --

The SC2 FAQ consistently calls them expansions, and they've said they'll be dependent as opposed to standalone. You're right that they haven't specified any kind of price, but if they're expansions I expect it to cost less than the original.

Wa wa wa whhhaaatt!

I have to pay 10 extra dollars for a expansion to a game I love so much im a regular poster on a fan site! No thank you. Ill spend my hard earned money on something else instead. Like a sandwich.

I was specifically pointing out the reason why people in general are conflicted about the 3-game release of SC2. Fans know the real deal, while general public does not understand and in turn complain about it.

But I figure context isn't in your vocabulary, eh?

Even though they are the same company.

I knew there must have been some kind of legit reason.

ha, if you dont think they had a little asterisk there somewhere saying dates are not final and conditionally subject to change at the discretion of publisher or something to that effect, you'd be kidding yourself.

The problem is that the single player is also divided into 3 parts. If you want to play the Protoss campaign, you will need to pay for the game and the two expansions. Not to mention, that the real, big ending is in the Protoss compaign, so, you need to pay for both expansions to get the full story.

Of course, the content can be so good as to justify the price, but it's more like a game divided into 3 pieces, than a game and two expansions.

I can't remember where but I believe in an interview blizzard indicated that the trilogy would be priced as a game and two expansions.
