How would you rate SC2, 7 months after release?
I know most of you are really frustrated with Blizzard about the crap story, some shady voice acting choices, the custom maps screen and even editor.

So after 7 months, a ton of promises, few patches, is SC2 the amazing game you thought it would be, or is it still a screw-up?

Having a blast, and it's only getting better as my gameplay improves and I meet more regulars. In fact it's become a near daily routine, and the only reason I'm not playing it now is because of Dead Space 2

I still think a dota game is funnier (either with friends or more competitive = no leavers)

Oh well...

[SpikeVorador]

is a good game, but the mexican dub is just so damn annoying and so bad that it downgrade the game directly to mediocre u.u

[sandwich_bird]

It's good but some stuff are preventing it from being amazing in my books:
-Stupid UMS rating system + all the stupid restrictions on map making (no bad language and etc).
-Almost never any change to the ladder map pool.
-Keep getting dropped for no reasons on Ladder maps which means that I don't ladder anymore.
-Stupid story.

[Blazur]

The lack of map diversity on the ladder I'd say is the worst thing going on for it. It's getting pretty stale playing on the same 5-7 maps over and over.

For me it's amazing. It's the game I start and end my day with.

It's a pretty stale game. Most ladder matches play out in only a few ways even in high Diamond/Master's league. I'm currently sitting at rank 4 Diamond, around 2200 points with ~700 bonus pool and I don't really have the motivation to ladder anymore.

Bnet 2.0 is garbage. It's worse in almost every way compared to Bnet 1.0. Even Relic Online, which was a buggy, laggy PoS, is better than this. At least RO let you make games, create channels, and had an uncluttered interface.

The biggest disappointment is how little Blizzard innovated in SC2. It's an engine update to Brood War with a few new units. It's the safest product possible and that's disappointing, although not unexpected. I just wish Relic knew how to balance and support their games, because their games are so much more innovative and fun than Blizzard's. It's just that their support blows donkey balls.

The thing that makes me keep logging back into Bnet are the custom games. Some of them are quite interesting and show tons more originality than anything Blizzard has come up with.

Wow, I had forgotten this game even existed.

"Good" for gameplay and music and "mediocre" to "bad" for pretty much everything else.
