Dark shrine seems to be a very boring building

[Nicol Bolas]

it’s been said DTs are pretty useless in SC2

A lot of things have "been said" about units in SC2. And SC1 for that matter. A lot of wrong things. Hell, just look at imba.Adolf; on Day 1 he was not impressed with the Hellion, and on Day 2 he was just fine with it.

Fair point, Nicol.

Because those are natural expansions to the tech tree. This is a leaf on the end of the tech tree that doesn’t offer much in terms of reward (yeah yeah dark templar, it’s been said DTs are pretty useless in SC2)

I'm sure they're no less useful than they were in the original StarCraft.

All it does it unlock Dark Templar. Why don’t they just replace the obelisk with the Dark shrine? The building model for dark shrine is vastly superior and it looks more like an obelisk.

Move Dark templar back to templar archives to make them more useful again.





You can see it’s a vastly superior model. And they both contain a crystal type object.

Yeah... just do it!
I mean, put them back into Templar archives and use the model for the Dark Obelisk, everyone is used to "Templar archives=DT&HT"

So what if they're used to it? It's poor game design to have two such different and powerful units come from the exact same tech.

Nay, Starship Troopers.

Nay, Starship Troopers.

Good to know at least someone knows their history.

I saw all 3 movies, but I'm sad people lost interest around them. The third one looked horrible.

I think he's talking about the novel (ie, 1959), not the movie (1997-8).
