All Starcraft 2 Cinematics

[flabortast]

Doesn't anyone else love all the people claiming it is the worst ending ever without even knowing the events that lead up to it?

[protoswarrior]

lol, I expressly am not watching the last few spoilers to play and build up the events in-game

See you after July 27th !

[LordofAscension]

in the montages there are several scenes that arent included in the list

1. marines lining up with their guns as a nuke goes off in the distance
2. brief action sequence between zeratul and kerrigan
3. a banshee flying through terran city performing evasive maneuvers
4. a hydralisk being shot right in the chest (not the head shot from raynor)
5. mutalisks flying through the valley delivering attacks in an overcast environment
6. a hydralisk dying in fire

i'll have to scrub frame by frame from the ghost of the past to double check if there're something missing, but it's very likely that those scenes have been scrapped or re-edited

just out of curiosity, SC2 CE comes with a cinematic dvd? if these videos are ripped from the cinematic dvd, then there may be more on the game disk, too bad we wont be able to see them until release, which gives me hope about kerrigan's fate at the end of WOL

There's a decent chance that those were just meant for that montage: they are prerendered and I don't believe that there are more than the 4 prerendereds in this game.

As for all the spoilers - I've been filled in on all the details and I'm pretty disappointed. A lot of the voice acting is pretty so-so, the Nova cameo is far less than I was hoping for, and they took the Terran waaaay to far into campy dialogue/redneck territory. Plus, much of what happens seemed incredibly predictable. I guess we'll see how the whole thing plays through - I'm hoping the experience itself will be awesome.

I can't say I was disappointed. Also considering all the best parts of SC and BW were interactions happening in the gameplay itself.

campy dialogue/redneck territory.

Oh god, the news of "so so" voice acting is already giving me a heart attack. I just hate the idea of more redneck talk now.

StarCraft and BW were FILLED with rednecks. Every Terran in the SC1 cinematics had terrible redneck looking teeth.

Judging from what we hear in these cinematics, the voice work is phenomenal.

I just made a list and watch them again in order - we're talking 50 minutes of watching.

The story is a bit predictable, but the fun will be playing the missions.

The cinematics were, but not the game units or the way they talked in the game. There was what, 1 redneck? The vulture?

I know there were rednecks in SC1, I just hate the idea of MORE rednecks, as previously stated.

So far none of the units I've encountered in the Terran army sound like rednecks, so I hope the campaign isn't suddenly filled with them.

Perhaps I should rephrase my complaint. I don't like the voice acting for anyone but Raynor, Tychus, and Mengsk. I am super disappointed in Tricia Helfer - both infested and uninfested, Horner is all right, Valerian is awful, the General isn't bad but his lines are campy. I don't know - it just seems kind of bleh.

But I think Mengsk is phenomenal - spot on!
Raynor is nostalgic but sooooo cheesy.
Tychus - just gotta love the voice.

I actually liked Matt's voice acting / facial expressions.

Edit: but yea, I LOL'd at Valerian's character.
