Presumably they did a speedrun through the campaign with cheats and recorded all cutscenes.

That'll probably my splurge purchase for the month, though I shouldn't buy it because I've got a ton of homework on my plate right now.

Foolish me, I just realized the game is pretty much released.

God I love Alarak and his evil ways.

Wow, the guy I'm watching really missed the memo about how You're supposed to use Karax to reclaim mechanical units to use against hybrid rather than indiscriminately slaughtering everything.

Dragoons have good pathfinding by the looks of it, what sorcery is this?

How is it that actually installing the expansion took way less time than pre-loading it?!

Julep Since: Jul, 2010
#1088: Nov 10th 2015 at 7:42:15 AM

Because pre-loading pre-installed the files, and installing just unlocked the game.

#1089: Nov 10th 2015 at 7:43:41 AM

But I didn't even finish the pre-loading! I just closed Battle.net and then went to sleep and only installed it this morning!

I assume that earlier B Net updates included LOTV data, so that their servers would not obliterate when the new game would be released due to everyone downloading at the very same time. I suppose that if there is one company in the world that knows how to prepare an humongous update, it's Blizzard. Riot probably has more players but LOL updates usually include much less data than World Of Warcraft's did.

So far I'm seeing a lot of missed potential in this chapter. No mention of Niadra is present, and Zeratul kind of kicked the bucket a lot sooner than expected.

[up] Zeratul's early death aside, after watching Alzu Gaming's walkthrough, I have these to say about Legacy of the Void's story mode:

1. Brood War not being mentioned much again, aside from Stukov finally killing Duran/Narud, complete with saying good night.

2. No United Earth Directorate coming back for Round Two, as Stukov warned Kerrigan.

3. No John Raynor, as was teased back in Blizz Con 2011.

I was really hoping corrupted UED to be a key antagonist force. sad

So I tried Archon mode with my cousin. I do not think it actually requires spoilers, but, you know, i am putting them just in case.

So, the Zerg get Kerrigan, and the Protoss get the Spear of Adun. What do the Terrans get?

Finished the main campaign, epilogue to go.

I hope the final cinematic will be epic, because while the last toss mission is awesome, the ending is...meh. Especially compared to those from WOL & HOTS.

I LOVE ALARAK. The campaign was good, but I felt like it lacked original characters, such as Tychus, Mira Horner, Abathur...to spice things up. Protosses are a bit stuck up compared to the gleefully amoral zerg and Raynor's Ragtag Bunch of Misfits. Thankfully, this dude arrived and made it his life mission to troll Artanis.

No mention of Urun or Mohandar (though at least Mohandar had some handwaving in a story or something).

Man, that final epilogue mission is tough as balls. Only time I had to reduce the difficulty to Casual to beat it.

I'm just glad my prediction came true. Amon defeated, the protoss finally reclaim Aiur without any distractions.

Final cinematic.... Well, it isn't exactly epic per se, but it kinda gives you some WAFF.
