Maybe when you see this title, many people think it is impossible, because the current "StarCraft 2" is still alive and well, and even Blizzard has launched a high-definition version of "StarCraft 1", how to look at it is not like a cool situation, but, I can say, this is the cruel reality, you think, when is the recent big update of StarCraft 2? It's all about 2016.
It is that "Nova's Secret Action", in addition, the next series of updates, we can clearly see that Blizzard is on the basis of the original tinkering, there is no big move before, let alone what kind of game thing, now the game almost does not exist, so, I said StarCraft is dead, really not blind, then, why did it cause such a situation?
This has to say that today's RTS game market, many people think that real-time strategy is a big market, the answer was placed ten years ago, but now, sorry, can only say that real-time strategy can only be regarded as a dessert-level market, and this market is already very small, the living space is still squeezed to the point of misery, there are a lot of TRS-like games, what DOTA, League of Legends, and even tower defense games have a lot.
The market space for real-time strategy games is already small, and now it is still facing the embarrassing dilemma of players being split, because everyone knows that the current game market can replace StarCraft, oh no, to be precise, there are too many games that can replace RTS games, the RTS genre has long come to an end, Blizzard is also aware of this situation, which is why starcraft 3 has not been launched for a long time.
Because it is very simple, the threshold for getting started in real-time strategy games is too high, in order to let more players play this game, Blizzard is also as far as possible to reduce the threshold of the game, which is why the operating threshold of "StarCraft 2" has been greatly reduced, as a result, Blizzard's initial idea is to attract more players, but this wave of operations also directly offends the old players, making Blizzard not a person inside and out.
So, basically there is no more StarCraft thing, the sequel is not counted on, some people may say, Microsoft did not acquire Activision Blizzard? I believe that in the arms of Microsoft, this is also a maybe thing, then I can only say that you think too much, Microsoft has acquired over the years, how many games will be better, basically there is no way to live too well.
Of course, the sequel is impossible, but does not mean that StarCraft can not do derivative products, if Blizzard can make a StarCraft movie, it may be better than Warcraft, because StarCraft is a science fiction theme, plus the plot is also in place, casually pull out a single one, can make a movie, Blizzard if you are willing to work hard to make a derivative network drama.
Blizzard can completely use StarCraft to engage in an interstellar universe, you know, what Jim Reynolds, Kerrigan, Atanis, in short, some of the elements in the American drama, placed in StarCraft is not one of them, Marvel has, Blizzard is very rich, if it is really so engaged, it is estimated that at that time, the StarCraft universe can basically be formed, not to mention the role of StarCraft so much.
