Oh the plot is going to get so much dumber, I regret watching those cutscenes.
SC1 didn't have that much of a plot but it was good for the time, now you're all going to suffer through WOW in space but less original somehow.

Most pro wrestling matches seem like goddamn Shakespeare in comparison.

I'm dead serious, they should have fired the writing team and hired Vince McMahon.

presumably it means that Tychus is always tracked and maybe can be terminated at the press of a button, smells like a shithouse.

Could have also added an alternate fire mode specifically to damage heavy armour: wide arc for biological scrubs and a focused torch for tanks and buildings.

Considering you're playing a rebellious army in this campaign there was a real missed opportunity to have many more mercs and allied forces or auxiliaries, could have been really cool to have more unique squads join in on a per mission basis.

It is not a subtle plotline.
completely stinks of being written and rewritten until any spark of originality was dulled.

Oh god, this makes so much sense and also shows the dev team had strange priorities/ bad relationship with the writing team.
Quick compromise idea: Raynor starts with making some small mistakes which get noticed in plot but don't effect the gameplay> Jim finally fucks up majorly in plot leading to a hasty mission to salvage the war effort> Jim confronts his demons> redemption arc.

All that would take is a single mop-up mission, maybe a couple more in a redemptive feel.

As I said earlier it was entirely possible to have Raynor poo poo the bed somewhere in the mid campaign and have the successive plot be full of "he's making an effort and we've no choice but to stick with but could we ever trust him again?"

A'int nothing wrong with that: most of us can only dream of being even that important.
