Ive played almost 100 games of the beta now (vs real ppl) I have to say if this game stays the way it is, i dont think it will be as long lasting as the original SC1.

Obviously there are still balance issues, but with that said, the game is much faster. I actually enjoy the faster pace.

The other major issue that I dont like, and the reason why i think it wont be as great as the original is the lack of depth in micro and macro. The game itself reminds me more of Warcraft 3 (where units of a certain type do x amount more dmg or less dmg vs other types of units, they've used a similar system in sc2). There are so many hard counters that the mediocre players can beat very good players with very little skill at all. It has devolved itself from a game of chess to rock/paper/scissors. I hope they do something to fix this, and i do think that a lot more can be added into the game, but there will be 2 more exp pacs coming out of this so meh.
