So, I assume I'm not the only one who watches Starcrafts (the Carbot parody cartoons on youtube)

So... this is a thing.

The epic music really doesn't work. Just makes it sound like they're trying too hard.

The people in the past who convinced themselves to do unspeakable things were no less human than you or I. They made their decisions; the only thing that prevents history from repeating itself is making different ones.

So...they want money to make their own game that's a comical take on an existing franchise.

Yeah, I hope this fails.

It's not a game, it's complete graphical overhaul for SC2. Also, why would you hope it fails? There is nothing malicious here.

And also nothing original. They want to mod? Do it like everyone else and stop asking for money.

Still not getting your hostility, but whatever, it's not for you that's fine.

Did you know that Blizzard worked with Carbot to include some Carbot stuff into the official, stock Starcraft? There are Carbot account icons to unlock when reaching max level, along with Carbot decalc, or whatever they call the small symbols around the worker buildings. The mod that they are working on would require Starcraft II to be used, and would only renew interest in the game. It is in no way a parasitic relation with Blizzard that they are having, it is a symbiotic one. So, I do not understand your hostility here.
I can understanding not being interested in the project, but hoping it fails? Why the hate?

Ain't those just from the original game? Carbot usually just use the original sounds.
Though I did not expect you to enjoy anything so directly linked to Blizzard .

I'm not hostile Soladrin, apologies if that's how I came across (I was probably very tired writing my responses). In retrospect, I don't hope this fails, I'm just sort of peeved about a random mod getting support from the developer when so many others could use the same support (World of Starcraft anyone?).

It's not a rational peeve, I admit, but a peeve nonetheless.
