Review By Daniel Shannon
It has been almost two years since Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty was released. Since then, fans of the Zerg have been waiting for the Heart of the Swarm expansion to tell that race's side of the story. The time has finally come for the Zerg to get their moment to shine--and shine they do. It's unfortunate that poor writing intrudes on the campaign, because the missions themselves are highly entertaining and varied, and online play provides plenty of cutthroat thrills.
While Starcraft II is a great real-time strategy game, it hasn't evolved much in light of other strategy games, though that familiarity is part of its appeal. Many fine touches--the "select whole army" button, the clever dialogue when you click on a unit too many times, the hotkeys for unique power--are appreciated, but not new. HOTS also lacks the contextual dialogue you hear in The Battle for Middle-earth or Relic's more recent games.
And so Heart of the Swarm is a safe expansion, but it's also an excellent one. If you've spent the last two years hankering to run amok with the delightfully diverse Zerg swarm, you're in luck, because you'll have no trouble scratching that itch with the gameplay you know and love. The lackluster story is disappointing, but taking control of the Zerg--those nutty world-devouring insectoid-dinosaur hybrids--makes Heart of the Swarm well worth the investment.
Ok, now, I will take the honor and summarize it for you all.
Starcraft-2 Wings of Liberty fans waited two years for its sequel. When heart of the swarm came out on March 12 2013, they were not only happy but excited, given the thrilling and fantabulous trailers of HoTS. For any previous WoL player, (no spoilers), zerglings controlled by Kerrigan and Raynor being in love with Kerrigan, no matter what comes(even the queen of blades), still seems unexplained. But whatsoever, most of us play for the gameplay. In that part, SC2-HoTS is the best one in that series.
Dialogue Writing= Not so good
Gameplay=Perfect
Story/Plot=Average
Graphics/Animations/Artistic Effects=Great
Don't miss it out. Play this one.
Released on 12 March 2013 | PC, Mac
