Report: StarCraft HD Remaster in Development

[Hawki]

This had better not be THE major announcement at BlizzCon.

Diablo III is due for a new expansion, and daddy wants his Druid.

Diablo IV is far more likely, or at least a new Diablo game of some kind.

If StarCraft gets an announcement of its own at BlizzCon, I'm hoping for a second mission pack.

I have not cared about StarCraft for years and since I'm not a fan of HD remasterings I can only scowl at this.

If it's free and/or I can play old SC1 maps without altering or editing them, that would be amazing.
Even better so if I can do so through SC2.

Yeah, there's a mod that already does that. Seriously, I don't see what they can add to that. And what I AM afraid of is them Lucasing the original story by changing bits of it to fit better with the narrative of SC2...

StarCraft HD will have "improved graphics resolution and user interface."

Translation: We added widescreen support.

I bet a lot of people are going to expect this game to have entirely new models and textures. Prepare for disappointment.

Another remaster? Guess that's all we'll be getting for a good while then. It's a mystery why my PS4 has been collecting dust while the xbox360 and PS2 have been seeing regular use lately.

This is the first Remaster Blizzard has ever done.

That said, I'm glad for it, because I'd like to see remastered versions of WarCrafts 1-3.

Can totally live with that. The current mod availability for SC1 regarding higher res is abysmal.
