Question will be if there's going to be a single player component. Back then StarCraft had a beloved universe and characters. Post StarCraft 2 - the universe and those beloved characters aren't so beloved anymore. SC2 and expansions may have been worse than Veilguard for their fanbases in terms of universal disappointment over the stories

I'm just glad I got a tiny bit of closure for Raynor and Kerrigan before Blizzard went full enshittification

Was it really so poorly received? I gotta admit I enjoyed SC2 and was happy to finish out the story, but was much less critical of games etc in my younger years, and have not gone back to play it again since. The ending on disable 3 though, boy was I unimpressed.
