Starcraft 2 trilogy not about money

Posted on Thursday, 13 November 2008 by Zembla, source: 1Up

When we reported back in October about how the upcoming Starcraft 2 would be a trilogy, a lot of gamers reacted outraged. In these times of marketing and squeezing the last buck, people feared also Blizzard had fallen on the greed-side of the sinner's coin.

Blizzard however insists this is not the case. At least, that much became clear when 1Up spoke with Blizzard's COO, Paul Sams, right before the Wrath of the Lich King launch at midnight. In his words:
The fact of the matter is, it's absolutely, positively untrue about us trying to stretch it out and milk it. People think that it was a monetary driven decision. I can absolutely, positively tell you, with 100 per cent certainty, that that was not part of the conversation. I guarantee it. I give my word. There was never, ever a conversation where we said, 'let's do this because we're going to make more money'. I guarantee it. As a matter of fact the sole reason we did it was because we thought it was going to be a better experience. Anybody that says otherwise is not correct. It is absolutely not what we did it for.
Maybe then Blizzard does just aim to make the best game it possibly can? I for one am getting more and more curious by the day, let's just hope the high expectations they're setting for themselves will be met.

I'll believe money has nothing to do with it when all three titles are reasonably priced. If I have to pay $150.00 dollars to play the game I could care less what they say is motivating them...

I promise you, I give you my word. The fact that games will cost 200$ each are work of God, higher force pulling strings from above. It was never our intention to rip you off BUT WE SURE LIKE IT WHILE WE ARE DOING IT!

Yeah right.

Like I've said before, gamers are going to buy a copy to play online, and pirate the other two if they care for the campaign.
