Just finished the epilogue after years having only completed wings of liberty
And.......
It was legitimately horrible. Honestly, I could've never played past wings and just relished the positive memory. I know I'm beating a dead horse here and the consensus is that the SC2 story is really bad, but wow. I wasnt prepared.
Heart of the swarm was silly but fun. I could tell the story got wacky after Kerrigan was rescued by raynor, but I overlooked it and had fun playing the missions.
Legacy of the Voids missions were pretty boring, but the increase in difficulty on brutal kept me grinding.
But the epilogue. Holy God. It was so much worse than the rest. Not only was the story so insanely boring and predictable, but the mission design was horrid. Ive seen people say they enjoyed the Narud mission, but all 3 missions are just fighting shadow units from the 3 main races. THATS. FUCKING. IT. The conclusion to all these campaigns was just fighting hoards of regular units for a few hours? Then smashing some flying rocks? Im baffled.
Anyways, I know I'm like 11 years late. I was going to go back and try to 100% the campaigns and complete the rest of the mastery achievements, but at this point I lack the motivation. That god awful epilogue legitimately killed off my love of the game. Guess I'll try to return to ladder after like 8 years. Or are the nova missions worth it?
