Well, at least it was free, right?

I didn't quite like this game. I found the units weren't unique enough. I'm not talking about the experimentals, but the normal units. I also found that either the AI is too hard(normal) or too soft(easy)

it.

Can barely play the game. It lags way too much even though I meet the recommended requirements. The only fix I found was one that doesnt apply to Win7 (lowering sound acceleration to basic).

The game is unplayable with this lag and I cant find a good fix. Ive tried everything that I can think of: admin mode, running in Win XP mode, MSI afterburner, lowering the graphics, and nothing works.

I picked up SC2 in a bargain bin once, largely because I enjoyed the first one so much. I hated it; the gameplay mechanics are dumbed down enormously and the graphics actually look worse, because the units look like cartoons. I played it for a few hours before shelving it and reinstalling the original (and Forged Alliance)

The original SC, and FA, is simply the best RTS I've ever played. I still play it occasionally on skirmish, with modded AI's that are pretty hard to beat.

Indeed i wish many others games had followed similar logic can you imagine a ww2 or a napoleonic game based on similar logic awesome
