Terran Dominion

How do you Terran-fans feel about playing the bad guys?

 

Blizzard story is never black and white its never sure who is bad or good.
it depends of the point of view
Like in real life

 

I don't think they think of themselves as bad guys.  If you ask me, the UED was oppressive, but didn't care about what happened to the outrigger humans.  Remember when Mar Sara was sterelized?  Did the UED give a crap?  Nope.  So, I don't think of the Terran Dominion as bad guys, as the the Sons of Korhal actually cared and stood up to the Zerg and Protoss.

 

Yeah, "evil" is in brackets.

But they do sound kinda bad :-\

 

to me they seemed bad in the original starcraft anyways

 

Blizzard calls them the evil empire! I don't care what everyone else says, Terran Dominion = Evil

 

Some of us like to play the bad guys^^

 

Like me! KEKEKEKEE

 

Oh no, a horde member in my starcraft forums?! Gasp!

 

Famous line from Jim Raynor:

"Seems like just yesterday that Arcturus was the idealistic rebel crusader. And now he's the LAW and we are the criminal. It kills me to know that we've help him achieve his dreams"

 

Commanding "bad" Terrans is great thing. I have absolutely enought playing good, patriotic and always "attacked by alien badass" humens. Is sooo...boring. Arcturus is a bad guy- thats why i like this hero more than f.e. Stukov- who is just a loyal soldier, breave patriot.

 

I know I'm looking forward to hearing more from that Dawn of War looking admiral guy that was in the gameplay vids.

 

Hey, don't dis on Stukov. He was awesome. Dis on DuGalle or someone, but not Stukov.

 

I was sad when Stukov bit the dust, I liked him :-\

 

I don't know if i'd call the terran dominion the bad guys. Acturus(don't think i spelled right) he's the bad guy he accused the
Confederacy of doing terrible things when all they were trying to do is keep the public oblivious to what was going on. The Dominion I'll say were stupid for fighting with the protoss when an alliance may have been possible but they didn't know what was really going down since Duran played them out. The Point is it's all perspective and the only guys that i know for a fact was truly good was Tassadar, Jim and Stukov.

 

Agreed, I felt more positive while playing Protoss. Terran always had that darker feeling.

 

It's all perspective but the dominion was pure evil no doubt

 

Technically speaking, the Zerg is the most unified race..........well yeah thats obvious...

Look at the terrans, they went on a civil war between Arcturus and the confederacy
then another civil war between the dominion and UED

With the protoss we had Aldaris+conclave vs Tassadar+dark templars.......and this division occured in both original + brood war

Ok kerrigan did manipulated everyone and even fooled raynor and fenix........in terms of the zerg, as long as there is an matured overmind, we can gurantee that there'll be unity

 

If you think about it, in StarCraft you are always playing "the bad guys", or rather "the smart guys that know what they're doing and overthrow the majority." The only place where you spend any amount of time helping "The Man" is in the first Zerg campaign.

Episode I: Rebel against the Confederacy
Episode II: Help the Overmind invade Aiur (only one where you play as part of the majority)
Episode III: Rebel against the Conclave
Episode IV: Do the unthinkable and join the Dark Templar
Episode V: Invade from the Terran system (UED)
Episode VI: Kill the new Overmind.

 

Stukov was loyal, even brave, but not good. In BW intro he was just looking at terran forces being overrun by the Zerg Swarm. Hes fleet also attacked (unprovoked) Protoss forces on Braxis, while they fled from the planet. Only Fenix, Tassadar and Raynor (and Kerrigan- before her infestation) could be describe as a good guys.
