?

Do you think the Xel'naga should play an important role in SC2?

    I think they should play a role but not a big one. They were hinted at so much in 1 that not giving them a role in 2 would be very anticlimactic.

    I would just like to see them do something of importance in the plot. They are talked about so much that it would be nice to get a real look at what they are about.

    i want the xelnaga to be a more evolved version of the protoss. the zerg is like the crappy twin sister of the protoss. ;D

    I thought they were a bunch of aliens that traveled around on these massive space ships and most of them were killed by the Zerg... like it said in the SC manual.

    yeah they were supposedly eradicated to extinction. so when they found one in the game i wuz lik z0mg. and dey were nomadic, so i thought dat xelnaga building was all that remained of them.

    Yes, with hybrids coming in, there really should be some Xel'Nage showing up!

    Why would nomads build some massive fuckin temple anyways...
    I always figured that since they were nomads they weren't all in the same place when the Zerg attacked.

    ummm....they like to travel together? like what most nomadic species tries to do
    are there any proof that the xel naga temple isnt THE xel naga race? like the race is made up of these big computer buildings O_O. and i thought those xel naga temples were their spaceships that they travel around the place with....i seriously dunno where i got these ideas from. somehow manifested years ago while i read da starcraft manual 0.0?"

    I think you are confusing them with the Bentusi from Homeworld...
    The Xel'Naga were organic beings.
    Bedouins are nomadic and they aren't all traveling together.
    Gypsies are nomadic and they aren't all traveling together.

    Personally I'd like to see the Xel'Naga to not make an appearance in the story in starcraft 2. They've played an extremely important role in creating the Protoss and Zerg. Without them there'll be no starcraft.

    This is the thing, I really liked the secretive and mysterious nature of the Xel'Naga from starcraft 1. So I'd like them to remain that way. They'll be know as the creators or the 2 races with an aim to make the perfect race. So Blizzard properly made Duran in order to not have to reveal too much of the Xel.

    I thought the zerg killed all of them, but apparently some got away. They must not have been very special physically because as far as I know the zerg didn't use any of their traits in the various breeds.

    It will be interesting how big a role they will play and in what way.

    they could just retcon them back into the story if they zerg had supposedly killed all of them off
