Xel'Naga

Well maybe I’m totally off my can here but I took the purity of essence to mean the passionate single/ simple mindedness of the Zerg. Where as the Terran are “pure†because they aren’t connected and contaminating one another through some psionic link. They have pure “freewill†freedom of choice, individuality. Though we take freewill for granted it might be quite an accomplishment for a group of beings that have always been psionicly linked with some other creatures to survive. Sharing a linked existence could also have its drawbacks. Too uniform a society would be stable, but weak. Homogony builds resilience.

 

To have purity of mind would be like able to control your thoughts and have pure strength of reason and comprehension . . . terrans in starcraft and even us humans in real life are far from that . . . we cannot control our thoughts, but we have the power to reason with our thoughts if we so choose, but on a bare minimum level.

If anything in starcraft that has purity of mind, it is the xel'naga.

 

I really hope the Xel' Naga don't make as strong an appearance like the Naga in WC3 and Seraphim in SC do. For god sakes Blizzard, retain SOME alure. Don't make the same mistake you did with WoW and permanently f**** up the universe.
