StarCraft has received another makeover, this time taking the visuals in a completely different direction. Every map, building, character, etc. has been remade with CarBot Animations art. As a fan since the original, I've picked this up but have yet to play it. What are your thoughts on this?

Clearly the definitive version of the game.
Just gotta keep our fingers crossed for Diablo to get the same treatment!

USD9.99 for a gfx mod basically? no thanks.

Well, this is Blizzard at their generous phase. I would have expected them to sell it as an individual game for 30-40 bucks.

Well, the original game is being given out for free, isn't it?
And the remaster doesn't make any improvements to QoL or gameplay either, correct?
So technically the game is free [and apparently the original game does have full cross-play with the remaster, removing any meaningful technical distinction between the two] and everything past that is just "gfx mods".

So I guess it's all about how you view generosity but, I for one certainly prefer it when optional cosmetic elements bear the brunt of a game's financial investment options. ^.^

Effectively layering cosmetics like this is definitely something specifically for the diehards, however, I'd think..

Love the look. But I don't play Starcraft anymore (SC2 splitting the campaign the way it did, along with no LAN play at launch, killed my enthusiasm for the franchise).

Same here. Blizzard destroyed my interest in two of my favourite game franchises, with its online focused nonsense: Starcraft and Diablo

Now it looks like your average flash game that you can play for free on Kongregate :D

When I first heard about it, i thought it was awesome.
But, I also didn't think they'd charge for it.

Not that I don't appreciate the work that went into it, but we used to get overhaul mods like this from fan communities for free.

Doubt I'll be picking it up. :-/
