To be completely fair, Starcraft: Ghost was originally teased in 2002. Obviously a different game, but they did sow the seeds for a starcraft IP shooter long before Destiny.
To be totally completely fair that game was canceled and is over 20 years old. Whatever seeds it planted are scarce by now at best.
Doesn't matter, you said original ideas, not completed games.
Lol okay. There is nothing in this current project from 20+ years ago of a game that got canceled. I doubt they even have any preliminary builds around anymore to pull from. This is something being built from the ground up.
Obviously. Your statement was that StarCraft had never had any original ideas in the IP; I was just pointing out that the idea of a StarCraft IP shooter pre-dates Destiny (and FarCry). I'm not sure why we're still discussing this.
Well I assumed it had some relevance, but it really doesnt. It doesnt really prove that StarCraft has original ideas just because they had a canceled game that was before Destiny. Looking at the time period that one was probably because Halo did so well. So it was probably going to be like Halo.
