Starcraft 2 Campaign Collection on sale. Worth the price / will it ever drop closer to historic lows?

So I'm part of the !strayans and Blizzard having a Valentine's sale. I've been eyeing Starcraft 2 for a while and just been waiting for about a year.

In Dingo dollars it's $44.95. So that's 25% off full price. But been checking gg-deals and while this is the 3rd best price, the other best prices of $30 and $22 AUD were 2 and 3 years ago.

Do I bite the bullet since it's safe to say it isn't dropping that far again unless new pandemic?

Or since I only want to play single player offline, I just pirate?

Gib recommendations.

Good point. I do try to do it legally where possible if it's available but like...the game is heck old. Even at 15 per campaign, it's a bit much.

I remeber the story being really lame compared to the first. In terms of fun, it was alright. I wouldn't pay that much for it just for single player. Isn't the first campaign free anyway?

I would get Age of Empires 4 instead. It's cheaper even not on sale for the base game. I think I caught it when it was 20 American dolleriedoos.

the story degenerated into lame space opera but not really until mid way through LoTV

I remember Jim Reynor being so much cooler in the first. Don't know if it was because of the writing or change of VA.

the writing

this is jimmy in BW:

>It may not be tomorrow, darlin', it may not even happen :marseyvenn6: with an army at my back. But rest assured: I'm the man who's gonna :marseyvenn6: kill you one day! I'll be seeing you!

james raynor in sc2:

>waaaaaah mah waifu :marseymisatolewd2: is gone i need her back i don't even care about fenix or the millions she killed :marseydeadpooner: anymore (but i will mention it once)

And then I recall she stops being Zerg and then immediately goes Zerg again in Heart of The Swarm and I'm like 'B-WORD WHY DID I JUST PLAY 20 FRICKING TERRAN MISSIONS FOR YOU?'

Simple, he never thought he'd get another psi-assisted nut off in BW and immediately caved when it was back on the menu in SC2.

Is it worth it compared to AO2 Definitive? I have that and play with friends every so often (I'm bad).

Oh yeah, they made every empire unique with their own play style like Age of Mythology. It's pretty good.

If you are bad, you can just pub stomp some CPUs with your friends by turtling/range spam with the Brits. That's what I usually do :marseycrayoneater:

I usually let my better friends fight the war effort against expert CPUs while I play the Portugese as a slave class who contribute gold to the war effort via the Feitoria.

Occassionally I'll create a shit ton of organ guns though as backup if needed.

Isn't feitoria literally worse than just regular trade? Or you could play Spanish for the team bonus.

It is. But I think it works well when you want to devote your person cap to other areas. Mind you I don't usually, but I at least try to have as many farmers as possible to assit with food tribute as well. Also in the end game where all gold is gone and markets aren't exactly as good, feitoria can really help give an edge I think.

Why not just have 20 trade carts generating gold instead of a feitoria?

This is a very good question. One I don't have an answer for other than I said I wasn't good at the game.

LMAO fair enough. I know the mechanics well because I watch T90 videos while doing cardio but can't play for shit.

I never played the Protoss SCII campaign, is the price low enough that I should finally buy it? I should maybe check and make sure I didn't buy it like 10 years ago though and forget about it..

[Edit] Looks like you can't buy the individuals SCII campaigns standalone anymore? Bummer.

sc2 campaigns are fun, definitely 50$ worth of enjoyment, except for the end of the protoss campaign.
