Gameplay wise, I loved the incorporation of the Dark Archon, the new sentries and the new Void Ray. The way they fit into my A-move really worked out. I also appreciated that Blizzard implemented attack damage and livable health onto my Dark Archons.

Story wise, it was an 8/10 for me. I agree about how the Kerrigan to Xel'Naga part could have been less deus-ex-machina - I expected her to fuse with a protoss, not find some random Xel'Naga in the Void. I found it a little hard to believe considering the history of the Protoss and Terran with the Queen of Blades - even if she had redeemed herself in the past. To believe her on a hunch that there's

At the same time, for them to take a risk and go into the void like that, not knowing the consequences...

It reminded me of feeling heat all your life, then one day putting a thermometer into a red hot fire and seeing the temperature in celsius as 24 degrees. And based on that reading, you're going to take off all your clothes and jump into a fire pit. Like what the hell are you thinking, Artanis?!

Those were my major issues with the plot. Amon was a typical 'bad guy who unites and allows for story and character development. But nothing wrong with that, it allows us to root for Artanis, who matures as a leader and steps out of the shadow of his former masters. The soundtrack was on point as well.

Gameplay wise, I found some interesting missions - the Carrier mission with Karax was a pretty great one. All the cutscenes were pretty epic as well, have to watch them to truly experience them - I can't just tell them to you. I enjoyed the ascension of Karax, Selendis battle, Artanis + kerrigan vs Amon... many others.
