Now, to the actual request!

The game I am requesting is Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty, which is the base game, for those of you who are unfamiliar with the Starcraft franchise. I used to play a lot of the original Starcraft years ago, but I stopped playing it around the time that Starcraft 2 came out. I quit mainly because I couldn't afford the game when it was first released, and everybody else that was on Starcraft multiplayer seemed to have moved onto Starcraft II, with very few exceptions. Although I haven't kept contact with the friends I met while playing Starcraft, the memories stuck with me.

Fortunately, I got the chance to try out Starcraft II a while ago, thanks to (u/Jinxtah gifting me a trial key, thanks again :D!). I finished all four of the missions that were available to me, and I even tried out a game of Starcraft Risk at the Arcade. Unfortunately, the rest of the campaign missions are locked, and after I rescued the survivors at the colony of Agria, I was basically told by Blizzard to either pay up or gtfo :(

I have a pretty tight budget, as I plan on buying the El Dorado expansion( for Europa Universalis IV) when it comes out, along with the Heart of the Swarm expansion for Starcraft II. Unfortunately, without outside assistance, I can't afford all of these games: El Dorado, Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty, and the Heart of the Swarm expansion. Which would be awful, as I can't imagine ending Wing of Liberty's campaign, and not being able to play Heart of the Swarm.

I really wish Tremor Games offered Blizzard games as a reward, as the Amazon Gift Card rates are hideous, a $5 costs ~4900 coins, and a "good" survey gives around 500 to 1000 coins. Not to mention I'm rarely eligible for a survey, so, I guess I'll have to stick with making a giveaway every now and then for others, as I have everything I want from that site.

Heart of the Swarm is an expansion that focuses on Kerrigan & the Zerg. Kerrigan is probably my favourite character from the Starcraft franchise, and the Zerg has always been my favourite race too. Not to mention the storyline for the expansion sounds so fucking awesome, Kerrigan traveling across the universe, gathering the remains of the swarm, and wrestling control from the more rebellious Zerg leaders.

I really want to the experience the campaign first-hand, instead of reading about it on the Starcraft wikia. The characters are all very intriguing, and I especially want to continue Kerrigan AND Raynor's journey. can't promise that I'll be at the top of the Starcraft II ranked ladder within a week of getting the game, but I will promise to you that I will thoroughly enjoy the game, accompanied by a sense of nostalgia :)
