Not to mention that the overall plot is once again identical to Warcraft.
The ancient race that shapes the world, then leaves it behind (Xel'naga/Titans). Only to have it later attacked by a corrupted one of their number (Fallen One/Sargeras). Who uses a slave race whose strength lies in simple, overwhelming numbers (Zerg/Undead), led by a single controlling ruler (Overmind/Nher'zul). The controller finds a human pawn (Kerrigan/Arthas) that he corrupts to help ensure future freedom.
You can draw those comparisons back through the main campaigns of Starcraft and WCIII (with the exception of the Orc campaign, which doesn't really fit in anywhere), and SC: Brood Wars and WCIII: The Frozen Throne. Blizzard needs to learn to write more than one plot.
