Starcraft Goes RPG with Final Fantasy 0.2
I really don’t think most of us have any idea how deep the Starcraft map editor can really go in this new version, but already we’re seeing a host of really creative games from users that go far beyond typical RTS fare.
The latest one worth taking a look at is called Final Fantasy 0.2, and it turns Starcraft into a FF-like RPG with turn based combat. According to the creator, the full game will have its own characters and storyline, and be about two hours long.
I’m waiting for the first mod to turn Starcraft into essentially Diablo. Now THAT I would get excited about.

A DotA-like mod for Starcraft 2 would also be full of awesome and win.
A Diablo mod would also be pretty groovy…
Diablo 3 is already being made and will be more awesome than what people can make in SC2….
Dota will be made into it’s own game by Valve in coperation with Ice Frog the current owner/updater of the DOTA map.
(Also a lot of DOTA-eske maps already excist for SC2)
Meh. I just think it would be pretty kewl to see Starcraft units in either a DotA or Diablo setting.
Actually, League of Legends and Heroes of Newerth have taken the DotA formula and tweaked it a bit. I’m not sure how the Steam version will turn out, but I’m interested.
I highly recommend League of Legends. Addictive and free.
I really dont wanna seem like im plugging, but you should check out the eternal shadows orpg custom game, its about the closest thing to diablo as of yet.
