Interesting. I knew about the difficulties of the micro in BW but didn't think it would be the defining feature of the game like that. Maybe those elements can still be "fixed" while keeping the balance of the races, with same units and tech trees. At the very least I think it could be worked around in order to let new players enjoy the game as well, and maybe ramp up to using those advanced techniques. I think fighting games like Tekken, Street Fighter are good examples here. Tekken has largely remained the same game, with the same moves, with new features built on top. Every sequel is expected to maintain this transfer of the core "rules" (not necessarily mechanics) such that players can master their Tekken skills over decades. Also, you have SF6 adding a new "assisted" controls for new players. This allows a stepping stone for players to later reach the harder controls which are equivalent to the 300 APM micros in SC. RTS has to make a comeback. It's like a better version of chess, if only game companies would innovate the genre in that direction.
