Starcraft 2 was over 6 million sales before its final expansion even came out.
That seems like the obvious player base for a Starcraft 3, and it seems more than large enough for a major release.

GTA 6 preorders beat that in like a week and the game isn't even out and no gameplay footage was even show. >That seems like the obvious player base for a Starcraft 3 A lot of that player based has aged out of the game or will stick to playing SC2 instead of spending 80-100$ on buying the same game over again. RTS have reached diminishing returns. There's not much more you can add to SC2 to improve it and convince people to spend on buying a new game. SC2 is feature complete.

So anything that isn't as successful as GTA 6 is a failure that shouldn't ever exist again? In fact any genre that isn't as successful as GTA 6 should just be wholesale cancelled? A game is successful if it makes a profit. Other games making more profit doesn't suddenly make them failures. This isn't a zero-sum game. > A lot of that player based has aged out of the game What does this even mean? Gamers don't "age out". We're long past the era of pretending Nintendo is a children's toy...
