So I hop onto youtube not only to find short lore videos, but this amazing recollection of everything in the game. Thank you so much for making this!

Good times man. Good times.
So many years later and with Legacy of the Void behind me it is certanly chilling to listen to the Overminds last speech, hearing him talking about the Hybrid and the oncoming darkness. As well as it sort off surprised me, that Artanis is the executor we ones played.

The same here. Also when he says after Kerrigan hatches: What I wrought this day will be the undoing of my enemies. In the end, after the SC2 Zerg storyline I really was sympathetic with the Overmind and it's struggle to free the Zerg from the Dark One's influence.
Man, something I realized about starcraft that made the already cool story feel great is that the 'player character' was a real entity that commanded the forces. Magistrate, Captain, Executor, and Cerebrate. You feel involved in the story and briefings. I haven't played it for a long time, but Warcraft 3 felt entirely focused on the hero units and no acknowledgment was given to the player.

17 years, 1 new title, and a total of 3 expansion packs worth of stories later, and Tassadar sacrificing himself to destroy the Overmind is STILL the greatest moment in the history of the franchise. Its never been topped, and now that Legacy of the Void ended the saga, it looks like it probably never will be.

What other video game ever, regardless of platform, is still on sale 17 years after its original release? More to the point, what other game is still being played online after that length of time? While Starcraft II is still a great game, the original was an inimitable masterpiece, surely the greatest game ever invented.

+Snakie Ha, never mind Tassadar's sacrifice, they couldn't even top Arcturas Mengsks' coronation speech, Gerard DuGalle's welcoming speech to the UED, pretty much every Overmind speech, Fenix talking tactics, the threats and counter threats between Edmund Duke and Tassadar (which is missing in this video) and Kerrigan and Zeratul, when they all first meet; and my personal favourite dialogue between Aldaris and Zeratul when they ambush each other during Tassadar's rescue. In short, StarCraft 2 was tragically shit.

Ah, the memories lol.

sooo true! I remember I was a kid when I saw that and I cried. This is the reason I love science fiction now!
didn't plan to, ... but fuck if I didn't watch all of this. Thanks for the compilation.
As a fan of Starcraft since it came out i have to say the story and characters were much better done in the original game than in SC2. Even some of these old cinematics are better than the new thing. They were very creepy and reminicent of dire sci-fi movies while the new cinematics are just pew-pew action flicks with no substance. I love how you blended the cutscene of Kerrigan with the cinematic of her getting captured. Well done sir! Thank you for making this movie based on the story of SC. Many people didn;t even know what a good story the game had.

It was entertaining enough, but I wouldn't say the story was phenomenal. A lot of it comes off as a sci-fi version of their Warcraft storylines. Heck, the whole dark and light theme of the Protoss is literally just Starcraft's version of Warcraft's Eredar. Which obviously (probably) came second, but still, it shows how lacking Blizzard's writing staff has been for some time. At one point I expected Kerrigan to betray the Overmind and start her own rebel faction, which would make her zombie-alien Sylvanas. They swerved around that, but barely. The parallels are still there. And the gameplay doesn't feel like it's aged very well. Which is why I'm watching this rather than playing it despite it being free now. The second game feels alright, but even Halo Wars felt like it did more interesting things and Warcraft 3 is more entertaining to play. But maybe part of that is my preference for fantasy or sci-fi. And I don't care much for gritty stories, in sci-fi OR fantasy. Fallout and Dragon Age will always be well below my preference of other, lighter titles.
MY LIFE FOR AIUR!! Can't wait for this to be a movie. Warcraft done, how about this?

The Terran theme is my favorite it’s just pure SC when I hear it
Can we appreciate Mengsk's voice actor? He starts so calm, friendly, /humane/. When he needs something, he luls you with his demeanor and straight facts, just "we all obviously want to do this" Whenever someone would oppose, he instantly shuts them, but also explains why "it must be done". Once the jig is up, he knows there's 1% chance you'd keep working with him, but he tries with his grand entrance. When Jim shuts him, he sounds angry. Listen. He's not angry. He now knows there is no chance for continued alliance, so he switches on a dime and makes himself a threat: "I am busy becoming Emperor, so you two worms better make sure that once I'm done, I don't even remember you ever existed.
4:21 firebat looks so cool and sounds so cool. The little pictures of units in SC2 are so silly in comparison.
i'm one of those old guys who were fans from way back and watching this now before i play legacy of the void. i just realized i missed the element of being part of the cadre being addressed as magistrate, cerebrate and executor. i felt a lot more involved in the story. i ll just use my imagination for the last installment of star craft 2 i guess. would have been cooler to be a part of the hyperion crew, one of the brood queens or maybe an independent cerebrate who survived and gained kerrigan s trust or the executor or praetor who traveled with zeratul and then with artanis. now i realize what they mean when they say old games are more inclined to fire your imagination up.

Ah! I love this, I know the story by heart, but I still gets to me the words of Tassadar, Fenix and Raynor...
Thanks for this! It's super helpful to get into Starcraft's lore when one does not have the time to go through the first game (been making my way through the second and am loving it!).
I played the hell out of StarCraft, at the age 13-14, i actually still remember cheats codes for a number of different things... "Show me the money" increased your crystal / gas resources; "Power Overwhelming" gave you invincibility, taken from something one of the Protoss forces says in game when clicked upon & select to move about...my favorite one as far as phrases is "Black Sheep Wall", which got rid of the fog of war. However; I played it without cheating the first time through, otherwise whats the point? This game brings back quite a bit of nostalgia & memories.
Thank you for bringing back great memories. It took some effort on your part, and it's been 7 years since this video came out and 26 years when I first opened that CD game! Anyone else watching in 2023?
The music and images from this game always take me back to 3am in my darkened bedroom many years ago, playing StarCraft on my first PC and not caring about anything else in the world.
Ur a Legend Jakatak. This is exactly what I wanted to get into the Starcraft story. I started playing Mass Recall but it's way better seeing the original portraits, and hearing the original voices... and seeing the original artwork. Ur a trooper.

Hey, a small cut scene from Starcraft 2? Pure magic!
Somehow the story for sc1 is still better than the story from sc 2
Really like that line Mengsk gave: "I'm not asking you to like it, I'm asking you to do it."
i came here to catch up to Starcraft II Lore, when i saw the cutscene at the 30 min mark i was sure they were moving into starcraft II and was affraid of getting spoilers for the game, man blizzard makes awsome cutscenes =)
This was my first game on my first own computer in my first year at uni in the UK. Holy cows man ...memories.... awesome. Especially when you would play it back then for the first time in your room with lights off and couple of spliffs. Lol. Aahhh good ol times. And the graphics. Back then they were awesome for the times. I wish though that hillbilly team from the beginning with would continue throughout the game with some really nice clips. They were funny as hell..especially when Jim takes a toke ...yeeeahhh... cheeky devil.
Destroying the Overmind was hasty. I always killed off all the other zerg first, and only then I attacked It with 12 battlecruisers and another 12 carriers.
tassadar 😢😢😢😢😢 i loved him, he did the most amazing sacrifice

Star Craft is a masterpiece all over the world 🌎 hope more of this next gen find this whole lore and the games . Just pure fun and excitement
I'm glad someone put this much effort into this.
Love the biblical way in which The Overmind speaks
i remeber how cool this game was when i was growing up. i still get nostalgia watching this.
"And far away, on the distant planet Char, Kerrigan, the self-styled Queen of Blades, knew that her time of ascension was at hand." That one still gives me goosebumps. So cool.
Very well done. Thank you! Sometimes you want to relive the nostalgia of the story without playing the game and you've done exactly that for us. Excellent work!
Loved the cross fade from the old / new SC content!
This is such an underutilized universe, i wish they made more stories in it
This was pure effort on your part, thank you so much.
Man this is a 7 year old video but I'm watching it like a classic movie. Glad I found ya channel during my recent game lore binge I've been on
Brooooooo sc1 has the best cutscenes in any game i have ever seen, excluding rdr2 And im genz, so its not even nostalgia bias The art style The voice acting Sound effects Use of colours and shadows Are all perfect, even with the limitations of the time .There is a reason rts games exploded in prominence after the release of the starcraft franchise Back when blizzard actually gave a shit about games without loot boxes or battle passes
Omg listening to that intro threw me back to when I was a kid. It was my 1st online game I played with the neighbors and if that didn't work we saved up and got ourselves a long ethernet cable and could play on sunny days lol. Good memories
37:25 marked my life forever, still give me goosebumps... those dialogs made you fell part of the story...
Love the touch of adding the cutscenes - well done!
reading the booklet that came with the discs and then playing the game was truly a great experience! the original storyline with all its politics and character development can't be beat. those CLASSIC cinematics win.. just the right amount of darkness/humour :)
been a Starcraft fan for as long as i can remember. will always love the games, loving the graphics on the new game and expansion packs.
i love it, thank you so much had a 70 hour work week, could barely stand on my feet anymore and then new year's party. this is a great watch from bed. loved the cut to the sc2 cinematic, too. great great job. happy new year, may all your prayers come true, friend!
Awesome work. Really awesome work. Played sc1 long time ago and this is a perfect refresh before legacy of the void. really looking forward to the next episode. Thanks a lot!!!

black sheep wall show me the money power overwhelming But grea video! Love this game.
This is fantastic, thanks a lot man!
Thanks a lot for this Jak!
When this game first came out i thought the cutscenes/storyline were the most amazing advanced thing ever in videogames. I was 18-19yrs old
"I know of you well, O Queen of the Zerg." Gets me every time.
I love how in the cut scene where Kerrigan is inside the chrysalis you can see a Zerg standing over her. I think that that’s Abathur because in SC2 him and Kerrigan have a conversation saying that he was the one that turned her into the queen of blades. She talks about breaking her bones, and twisting her DNA!!!! I know they didn’t have that planned but it’s cool to see they used that little tiny 4-5 second clip at 41:50 to do some pretty cool stuff in SC2
I have to say: A very good conclusion of the Story you made "JaKaTaKtv." Im enjoying much, thanks.
This is exactly what i want to see from a lore video like this, no OP talking nonsense, just pure footage from the game. saddens me that from the 409k views, only 3k decided to like it. great stuff, really good job.
