Hi, guys,
I don't have the kind of money to buy Starcraft 2, but I wanted to know about the continuing story. So I read the Wikipedia article of the game to find the storyline. I have some questions:
1. What happens to Arcturus Mengsk after the message revealing his actions on Tarsonis was sent? Does he still rule the dominion? Is he overthrown? Do people start respecting Jim Raynor afterwards?
2. When Zeratul says that Kerrigan is the key to saving the universe, does the game reveal whether he means Kerrigan in her "Queen of Blades" form or her human form?
3. I can only assume that Kerrigan is happy to be restored, but is that really the case?

sadly I havent finished the campaing yet D:, also I might need to replay several time through it to understand the entire story since when chars talk it's talking not text, so I lose some parts due to my limited english listening ability x.x

Well, I got the third question answered from seeing the video for the ending on youtube. I only wish they had a video for the end credits, because the music for the credits sounded like it would knock my socks off
EDIT: Watched the video for the end credits. The music was okayish...I expected more

I kinda like the in-game music, but usually it is not really my music style. On the old Starcraft, I sometimes had music turned off and listened to other stuff like Dragonforce and only had sound effects on.
IMHO the game is pretty great. They did a very good job on it compared to what I expected. I feared they would do like Warcraft III and make structures take 4 minutes each to build and have a unit cap of 90-100. Finally, it seemed like the speed was a bit faster for some stuff and gameplay is much better, like how you can set workers to rally point on a mineral patch (or an new expansion mineral patch) so no more worries about idle workers that you just built while attacking. You can also select more than 12 units at once now (I believe the max is 250 or something) and you can hotkey multiple buildings on one number, making it easier for unit mass production.
Also my bro tried the game on his dual core computer and while he had to reduce all settings to minimum and resolution to 1024x768, it still looks pretty great and runs smoothly.
The only complaint I have is that some campaing units such as the medic cannot be used in multiplayer/custom games. There are also a few balance issues, but they release new patches regulary, meaning it will most likely get better and better, like the first Starcraft did.

1. I believe he still rule Dominion
2. Tessadar tells him about it...Queen of Blade form
3. No...It basically means Kerrigan got her free will(If you see the ending scene, Kerrigan's hair is still zerg-ish) to save Zerg from hybrids. She's still the Queen of Blades
