I agree that the RTS genre is not as hot as it was in the SC days, but Warcraft 3 (WC3) was still huge and is still a top seller today. I think there is still demand for an RTS if it is great--the problem is that other RTS makers didn't put out great games. Lots of RTS players have been waiting for a Starcraft 2, and I think we will see RTS come back with this game's release.
How do you know the forecast is 30% more than the total of SC1? Do we have global numbers (including South Korea and the rest of Asia) for Starcraft?
