You're misreading his post. I made the same mistake first time I read it. Reaper isn't saying that 'the ability to make Protoss-themed terrains' doesn't exist, he's saying not a lot of people are making Protoss-themed terrains.
Something I guess I do disagree with, though - there's plenty of people making Bel'shir and Aiur temples. Shakuras isn't used as much, but it's still around.
ahh i see. well in that case i would somewhat disagree too =P
Definitely Bel'shir is often used, have always loved the trees myself more than plain Agria. However personally I dont like how blizz made the temple wall doodads too yellow-ish (at least for me); looks too un-ancient, they dont match with most of the other doodads like the pillars and columns that have a more ancient brown feel to it.
Shakuras would be rare choice i guess, since the environment looks often dark and dense; but doesn't have that horror feel for horror maps. People tend to go industrial terrain for horror along the lines of a Dead Space feel of somesort.
a protoss terrain is a terrain that features the protoss as a race. It is not biological like the zerg, nor does it have all the metallic junk like the terrans. I am just so very sick of seeing space platform after space platform.... Someone seriously needs to make something that is not industrial themed.
uhh, Shakuras? Aiur? Bel'Shir? and maybe that Xel'naga ship thing the campaign had (also in the editor)
I guess for the moment its all about temples and crystals for protoss.
