Get your best names battle-ready: the Roleplay-PvP Ruleset becomes available at Early Name Reservation on Oct 27!
ALT Headline text over a semi-blurred background of a beaten path through a beautiful forest. Headline text reads “ROLEPLAY-PVP RULESET CONFIRMED” under the World of Warcraft: Forever logo. An ornate border frames the image.

You and your left-wing virtue signaling are so freaking out of touch with reality it's not even funny...
Things Blizzard found acceptable in the 2000's :
- Collaborated with South Park to make "Make Love, Not Warcraft", with the main character named LOVE2SPWGE
- A culture of competitiveness where spitting on the corpses of your opponents was deemed a learning lesson to try harder.
- Tea bagging when someone refused to release to let them know you're kind of the hill.
- Barrens chat. No futher context needed.
Things Blizzard finds acceptable today :
- Non-binary dragonkin who lecture players on why they should not assume someone's gender.
- A homosexual quest giver who's story is forced into the game, with absolutely no other reason than "minority representation" in an expansion about dragons.
- Social contracts and left-wing ideology pumped full throttle into their social media and game experience so that all immersion is removed and you're literally playing a fantasy world in a real world radical-left California environment.
What an absolute lost cause you are. The players never changed, you just evolved into some ultra-woke propaganda gaming company over the years. Blizzard built this culture that you now hate so much, and you want us to jump on the radical left sinking ship with you...no thanks.
It was only offensive when you went full blown DEI. Saying anything to the contrary is one of your "little white lies."
Be a better developer.

I'm seeing a lot of discourse about who WoW Forever is being made for and while I cannot speak for anyone else on the team I can speak for myself. I am making WoW forever for the classic gamer and for the millions of people who have had their accounts lapse over the years because they were not satisfied with changes that were made to the game. Whether those changes were to the art style, the story, social aspects, game design, or changes to their favorite class.
I did not spend the last year of my life relearning and mastering how to do things like we did it 20+ years ago for retail players. I could have taken it easy and just kept doing things like I had done for the past 8 years on retail...because I was much more familiar with it and it actually takes a lot less time to do (height maps on textures do a ton of heavy lifting). Because the reality is that the majority of retail players wouldn't care and would probably actually prefer it. But I felt I had a duty to uphold an artistic vision and integrity that millions of people expect from us. But not just for our players, but for my co-workers past and present who worked on it over 20 years ago. If I could not create something that resembled their work then I failed not only them...but myself.
Please do not take this as me throwing any shade at retail players or the retail team because I am one myself...but I wanted to make Forever as authentic of a Vanilla experience as possible. This involves making decisions wildly different than retail. It means holding the line against changes that create a domino affect down the road. It means keeping friction and inconveniences in the game. It means finding friends and forming groups with strangers and being social!! Because WoWs social aspects have always been the pillar of the game and over the years it has slowly been chiseled away at with changes that allow you play alone.
Since the day I started working on the Riverglades I have lived by three sayings.
"Convenience is the death of the journey."
"If you're making a game for everyone then you're making it for no one."
"Every change we make incurs a debt to the authenticity of the game and sooner or later that debt will be paid."
These are my core beliefs and I had a specific group of people I was targeting with my work. These beliefs cannot be shaken and I will try to hold the line against anything that goes against them and will continue to pester the team about things that feel out of place.
That being said, my hope is that Forever will pull in as many people as possible, whether you are a retail gamer, a classic gamer, someone who hasn't played in years, or even a new player. I hope you can all remember what made this game so special in the first place and that starts with understanding why we are so passionate about keeping it authentic.

Turkish President Erdogan to the United Nations:
“Today, Gaza is not only the world's largest graveyard for children. It is also the place with the highest rate of child amputations in the world.
Gaza has become the most inhumane and shameful concentration camp of our time.”
Erdogan then called on every country to increase the pressure on Israel to end the genocide.

I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.

I predicted they’d call off Congress until the election to stop our new Epstein bill.
Johnson said on TV that was “stupid” and “nonsensical.”
But then he got a call from “upstairs” and canceled Congress from the middle of September until the election.

Trump faked y’all out yesterday. He didn’t implement Country of Origin Labeling for Beef.
He signed an EO to commission a study that will report back after the election and after we’ve imported 300,000 tons of foreign beef.
I’m the only R who’s actually voted to keep MCOOL.

On the House floor tonight, I read the names of several Epstein coconspirators who should be investigated and prosecuted.
I also began collecting 218 signatures for the discharge petition to force a vote on Epstein Files Transparency Act II.

"Pronto la gente (pobre) ya no podrá tener hijos, supongo que eso sería fantástico. Podríamos diseñar nuevos humanos en un laboratorio".
Mette-Marit, nueva reina de Noruega, aparece en los archivos de Epstein, alegrándose de que los pobres no puedan tener hijos en un futuro y que se puedan crear humanos perfeccionados a través de laboratorios, al estilo raza superior que hablaba Hitler.
Así es la nobleza europea, clasista y racista que darían la bienvenida a otro Hitler dando palmas con las orejas.

The media is so in bed with Israel that NBC News ain't even reporting on their own journalists getting their asses beaten up and injured by Israeli settlers!
🚨#BREAKING: NBC News crew reportedly beaten with clubs by Israeli settlers in the West Bank, leaving five journalists injured and their camera smashed.

Tucker Carlson just aired footage of an American father trying to visit the hillside where his son-an American citizen-was beaten to death by Israeli settlers.
Settlers blocked him. Attacked him. Slashed his tires. Chased his vehicle.
Then the Israeli military showed up-not to stop the settlers, but to harass the father and the journalists.
American citizens are being murdered in the West Bank by Israelis with American weapons-and no one in Washington will say a word.
