Big shot of nostalgia for gamers World of Warcraft ? It’s the big return of one of the fans’ favorite elements!
The return of oldschool GMs in World of Warcraft?
If you play on classic WoW servers, you may have already encountered characters in GM outfits in the streets of major cities since the start of the game’s 20th anniversary event. This is no coincidence, Blizzard wanted to please players with a little bit of nostalgia from the old moderators.
In fact, after Wrath of the Lich Kingthe in-game intervention of these moderators has stopped, in favor of responses plus discreetwithout seeing a GM appear in front of you.
As many fans report, these GMs are everywhere in the game and even pose. Enough to please long-time fans, only problem, it might not last very long!
A message from the boss of World of Warcraft for the game’s 20th anniversary!
If some doubted the authenticity of these characters dressed in bleuthe World of Warcraft teams wanted to make sure that everyone was aware: these are indeed employees of Blizzard who lend themselves to the role of GM during the event. Holly Longdale, boss of World of Warcraft wanted to share the information on the networks.
“Congratulations on World of Warcraft’s 20th anniversary today! With the 20th Anniversary Classic Realms this week, we did things the old-fashioned way with the appearance of GMs – all from WoW and our sister teams. For what ? Because we love you! With the GM dresses of the time! #warcraft“
In the comments, fans are delighted with the idea, after all, for several days already, players have been sharing more and more images that they took with GMs, like a small event.
“I’ve loved the GM screenshots people have been posting, it’s like there are secret cryptids lying around and it adds to the excitement knowing the team is actively here around us“
If this idea was a hit with players, some dream that this feature will be back for good, after all, seeing a GM when you pay a ticket has a certain feeling. However, there may be little chance of seeing these GMs again on a regular basis. The moderation of online games is increasingly automatic and many concerns raised by players are judged without the need for direct intervention from a moderator.
On Blizzard’s side, it would seem quite surprising if resources were reinvested in the moderation of retail or classic World of Warcraft servers, although fans would be more than delighted.
