      Yeah, the Blizzard a lot of us grew up with is truly dead and gone.

        People do not understand that company name means nothing. The OG people who were the heart and soul of Blizzard are long gone. Blizzard is just a name now.

          Absolutely but companies can retain the culture they were originally set up under if they actively work to do that.

      Orcs and Humans were put into direct conflict by the opening of a portal by evil wizards. To fight for their homeland doesn’t make them scumbags, just brave fighters doing their best to follow orders, stand in the right places at the right times, and chop down whatever stands between them and safety.
