Nostalrius Begins - Quality wow vanilla realm (1.12)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SLfELz-rzJs

start from 9:30 he talks about vanilla wow, and he seems to genuinely miss the good ol' days, and even got a little emotional, as if he knew his days at blizz wasn't going to be long. Most fans speculate that he left because he wasn't happy about the direction Blizzard was heading towards as a company.

For those who didn't know,
Rob Pardo was the Chief Creative Officer at Blizzard Entertainment, resigning on July 3, 2014. He is credited with designing Starcraft, Diablo 2, Warcraft 3, Vanilla WoW, TBC etc. In 2006, he was named by Time Magazine as one of the 100 most influential people in the world.(I assume for his work on vanilla wow)

I wonder if he would support us. That bow at the end is such a contrast to a certain "youthinkyoudobutyoudont" dickhead .

some-one like this must surely be proud of what we recreated here. I can't understand why they would shut us down. The blizz legal department probably never even played wow.

I know right? by the end of the video it looks like he was about to tear up, and that bow really moved me.

He is on twitter...

if anyone uses twitter we could cut this video from 9:30 to end and link it to him, plus the link to the petition and maybe the most tear jerking Nostalrius last moments video on youtube?

Surely he must know or let him know asap!

that's the most tear jerking one. although i laugh through tears when axiom wipes in MC - love them <3

He seems like someone who may get on board, people with twitter accounts should reach out to this guy and ask what he thinks. He really did seem like he was getting a bit choked up towards the end there, seems like a nice guy.

Kaplan probably thinks something similar as well. However he pragmatically decided to just abandon the project and go to Overwatch years ago. Probably to no longer see the aberration that this game has become. Won't comment of course, having a job there means he just can't deviate from company policy, lame.

Still better than Afrasiabi. Proudly watching MMORPGs go from EQ99 to WoD and contributing it to the process. Souless falls short.
