That BlizzCon attendee who called Blizzard out on an error in the World of Warcraft lore has gotten his fifteen minutes of fame with a widely covered video that’s garnered more than 2.6 million views on YouTube. That was only the beginning.
Red Shirt Guy, as shown in the screenshot above, will live on forever — or until we all forget — in WoW. Oh, and Falstad Wildhammer was implemented into the game, too. So really, it’s a victory for this avid fan on two fronts. Pretty darn cool, if you ask me.
Clearly, it’s nice that they not only fixed the problem, but they had a sense of humor about it. For an industry that makes videogames, this sure is an all-too-uncommon occurrence.
