Really cool to have a twitch drop available – and end – last-minute before launch without giving anyone any warning. A twitch drop that actually will interact with one of the coolest features of Forever (campfires).
Yeah, I’m really happy now with 25 minutes left to launch. I didn’t expect to get in when the servers open because I know what a launch day is like, but at least people could have been excited about a cool toy as well instead of bitter that we missed it.
I am dealing with Blizzard never sending me my three launch codes. Literally never got it and it’s not in any folder of my email.
idek how to get it.
Well it’s not clear that you even can now. See articles on wowhead. TLDR: they did a stream of someone making a quality cosplay replica of a new weapon and if you were watching at the end you’re supposed to get a toy for Forever. Cool enough, sure, but I was already amped for the game. Now I’m just grumpy.
I swear to god they don’t think things through.
Honestly kind of miffed on this too, we aren’t even at launch and FOMO fever begins, I can’t even start the game as a collector with everything.
This is a bad sign of how to start things out. Thought the whole point was not missing out on things
Can’t say I’m surprised, but c’mon Blizzard seriously? This seems so antithetical to the Forever vision and it’s not even out yet!
The problem with twitch drops, is that you have to go on twitch… shudder
Remember to be nice, and not to play on what you consider a main… You might just end up with an army of 14 year olds that want you dead because you stole their favorite streamer’s chest of apples and cloth.
Wow did ANYONE get this? I didn’t even know there was a stream or a drop. I didn’t see this mentioned anywhere. How was anyone supposed to see this?
I mean it’s just a toy but like…I would have tuned in for it. That’s just dumb.
I got mine too!

That’s because the drop wasn’t announced. It just popped up at the end for anyone watching. Pure asinine move on Blizzard’s part there.
Sorry if you’ve checked this already, but if you go to your bnet account overview and click on “Warcraft Forever Collection” in your transaction history, they should be there.
I just joined the stream but only see faction badges available as drops. Can’t even redeem them because it says to follow the channel which I did but it’s not registering. I’m already behind before launch, great.
Edit: nevermind, the faction badges are for purchasing a subscription to the wow twitch channel, lol. A monthly sub, a pre order pack, and you want me to sub to your stream? Should I make you the beneficiary of my 401k?
Unless they didn’t really want that many people to have it. Just a small dedicated few. Makes it more rare. idk
I’m kinda salty cause it sounds neat but it is what it is.
Worse than the dentist tbh
Was watching sporadically through out and I didn’t get nothing.
There should be a rerun since it’s obvious Blizzard dropped the ball both in terms of no announcement and technical bugs.
Hilarious though that a company that was acquired for around $75 billion has to run almost a minute of ads on Twitch.
a toy that makes you change the campfire color, acording to wowhead
What a great way to counter criticism that the game is starting to revolve around streaming than to make a limited edition, secret in-game item for people that already live on twitch. Just slap me why don’t you.
I have nothing of value to add that has not already been said - as a collector at heart, this is depressing. I would have happily tuned into the stream if they had just announced it.
Shame on you, Blizz.
