Give HPal it’s range back
Troll or otherwise, I have to admit that I wouldn’t mind having more representation, be it subtle or less so. While I don’t think Blizzard should make it a goal to bend over backwards for us and try to get more token characters, seeing more LGBT+ characters this time around was kind of nice, not gonna lie.
THIS. I want my denounce back so badly ;_;

i fire myself
I restore Ursoc’s soul
— with the ‘Claws of Ursoc’ that are said to contain his spirit.
I do so through a questline - going to the ‘other-side’ of the Shadowlands, a strange reflection within each realm exists –
Ardenweald
You go to Ardenweald first, to collect the comatose broken spirit of Ursoc - whom is among many other lingering broken spirits within the realm, which is dangerously filled with traps & puzzles - birthed from the memories of the broken spirits.
However after recovering the broken spirit of Ursoc, you still still require various reagents – ‘Rift-stone of the Void’ along with ‘Rift-stone of the Light’.
Bastion
You go to Bastion afterwards, to find the ‘Rift-stone of the Void’ when you enter the reflection realm, you see it’s a darkened sky with blue-hued grass plains yet still beautiful in its own right. You find the leader of the Kyrian-reflection realm ‘Archon’ – named: Agthia.
– She tells you she once held the riftstone as a reminder both grim, and yet joyful in her new found purpose. That of which she gave it to a new pupil of hers, who required much guidance & penance which was found - and now brings ‘doomed’ souls into comforting realms within ‘The reflection of the Shadowlands’.
– You find this pupil, to discover it is none other than Devos! She gives you the riftstone willingly, as an apology and a thanks - for paving the way to justice and aligning her purpose with an Archon & cause she considers worthy.
Revendreth
You then make your way to the ‘Riftstone of Light’ in Revendreth – When you enter the reflection realm there, you find it’s a strange reflection: The light envelops most of the land, yet the void has its embarkment in the zone that we knew as ‘The Ember Ward’ yet the residents of the reflection know as ‘The Grimfrost Garden’
– You notice many beings are not Venthyr but beings you’ve encountered before. One tells you, that if you have encountered their race before – you will see them as they see themselves, if not then as the Venthyr forms they held before their second ‘demise’.
– You are told to seek out ‘The Stonemason’ who knows where the riftstone is, and will help you obtain it. You find the Stonemason who is none other than ‘Edwin VanCleef!’
– Edwin reveals he was ‘killed’ by Denathrius when he was caught having stolen leaked information about them holding a Naaru and managed to send the information off to Renathal before having a flying sword descend upon him & waking up in this new realm.
– Edwin makes a deal with you, he’ll help you retain the sword if you relay a message to his daughter. Naturally, you accept the terms. You fight off Void remnants and come to a minor voidlord.
– It’s explained by VanCleef the Voidlord holds many souls within, when he is banished from the realm the souls will be released, including his wife.
– The Voidlord speaks: "I AM PANDEMONIUS! Returned, to claim this relic of power of which once unlocked - we can invade the light and their realm!! More to join our cause - more to revel in our victory over all realms!"
– You defeat Pandemonius, and the Riftstone of Light slowly falls down, as do a swarm of souls explode outward spreading throughout the sky. Edwin thanks you, tells you to take the riftstone & that he’s off to find his wife, reminding you of your promise to keep in delivering his message
You find yourself unable to leave the reflection realm! The soul of Kilrogg finds and tells you, with his eye-of-realms there is a place used to reincarnate into the physical plane - souls bound to the reflection will either reform or reincarnate without memory, however a mortal should simply push through the veil unscathed in all details. You make your way to the ‘Realm of Great Rifts’ –
Maldraxxus
You come to the reflective realm of Maldraxxus.
– There, those who enter seeking to reincarnate or reform without the protection & ferrying of the reflection-realms Kyrian — have to proceed a ‘Right of Passage’
– They decree if slain, not to worry - you will simply reappear or reform … albeit it may take some many years before you do, and sometimes you’ll reform as a flesh carving peon from the non-reflective Shadowlands realm in Maldraxxus - so fight carefully!
– You defeat your foes, one by one before coming up to the final foe, where you’re given the next quest of your chain ‘How many times do we have to teach you this lesson old man?’ – The final foe shouts out “YOU!? AGAIN!” – It appears to be a human mage, yet he suddenly proclaims: "I, KEL’THUZAD WILL LIVE AGAIN! Your bones will pave the way to my ascension once more!"
– You defeat Kel’Thuzad and are granted the passage way to the rift of Azeroth.
Azeroth
You make your way into Azeroth and bind the broken-soul of Ursoc along with the spirit within the claws in hand, Ursol there using his staff to gather various magics of the elements & nature – drawing out the piece of Ursoc’s spirit within the claws and puzzling it with the broken spirit then binding them with the riftstone of light & void - FLASH!! — a booming light appears and you see a sleeping cub. Ursol approaches the cub:
– “There there brother. No further harm or corruption will ever threaten you again - I swear to it … Thankyou mortal. I will tender to my young twin in the dream. Should you ever need my assistance. You need only ask.” – Ursol.
From each noteable NPC you encounter throughout this questline you will attain a quest-begin-item for a unique pet or mount for each hand-in with special dialog features. (Such as Edwin VanCleef delivering message to his daughter)

Save up like 2 mil, split it 50/50 with my immediate family, transfer mine to a bank overseas, burn the company headquarters to the ground, and begin a new life in Europe.
Probably get into investing or something and see how it shakes out.
The Occulus would be a 40 man raid made with Zombie Dragons
- Partner with Lego
- More games using existing IPs everywhere.
- Partner with better toys/clothing brands… get my crap in Target and Wal-mart.
- Work with either Netflix, Disney or HBOmax on shows
The IP is what’s valuable… not the games.

Of Blizzard or Activision Blizzard? Cause the CEO of Blizzard still has to answer to someone else besides the shareholders.
I’d want to do things like cut margin by 25% minimum and put it to the teams as a flat raise. Make it so that they get paid fair wages and market value without the need for bonuses. Include lower pressure for sales goals and keep X amount bonuses (ie no "must have 2 million sales by 90 days or cut funding for next project.)
The term “must win battles” will never be said. If it is presented, instant terminate by said employee unless it is in reference to a part of a game.
Freely and openly support the labor unions. Removing all barriers from joining if they wish, but also trying to make the workplace better without the need. See last comment as an example.
Initiate a pitch program where any employee can pitch a project at anytime to a board. If that project looks promising, give them the ability and manpower to flush it out.
Improve / hire more for Communications departments. Up marketing’s budget instead of relying on streamers. Have ads and commercials to help fill gaps.
Improve / hire more QA. Install a third party QA department that is no overseen by any employee to get unbias feedback. Hire “average Joe’s” for remote work for QA.
No name / no ethnicity / no gender hiring. Recruiters / hiring managers only get to see qualified skills and experience. Must base their hiring off of that information.
Limit monetary gains through the online stores. No max gear, no max level character, minimal boosting, ect while also discouraging agains using it. No NFTs or block chain for any game.
I probably could think of more, but all these would definitely get me fired in about 24 hours. It’s about the profitability of the company and being able to sale it as such. You habe to follow wha the shareholders want and keep making money.

See how many of my ideas are blocked by shareholders.
But likely add a lot more customization and more racial themed gear, mounts, weapons and glyphs.
No idea about raids, though. So I’d end up getting a raid tier out until reminded we need some raids for the 8% of the playerbase. But it’d be too late to avoid a backfire of both, raiders and non raiders on the bandwagon alike.
I’d make Baine badass and Warchief, and the Tauren the major force of the Horde just like the Night Elves the major force of the Alliance, as Humans vs Orcs has been for years and is boring already.
And laugh for 5 minutes straight if I am asked about High Elves in an interview.
“Burn it.”

Create an option on the forum that lets you block out certain words or topics you don’t want to see. Mostly the political ones. Also, have an option that lets you completely remove other playable characters from your screen if you don’t wish to see them, like the Voidlist mod from FF14, I blocked so many people on that game so I never have to see their degenerate glamours.
I mean I didn’t mean that kinda fire but… /j
That picture is disturbing.

Do you HAVE to respond to me? No but you do anyways. Now begone bigot.
One thing the wing tips have in common is feeling that they have a right to say things but those who don’t agree do not have the right to respond.
It really is amazing how similar the wing tips really are. Some times I wonder if left right is circular and the wing tips meet at the far end.
also bring back mountain dew game fuel. with 2 sodas alleria windrunner and veressa windrunner for alliance and sylvanas windrunner and liadrin for the horde. GO GO LADIES OF THE ALLIANCE AND THE HORDE! it would be blueberry for veressa. grape for alleria. lemon for sylvanas and lime for liadrin.
Nothing except make money
CEOs doesn’t really do much more than that
I would go out and condemn any sort of anti-LGBTQ+ behaviour and talk about how it is more important now than ever to take that hard-stance on this issue
But… CEOs doesn’t do anything in relation to the game’s direction unless it is about maximizing shareholder’s income
Now if I was the game director or head designer, then I’d have some ideas! But not many of 'em would be much different than what WoW currently is or have been doing since Legion
Because they keep hiring workers base on their appearance rather their skill?
That’s why some of companies end up losing money. Just keep pushing with name calling and company will make less money.
Sell the company to Microsoft and retire.
