"I cried all night." These were the final moments of World of Warcraft in China
Butcher79
It's been three days since the shutdown of World of Warcraft servers in China (and all other Blizzard games except Diablo Immortal), but many Chinese still cannot come to terms with this situation.
And for them it is hardly surprising. The closure of the largest MMORPG in the largest gaming market (and gamers) in the world is something that should not have happened. But it happened, causing millions of Chinese to mourn the loss hieroglyphs, which they spent thousands of hours on, and WoW itself was an integral part of their daily lives.
(Of course, Blizzard is going back to China after looking for a new publisher, but WoW isn't there at the moment and won't be there for much longer)
The Chinese are complaining on their social networks (HERE), what World of Warcraft meant to them and how hard they are going through right now.
"When I woke up, I still didn't want to take [it]."
"I cried all night because the game crashed"
"World of Warcraft is like a first love, I really can't forget it"
“It was not just a game. It is also the memory of a whole generation.”
“In the conflict between Blizzard and NetEase, the players suffered the most”
“Yesterday I looked at all the maps that I have visited in the game over the years and remembered that time. I've been playing on the official server for 10 years, and on the classic server for 3. From my youth to middle age, Warcraft has accompanied me in countless good moments.
Talking to friends on the server, I imagined that we could play here until we retire.”
These were the last moments of the Chinese World of Warcraft:
World of Warcraft China closed last Wednesday after nearly 15 years in business.
The reason for the closure was not a popular downturn, but the lack of contract renewal between Blizzard and NetEase and the subsequent conflict between the two companies.
From the words of the CEO of NetEase we conclude that it was rather Blizzard's fault: "One day, when we can tell what happened behind the scenes, developers and players will have a whole new level of understanding of how much damage a dash can do.».
