Cheap WOW TBC Classic Gold - WoW developer Blizzard will be removing outdated and sexually tinged jokes from the game

World of Warcraft developer Blizzard Entertainment is undertaking efforts to make its company and its games more inclusive and welcoming, including “immediate action in Azeroth to remove references that are not appropriate for our world,” the studio announced Tuesday. The statement comes one week after California announced it is suing Blizzard and its parent company, Activision Blizzard, for gender-based discrimination and sexual harassment of its employees.

Changes to the names of two achievements have surfaced in an early build of the upcoming 9.1.5 patch. Many of the achievements’ names in the game are based on wordplay, puns, and pop culture references, and some of these names are in bad taste.

At least two jokes will be removed, both being the names of achievements for completing actions in-game. One currently called “My Sack is Gigantique” will be renamed to “My Storage is Gigantique”, while another, “Bros. Before Ho Ho Ho’s” will change to “Holiday Bromance”.

It's less specific than Overwatch's equivalent statement, but a Blizzard spokesperson confirmed to PC Gamer that "the in-game references to Jesse McCree, Luis Barriga, and Jon LeCraft will be removed from World of Warcraft." All three are former Blizzard employees who recently departed the company.

In its statement, the World of Warcraft team said it is seeking “guidance” from team members in “internal work to protect marginalized groups and hold accountable those who threaten them.” The team added, “We also want to take immediate action in Azeroth to remove references that are not appropriate for our world. This work has been underway, and you will be seeing several such changes to both Shadowlands and WoW Classic in the coming days.”

These are minute changes, and Blizzard will have a lot to work on before they can fully and satisfactorily address what seems to be a deeply entrenched problem. There are still months before the 9.1.5 patch is going to be fully implemented, so the full extent of the changes still remains to be seen. But, as far as first steps go, it’s a decent start.

The removals come as part of actions to address allegations of widespread sexual harassment at parent company Activision Blizzard. Other actions have included plans to remove references to real-world developers from the names of in-game characters.

Blizzard has also seen the departure of senior staff on Diablo IV and World of Warcraft, the studio’s head of HR, and Blizzard president J. Allen Brack.
