World of Warcraft Vice President & Executive Producer Holly Longdale spoke to ComingSoon about the game's 20th anniversary celebration.
celebrating its 20th anniversary, Blizzard Entertainment’s participation in the increidble Netflix documentary The Remarkable Life of Ibelin, and how the game has continued to bring players together
These are some remarkable examples, and I love that you mentioned the accessibility support and the whole a11y movement within gaming has been really great to see. This is a game where foundationally you’re better together and that if you find other people, your life is gonna be that much better. I think those foundations continue and we’re always looking at ways to build on that. Community is everything. The other half of that too is, I’ve seen it firsthand in my roles on the team, this idea that community is everything we listen to, the players’ feedback has been absolutely critical to us in the past two to three years.
First of all, when you, it’s not just when you hear the story, but when you meet his family, like Robert , I met Robert first. You cannot separate your heart from the incredible story of Mats and his family, and that you have a family also, particularly in Robert, who’s now an advocate for gaming, and that it can save lives and can give purpose and can give comfort and safety and build meaningful relationships.
It really is. Just knowing that Mats’ guild, Starlight, all came together to enjoy each other’s company and certainly to support Mats after he had passed. It’s something we remind ourselves of every single day that it’s not just that we are global game players around the world play differently, and based on the culture they’re in, they can play differently. So we’re constantly trying to be wiser, and be able to serve our communities globally better, ultimately over time.
