BlizzCon 2014: 4 Things That BlizzCon Did Right

MMOGames writes: "Blizzcon is one of the biggest self-proclaimed nerd conventions in the world—a place where names like Yrel, Maraad, and Vol’jin mean something more than Tolkien-esque sneeze word nonsense, where orcs and humans live together in terse, uncomfortable harmony and shouts of “For the Alliance!” and “For the Horde!” are muffled only by screams of “For Azeroth!” It is a refuge for Warcraft, Starcraft, and Diablo players that allows best friends to meet face-to-face for the first time. And though I may not fully understand it, I can appreciate it. Blizzcon is one of the most touching experiences I have ever seen. Watching people from around the globe embrace each other with no regard for race, gender, nationality, disability, or financial background is truly moving."
