WoW Fans Bash South Park Episode

10 Oct, 2006, 2:00 pm IST | by Nikhil Singh |

When South Park producers Matt Stone and Trey Parker announced the making of the recently aired 'Make Love, Not Warcraft' episode in collaboration with Blizzard, WoW Fans were ecstatic. South Park's creative team dealt with the parody really well, making it a laugh-fest that appealed to the gaming community. But as the saying goes 'you can't keep everyone happy', and that's exactly what happened here. As Digg.com pointed out, WoW geeks all over kept an eye on every minute detail in the episode and totally bashed it in this Wikipedia article.

Here are a few comments from the article:

"Trailers for this episode show Stan and Kyle in what appears to be the Undercity, right after Kenny is killed. In the airing of the show, they were in Goldshire."

"When Randy gives Stan the Sword of 1000 Truths, he is able to talk to Stan even though Stan isn't using his headset microphone—although the animators used headsets as a visual clue that the boys were communicating via the computer, headsets are not the only way to communicate via PC. There could be a desktop mic or one built in to the monitor, etc."

"This guy's character is shirtless and wears a helmet, boots and gloves. EDIT: He is seen casting Fire Blast and Arcane Explosion in Westfall(mage only spells). However, summoning scorpions is not possible with a Mage."

"Cartman's character is the main tank and wields an Unyielding Maul. He is the leader of the boys' group and is always the last killed. His armor color is the same as his jacket. He is a warrior, but when you see his actionbar, it looks like a Rogues actionbar (It has Eviscrate and Stealth)."

I am a hardcore WoW fan too and having seen the episode I disagree with the other fans b*tched about it like they did. It was a good effort; keep it up Matt and Trey!
