Sometimes when a player of World of Warcraft dies in the real world, their friends will erect a memorial in-game. And here’s a video that highlights just a few.
When I first saw the following on Kotaku, I thought the tributes were for characters that had passed away, not the people who controlled them. So instead of goofy causes of death, like eaten by a dragon or smother, it’s something very real and not exactly funny, like cancer.
I know it’s an odd choice to kick a Monday off with, though I’m confident many will appreciate the clip nonetheless. Also, when I die, I hope some blue wizard shows up to my gravesite and does a spell so flowers grow and deer can graze upon the grass that’s nearby…
But still, I can’t help but be reminded of the follow, of the epic WoW funeral crashers. Perfect for those who want a hearty laugh, especially after the rather somber and admittedly depressing video above.
For those who don’t know the details: someone beloved in a clan passed away (again, in the real world), so everyone decided to have a funereal in game. Thing is, it took place in a PvP server, and because they decided not to come armed (for whatever reason), it left them WIDE open.
It also features the best use of a Misfits song, ever…
