The Guild visits Blizzard HQ

Blizzard sent them home with lots of swag, too. I was under the impression, especially given the comments on our last Guild post, that we weren't really sure that the game these guys were playing was World of Warcraft -- they've never said the name, as far as I know, and we've never seen any character shots. But Blizzard disagrees, apparently -- they've very sure The Guild is playing WoW, and they gave them a super nice tour for being a part of the game and the community.

The Guild has never been about any specific game the beauty of it is that it could fit to any MMO. Blizzard are probably just being nice. You know they do that sometimes. And besides, I'm sur ethe guild Website gets a lot of hits and now they are showing good PR for Blizzard. It's not that hard. Personally I'd love to have Felicia Day write the WoW movie. I expect it would be like nothing I ever imagined. :D

I know that Felicia Day confirmed at one point that she's a WoW addict.

Check out the fourth podcast of "How I WoW" (http://www.howiwow.org/) ... she used to be a hardcore raider pre-BC, but had to give it up to "have a life".

Not only did she confirm that she was a WoW addict, but also that her first monologue about the advice from her therapist is true.
The podcast may not be expressly about WoW, but there is no denying, with her as the writer, its inspiration is directly drawn from World of Warcraft.

Loved her in Buffy - love her in the guild. Hope she gets a paying gig out of it!

Me too! She ought to write as well.

Oh dear - they've been slashdotted. You guys are going to have to start warning the sites you link to, or find someone to create a mirror.

Oh no! You've made a typo!
You said "They've very sure The Guild is playing..."
Should be They're.
Also, Felicia Day is a goddess. Mostly because she played a 'lock... >_>

Did manage to find a single ingame shot from the guild posted on the website.

The only real way The Guild tries to distinguish its game from WoW is they sometimes mention dexterity. However, all fantasy MMORPGs are time vacuums for nerds, right? :)

First 16 seconds of the first video:
"there is a gnome warlock in my living room"
Kinda gives the impression they are playing World of Warcraft. Considering she is referring to "Zaboo" a fellow guild member. L2DoHomework =)
